The main changes are that the motors are 20% more powerful and it cut overall weight by 25%. Both things make a dramatic difference in performance. One fan is filmmaker Keith Knittel who put together a great list of 10 tips and features that will help anyone get better shots with the RS 2.

Doing this freehand generally creates chaos, but mount the Ronin RS 2 in position with RavenEye neatly slotted in place on its mount under the gimbal and you have an incredibly powerful tool. It’s been a bumpy road for the end user, never truly being able to know which gimbal is best to invest money into and when but with the release of the DJI RS-2 and RSC-2, it has never been more clear that DJI gets it done. Despite the relaxed rake angle, any anticipation of sluggishness is completely unfounded. The broad handlebar, providing excellent leverage, coupled with the upright riding position and the manageable 160kg kerb weight, ensures effortless navigation through traffic. While your upper body remains erect, your legs are positioned forward, giving the impression of a heel-toe shifter, but it's equipped with a toe-only unit, which can feel a bit awkward when adjusting your ankle beneath the lever. The first few cycles of the battery didn’t seem to be super long-lasting, but my guess was this was because it was a new battery and needed to be “broken in” for the system. If not, well, it’s also possible we got a bad batch of batteries? Either way, while the battery life has improved from the original Ronin, we didn’t seem to ever get the full 10-12 hours of battery life as claimed in the marketing materials. We’ve heard from others using this gimbal who are seeing near that life out of each charge, so we’re not gonna strike this as too heavy of a negative; however, for those out there planning on investing in this system, we also recommend getting additional batteries, just to be safe. It’s always better to have and not need than to need and not have! Conclusion

In use, the power of the small motor is incredible and enables you to easily capture that professional, smooth fluid motion that these devices have been designed to enable. DJI RS 2 and RSC 2 expand on their predecessors’ suite of creative modes, movements, and features with tools to help capture content that stands out, including: As with the previous Ronin-S, there are several possibilities for wired connections; these include Video transmission/follow focus motor port (USB-C), RSS camera control port (USB-C) and Follow Focus motor port (USB-C). As all of these ports are USB-C, so I was glad to see that DJI has marked which port is which. While the system is smaller, better designed, and much easier to use, there’s still a lot of excess in cables poking out of the setup, especially if you’ve connected all the accessories. This is by no means a deal breaker, but moving forward, and especially with the advances in wireless technology, it’d be a very welcome addition to see these systems be able to connect without the use of all the USB cables Battery Life Wasn’t as Good as Expected

Multi-Functional Accessories Series

It’s a really neat solution, and the positioning is spot on. If you do want that side focus wheel, then there is an accessory available for an additional cost. What makes this feature so incredible is that with ForceMobile, a feature of the Ronin App, you can control the gimbal by moving your mobile. A new 1.4” color touchscreen on the rear of the RS 2 serves as a way to cycle through settings, camera data or even a live feed from the camera. Two onboard RSA ports can double as NATO ports, enabling the RS 2 to be used in conjunction with other DJI and third-party accessories, including jibs, car attachments, sliders, grips and remote controllers. DJI RSC 2 After getting their hands on the RS 2, the first thing they noticed was its smaller size and weight, which made it much easier to keep the stamina up for longer shoots. The SLR team used this gimbal on several shoots that were 4-6 hours a pop, and the reduced weight made it noticeably easier to handle over the course of the day.
