What is a camera gimbal?

A gimbal is a device that allows smooth camera motion when handholding a

camera.

The DJI Ronin RS 2 is for small still cameras. It has three motors that balance

the movement of the camera. In ordinary use, the motors adjust to the

movement of the hand grip. Use the gimbal for travelling shots that follow a

subject or move around a subject.

You can also do special effects, like getting the gimbal to execute a series of

preprogrammed movements, follow the movement of a phone, or move

during timelapse photography.

The drawback, when using the gimbal, is the difficulty in operating exposure

and focus settings while shooting. You will want set up exposure before

recording and use autofocus.

About this CDA Quick Start Guide

This guide groups essential resources in one place, so you can quickly start using

the gimbal. It collects sources of information from the web. Some of the

procedures can be followed much easier in videos.

I make specific observations on using the gimbal with the Sony mirrorless cameras

and lenses in the CDA EV Depot and refer to specific menu settings in the Sony a7r

III camera. But you can use other cameras with similar settings.

Not all the features of the gimbal are covered in this guide.

I recommend the complete DJI user guide that can be found here:

https://www.dji.com/ca/downloads/products/rs-2

There a more concise paper DJI quick start guide in the bag, that is much less useful

that the complete user guide.

Setting up the Gimbal

DJI Ronin RS2

Warning about the gimbal motors

Don’t power on the gimbal until the gimbal is balanced and

the motors are unlocked.

Turning on the power when any of the gimbals’ motors are

locked can damage the device.

Steps for Setting up the Gimbal

Follow these steps for setting up the gimbal. They should be followed in

this order:

1. Charge the gimbal battery

2. Prepare the camera

3. Assemble and Balance the gimbal (with the camera on it)

4. Test the balance with Auto Tune

5. Connect the camera

1. Charge the battery

The battery is in the grip, and will

last for about 12 hours in normal

mode but less in super smooth

mode.

The gimbal uses less power when it

is properly balanced.

There is a USB charging port at the

bottom of the grip.

There is only one grip/battery.

Charge the battery in a place above

5° C but preferably at room

temperature.

2. Prepare the camera

Which camera to use?

The DJI Ronin RS 2 can work with many still cameras. The complete list can be found on this

page:

https://www.dji.com/ca/support/compatibility

In this guide, I refer to the Sony mirrorless cameras as these are the still cameras in the EV

depot with the best video recording quality. However, you can use other still cameras if you

wish. Refer to the specific menu settings required for remote control on the DJI

compatibility pages.

Do not use the RS 2 gimbal with any video cameras. It is not for use with the Sony FX6, FS5

or Z90 video cameras in the EV depot or any other video camera with the exception of

Blackmagic “pocket” video cameras.

Although DJI claim that this gimbal can support a 10 Lbs camera (4.5 kg), I remain skeptical.

It is difficult to balance the gimbal with a load of half that weight. The smaller and lighter

the load, the better the gimbal works.

2. Prepare the Camera

Attachments, batteries and media

Before using the gimbal it has to be balanced

with the camera. Prepare the camera so that

everything that is needed in and on the camera

is attached or inserted.

The neck strap should be removed. Place the

battery and SD card inside. Put the desired lens

on the camera, the lens hood if required and

take off the lens cap.

This advice seems pedantic but if there are any

changes to the camera (for example: removing a

lens cap or attaching a lens hood), the gimbal

will have to be rebalanced. Sony A7R III with the Sony FE 24mm F1.4 GM

prime lens. This is a good lens to use.
