# Follow Mode Settings

The most widely used mode of single operation is Follow mode where the gimbal operator controls to pan and tilt of the camera. The camera movement will mimic the user’s input from the top-mount while the footage remains stable. The follow mode can be configured to be either very linear and robotic, or smooth and cinematic.

Follow mode settings is available for Tilt axis and Pan axis.

SPEED

Defines how fast camera will follow the movement.

 SMOOTH

Smooth out the camera movement by adjusting this parameter. The higher the value is the smoother camera moves but at the expense of more delay in following the movements.

 WINDOW

When the movement is out of the window zone, the camera starts to move. Within the window zone, the camera maintains its direction.

 TILT LOCK

If this option is selected, the tilt axis will maintain its angle and only be controlled by remote control.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.gremsy.com/gimbals/general/gimbal-configuration/follow-mode-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
