About this deal

The limit comes with larger cameras such as the Canon C100 MKII which is just too large, as it was with the Ronin-S. The one issue I did find was getting the initial positions of the arms correct. On the old Ronin-S, there was always a bit of a battle to subtly adjust the arms positions; this subtlety is even more difficult with these new carbon arms. 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

Want to see this stuff paired with the BMPCC 6k & DJIs new 3d autofocus system. I have 3 BMPCC6ks kitted out with all the Tilta gear, the DJI gear and an Aston Martin camera car myself. I am down for joint ventures and sponsorships in the NYC area. Nice videos guys!Another big change is the addition of professional RSA/NATO ports that enable the new RS 2 to be incorporated into larger, more complex rigs or control systems. There are lots of creative presets on board both gimbals, too, including the usual time-lapses and panoramas. But there's also a new option that's due shortly after launch – Time Tunnel will allow your camera to pull off a 360-degree roll while capturing a hyperlapse, which many cameras told us they were particularly excited about.

After 1 phantom, 1 Inspire Pro and 2 Mavics, my opinion is made: DJI is no more a professional company, I give up. The first major advantage of the new Ronin RS 2 is the size and weight; it’s smaller and lighter than the old Ronin-S. The weight reduction is welcome. However, I wasn’t so keen on the smaller and more compact sizing.

Compared with Ronin-S, the motors of DJI RS 2 are about 20% more powerful, while the gimbal weight is reduced by about 25%. Equipped with a 1.4-inch full-color touchscreen and redesigned built-in front dial, DJI RS 2 also supports more accessories than the Ronin-S. DJI has officially authorized Tilta with the development protocols for all the peripheral interfaces. All products have been carefully tested by the DJI engineering team as well as a series of test/development shoots to improve its design, operation, and durability. DJI’s new RS 2 and RSC 2 are more than just a single-handed gimbal. Improving upon the previous generation on every level, DJI has made their new gimbals more lightweight, intelligent, and with more options. The collaboration between Tilta and DJI has brought RS 2 and RSC 2 to a whole new level. We have worked for months to develop a range of tools for filmmakers looking to get the most out of their gimbal.

Through Tilta and DJI’s integrated collaboration, we are providing more robust operating system for the RS2 series. Customize your gimbal for productions of all levels with this new variety of accessories for the ultimate camera rig.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. 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 Utilizing technology from our Tilta Arm and forthcoming Hydra-Arm system, we have devised a more portable mounting solution that adapts the RS 2 for camera placement, stability, and portability that has usually been restricted to big budget productions. Multiple options of suction cups facilitate installations on car doors, car hoods, or any other flat surfaces. It functions like a Russian Arm and switches with ease from high angle to low angle, and many other positions; all within one take. The remote control hand unit is user friendly and supports remote run/stop. 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.

However, in use, you soon get used the layout but would recommend adding an arm to help with the handling. I use the Ronin-S at least once a week, and the additional side grip is the one accessory I couldn’t now do without. That’s not all it is also smaller, which has been made possible by the advances in technology. The new RS 2 measures in at 410 x 260 x 195mm including the grip but without the extension, grip added. 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.

If DJI RS 2 has a camera attached and is powered on while updating the firmware, make sure to protect the camera and lens as the motors will power off during the update.When DJI RS 2 is connected to Ronin RavenEye Image Transmission System, photos and videos are saved in two ways: Instantly you can feel that there is less room for manoeuvre than with the Ronin-S, and with the wires, screen and focus handle it all starts to feel a little cramped. You can also set a cutom option and enable or disable different axes. 3D Roll 360 moves it into the “flashlight” position and you can spin around the roll axis to create the spinning effect. And last is Portrait, which also goes into flashlight mode but supports vertical shooting. The gimbal is reportedly able to support a payload of up to 10lbs for up to 12 hours (if properly balanced). For the majority of our testing, the team used the Canon EOS R or R6 and the 24-105mm or the 14mm. This combo doesn’t come close to maxing out its motors, but no matter what we put on it, the motors gave no lag or resistance/strain. Unless you’re getting into big cinema rigs, the Ronin RS 2 seems capable of handling any dslr or mirrorless combo you can throw at it. Setup Is Easy
