The DJI RS4 Gimbal Stabilizer Combo offers enhanced operational efficiency, native vertical shooting, and a broadened accessory ecosystem, making it an excellent tool for mirrorless camera users. Weighing only 2.4 lb, this gimbal can handle a load capacity of up to 6.6 lb, making it ideal for compact camera setups. The combo includes a Focus Pro Motor with a rod mount kit, a focus gear strip, a briefcase handle, and a carrying case. Teflon-coated axes reduce friction, resulting in smoother balancing and operation. Key features include a fine-tuning knob, an auto-locking OLED screen, and an RSA communication port for expanded accessory integration.
Second-Generation Quick Release Plate
The RS 4 retains the dual-layer quick release plates from its predecessor, making camera mounting and balancing quick and easy. The newly designed horizontal plate allows for faster transitions to native vertical shooting. A fine-tuning knob helps adjust the tilt axis for precise camera positioning, while added placement guides on the upper plate enhance security during mounting.
Automated Axis Locks (Second Generation)
With the upgraded automated axis lock system, a simple press of the power button unlocks all three axes, automatically expanding the gimbal in just two seconds. Pressing the button again locks the axes, simplifying transport and storage. The updated design also reduces locked-axis gaps, improving stability.
RSA Communication Port
The RSA communication port supports integration with Ronin series and third-party accessories, providing enhanced control and functionality. The DJI RS SDK protocol enables developers to create customized functions, future-proofing the RS 4 for additional capabilities.
Wireless Shutter Control
Thanks to Dual-Mode Bluetooth, the RS 4 offers wireless shutter control, eliminating the need for control cables. After the initial pairing, previously connected cameras automatically reconnect, allowing you to trigger video or photo capture with the stabilizer’s record button.
New DJI Focus Pro Motor
A USB-C port pairs the included Focus Pro Motor with the RS 4. Offering a 30% speed increase, the motor allows for smooth lens focusing via a dial and zoom control via a joystick.
Integrated Controls
A sliding mode switch allows you to easily toggle between Pan Follow, Pan and Tilt Follow, and FPV modes, with customizable FPV options such as 3D Roll 360, Portrait, or Custom. Motion-lapse, track, and panorama are additional intelligent functions, and you can customize the trigger button to control FPV mode for responsive axis tracking.
Fourth-generation RS Stabilization Algorithm
The RS 4 introduces a next-generation stabilization algorithm that significantly improves performance over the RS 3, excelling at vertical shooting, rapid movements, and low-angle shots with ease.
Auto-Locking OLED Screen
The RS 4’s fixed OLED touchscreen comes with an auto-lock feature to prevent accidental inputs. The screen dims while displaying the current gimbal and joystick status, conserving battery and reducing interruptions.
Integrated Monitoring and Control
Using the Ronin app, you can remotely adjust camera exposure settings or control the gimbal with a virtual joystick. With the Ronin Image Transmitter, you can even use a smartphone as a motion controller, adding flexibility to your camera movements.
Enhanced batteries and fast charging
The RS4’s battery grip features a cartridge design, making it easier to swap batteries and reducing storage space. The RS4 boasts a battery grip that allows for up to 12 hours of continuous shooting, and it supports 18W PD fast charging, allowing for full recharging in just 2.5 hours. You can even use the battery while charging, ensuring uninterrupted operation throughout long shoots.
