The DJI RS 3 Series includes three different gimbals, the RS 3, RS 3 Pro and the RS 3 Mini. Building on the impressive features of the Ronin series, the DJI RS 3 Pro is an advanced, complete camera expansion platform that empowers videographers and provides integrated shooting solutions for professional crews. The DJI RS 3 offers a versatile and efficient shooting experience to both independent crews and solo creators. Sleek and lightweight, it provides professional stabilization and control that provides creative freedom and endless possibilities for users. The DJI RS 3 Mini is the first Mini version of the RS series. It is a small, lightweight handheld stabilizer that can hold a lot of weight. It works with most mirrorless cameras and lenses, and it has the same great stabilization as the RS 3 series. With DJI RS 3 Mini, you can make the most of your shooting skills and easily make professional videos.
RS 3 Pro uses extended carbon fiber axis arms to provide professional cameras additional balancing space, making it an ideal match for cameras like the Sony FX6 or Canon C70 with 24-70mm F2.8 lenses, allowing for more creative options.
The new Extended Lower Quick-Release Plate provides more stable camera mounting, and makes it easy to add a lens support for more secure configurations.
A fine-tuning slider for the tilt axis has been added to make the balancing process easier by allowing the camera to be moved forward or backward more accurately, down to the millimeter. The RS 3 Pro may be balanced with reduced friction and resistance, even when
The RS 3 provides wireless shutter control thanks to Dual-Mode Bluetooth, which saves time and effort with every use. After the initial Bluetooth pairing, you can control video and photo shooting by simply pressing the record button on the stabilizer. After the initial use, previously paired cameras will automatically reconnect, removing the need for a camera control cord.
Mounting a camera to the RS 3 is quick and easy with the dual-layered quick-release plates, with no need to re-balance the gimbal after swapping out a new battery or memory card.
When changing lenses, a newly incorporated fine-tuning knob on the tilt axis allows the camera to glide forward or backward with millimeter-grade precision, making precise balancing easier.
RS 3 lets you get up and running quickly. When the gimbal is powered off, you are able to start working in seconds; press and hold the power button, and the three axes unlock while the gimbal expands automatically. By pressing the power button once, the axes automatically lock and enter sleep mode, making transportation more efficient for users. Press and hold the power button and it will fold and lock automatically.
The RS 3 Pro's optimized structural design keeps its weight at 1.5 kg/3.3 lbs (including gimbal, battery grip, and dual-layered quick-release plates), yet its load capacity is a sturdy 4.5 kg/10 lbs, providing substantial support in a lightweight body.
Equipped with Dual-Mode Bluetooth technology, RS 3 Pro is able to achieve efficient and reliable wireless shutter control. You may control video and photo shooting by just pushing the record button on the stabilizer after the first Bluetooth hookup. The DJI RS3 helps save you time by automatically reconnecting previously paired cameras, saving you time every use.
By sliding the new Gimbal Mode Switch, you may choose among Pan follow, Pan and Tilt follow, and FPV modes. You may also change the FPV mode to 3D Roll 360, Portrait, or Custom to fine-tune your setup for a more quick and easy startup.
In comparison to the RSC 2, which has a black and white screen, the RS 3 has a 1.8-inch OLED full-color touchscreen with an 80% bigger display. With the revamped user interface, it also supports most Ronin app settings, offering straightforward and accurate control.
You may choose between Pan follow, Pan and Tilt follow, and FPV modes by sliding the new gimbal mode switch. The FPV mode selection is also customizable to 3D Roll 360, Portrait, or Custom, allowing you to adjust your equipment and get started quickly.
You can regulate zoom and focus by rotating the front dial. It can also be customized to control the shutter, aperture, ISO, or gimbal movements of the camera, making it ideal for single-handed use.
The RS 3 Pro arms, like the Ronin 2, are made from layered sheets of uncut carbon fiber. This makes it more sturdy and light than the jointed carbon fiber material used in the RS 2, allowing it to deal with even more demanding shooting circumstances.
RS 3 Pro delivers considerably improved stability in every condition thanks to the third generation of RS stabilization algorithms. According to laboratory testing, the RS 3 Pro has a 20% boost in stability over the RS 2, making it easier to manage low-angle shots, running scenarios, and moving between high and low positions.
When SuperSmooth mode is selected, the RS 3 Pro boosts motor torque to further improve stabilization, resulting in steady film even in fast-moving situations or when utilizing lenses with a focal length comparable to 100mm.
With the RS 3 Mini, the RS series has made a big step forward in terms of native vertical shooting. You can go from horizontal to vertical in an instant without any extra tools.
Just attach the standard Quick-Release Plate to the vertical arm of the gimbal, and you can make videos that work well on social media.
In Native Vertical mode, the RS 3 Mini has a much wider range of movement than other gimbals' portrait modes. Even the controls are the same as in horizontal mode. It is also easy to use the camera in the Upright, Underslung, Flashlight, and other modes.
A quick-release plate upgrade with two layers has an upper plate with a curved placement guide that keeps the camera from turning and coming loose. With clear mounting and locking marks, it will be easier to launch and store. It is also made to the ARCA standard, which makes it easy to switch between tripods.
The RS 3 Pro uses Ronin 4D's LiDAR focusing technology to make focusing simpler. Within a 14-meter range, the new LiDAR Range Finder (RS) can project 43,200 ranging points.
It also has a built-in camera with a 30 mm equivalent focal length and a broad FOV of 70°, which can handle focusing in most situations.
In contrast to traditional focusing technologies, the LiDAR focusing system does not rely on the subject's surface texture. This is especially beneficial in low-light situations or settings with several subjects, since it ensures a very steady focus.
Both Wide Mode and Spot Mode are supported. The range finder automatically identifies the subject and follows focus in Wide Mode. Users may manually frame or press the topic to concentrate in Spot Mode.
Cinematic autofocus on manual lenses is also achievable thanks to the combination of the LiDAR Range Finder and the new Focus Motor. Once you've pressed the M button on the gimbal, you may easily switch between manual and autofocus to match your demands in both modes.
After manual lens calibration, numerous lens calibration profiles may be saved in the focus motor, eliminating the need to re-calibrate before subsequent uses. Certain cinema lenses can even autofocus without calibration by connecting directly to the focus motor.
Users can alternatively connect the LiDAR Range Finder and focus motor directly to the camera and operate them independently of the gimbal, allowing for focusing on manual lenses and the use of an external battery.
The Ronin series' tracking has never been more responsive and precise. Without the Ronin Image Transmitter, the next-generation ActiveTrack Pro can read pictures straight from the camera embedded inside the LiDAR Range Finder (previously known as the Ronin RavenEye Image Transmitter). The LiDAR Range Finder also has a self-developed chip, identical to the one used by Ronin 4D, that increases ActiveTrack Pro's computing capability by more than 60 times when compared to ActiveTrack 3.0 on the Ronin Image Transmitter.
You may observe or frame the subject directly on the RS 3 Pro's OLED display while using ActiveTrack Pro. The live feed latency is decreased to just 40 ms, which is 60% faster than the Ronin Image Transmitter, enabling for quick tracking even when the subject moves quickly. It can recognise and track objects even when they are many and at a distance with the help of a neural network accelerator.
The revised briefcase handle is collapsible for easy storage and features a new ergonomic grip that makes installing and switching to Briefcase mode easier and faster. External displays may be connected to the built-in cold shoe mount and 1/4"-20 mounting holes for shooting assistance, making low-angle camera movements more intuitive.
When compared to the RSC 2, the new RS 3 battery grip has a cartridge design, making it easier to swap batteries and smaller for storage. The batteries can even be charged independently from the gimbal.
The new battery grip has a 12-hour runtime, which allows for continuous shooting throughout the day. It supports 18W PD fast charging and takes only 2.5 hours to charge. It can even be used while charging which enables the RS 3 to be powered practically indefinitely.
The next-generation DJI RS Focus Motor (2022) has three times increased torque (up to 1 Nm) and a 50% reduction in audible noise. This provides a smoother concentrating experience and reduces the influence on audio recording. It also has a quick-release construction that allows it to be assembled quickly and effortlessly without the use of any tools.
