I have heard about the so-called 180-degree rule. In short: when setting the fps and using the manual mode, set the shutter time so that the last digits of the shutter time equal double the framerate value. For instance, when shooting at 30 fps, the shutter time should be 1/60. When shooting at 60 fps, the shutter time should be set to 1/120. This helps to get a motion blur similar to how the human eye perceives movement, thus making movements on video look smoother and more natural.
Also, I strongly recommend getting an ND filter set for shooting in bright conditions. Using ND16, ND32 and even ND64 on bright days helps keeping the video and pictures from being overexposed while still enabling to maintain the ISO and shutter speeds settings at desired levels. I bought myself the PolarPro Standard filters set (5 ND filters and a polarizer) and have been happy with them so far.
One more tip: if you plan to utilize the ActiveTrack when shooting videos, it tends to work better with 1080p modes. At 4K, it might become jittery and lose track.
And yes, the video above is very good at demonstrating the different gimbal modes. :-)
