Hey mate, I’m trying to decide which one to get, was hoping you could tell me: 1: does the RS3 have balancing view? 2: can you view Raveneye transmission output on the RS3 gimbal screen? Or are both of these features for the Pro only
@@lucrativestance No, you don't. You need the Raveneye Wireless Transmitter, I was just trying to figure out if it works on both the RS3 Pro and the RS3. I dont think you can even view the LiDAR cameras output on the gimbals screen on either gimbal.
@@Luke-vg7ut according to “ Dji website “ you can view the lidars camera on the ronin lcd, that’s how you would be selecting the “ active tracking” via the lcd on the screen from the lidar feed. The only thing that confuses me abit is, that if that same video feed will display on the app. So you can use the active tracking selection tool via app.
Thanks for covering this; nice to see them bring a lot of the RS2 features into the RS3 (given it's an RSC2 replacement, really). Auto-locking will save so much time.
First thought when I heard rumors was, "gimbals are gimbals, what could they actually add to make it worth upgrading."... well a lot I guess. Those features will make life a lot easier!
Hey bud. Cool channel! Met you & you're wife yesterday at a wedding! (I was the DJ) Cheers bud just wanted to bless the channel with a sub and a comment! You guys are true pros! happy fathers day!
hello. I'm using RS2 now, but I bought this newly released gimbal, RS3. It is equipped with various functions and is even more powerful. Stable smoothness is alive and well! I subscribed to the channel. thank you.
Hello, Smith. Are you already using this stabilizer? What can you say about it? What are the pros and cons? Is it worth upgrading if the previous stabilizer works, but not quite correctly?
Thank you for this, my RS2 just died and was between an RS3 Mini( I would have bought if I was strictly a content creator) and this because I don’t have the budget for the pro right now. I don’t need the things the RS3 Pro offer right now but do need stable footage for real estate clients. I picked a used one and waiting for it now 🙌
I am so jazzed for these. I had the rsc2 which I loved. I never really bonded with the RS2 the same way. Maybe it was just my copy but it had a lot of pan axis weirdness. The mk3 pro is looming as its replacement. Edit: Oh my God the hardware mode switch 😍
The man has all the professional tools he needs for his trade on the wall like Ironman ready to go into battle - drones, bags... a selection of caps...
Until we get auto-recalibration where it automatically moves the camera around to cut 99% of the hassle I would stick to RS2 for now. RS3 Pro is the better upgrade due to the longer arms but it seems to be rated at 4.5kg just like RS2.
I'm curious if you still use s cinetone? Or s log 3 for high dynamic range scenarios? BTW test footage looks buttery smooth! :) my fav video from all of them out there
I have the Sony a1 with a Tamron 35 to 150 mm, and I'm stuck thinking about what gimbal I should go for. If I should go for the Rs3 pro or the Rs3. Watching you put a 70-200 lens on the Rs3 makes me rethink whether I could be fine with just the Rs3. What do you recommend me to go for? I want to do a lot of real estate with it, plus do you have a RUclips channel with real estate content?
great review! Do You know if previous generation focus motor (from RS2, RSC2) is compatible with RS3? Older motor is around half the price and new one is still unavailable in most shops. Maybe you are in possession of focus motor from RS2 and can check if it works with RS3. Also it would be nice to know if new focus motor from RS3 works with RS2
Hi Chris Greate video! The smallrig part to hold the phone mount, you forgot to add the link for it 😕 I just got the RS3 Pro (first gimball) and I need an extender for the phone mount, else there is no space for a full rotation. So I am quite interested in which one you have in the video 😄
Excellent, well planned and executed review, Chris. Wouldn't expect anything less. I have what I think is quite a niche query and I reckon you're the fella to answer this. So my Weebill-S took quite a knock on a recent shoot and I'm pretty sure it's dead so I'm on the lookout for the replacement. I've landed on the RS3 I think but here's the question. Shooting on the A7iii and I'm wondering with the Bluetooth connectivity, any thoughts as to being able to use the joystick on the gimbal to move Flexible Spot focus?🤔 I reckon that's highly unlikely and if so, does Raveneye support tap to focus on your mobile device do you know? Thanks in advance. 🙏🏻
Great question. Ive looked everywhere for an answer to this and haven't found it. I have the same camera and focusing is the biggest sorespot when on a gimbal. Would love to know if you find out!
Thanks for this, do you think the RS3 would handle the Tamron 35 150 f2-2.8, its weighs 1.1kg and is quite long when extended, I guess probably fairly similar to your 70-200. Also can you control focus on focus by wire lenses with the gimbal dial?
Hi, Chris. I am just an enthusiast, not pro at all. I use an a7iii with Tamron lenses… plus, I rarely use manual focus lenses. With this in mind, I simply won’t need RS3 Pro. However, I really really want the Transmission system and the active track. For this, I understand I can use the Transmission system along with RS3 and that should be enough. I will be losing out on LiDar support. I’m tempted by the carbon fiber body, and I may find the smaller handle slightly less comfortable. But what else will I be losing if I go with the RS3 and not the RS3 Pro?
If you have the extra handle on the left could you mount an external battery for the camera on right? Maybe with a springy USB cable. I guess I could even mount a power bank on top of the camera.
Thanks for the information. I've been running with the RS2 since it was released and it has done well for me. My only complaint is that I can't focus from the RS2 to my Canon EOS R5C. Whom do you think I should talk to in order to find out if upgrading to an RS3 would solve that problem?
It would have been nice if you explained the different packages, the focus motor and raven eye doesn't come with the basic setup. Also Bluetooth doesn't work for every camera.
Can I just ask please with all the footage of filming and shoots with the DJI RS3 gimbal. With all the scenes that have been filmed is this what they look like even though they haven't been edited. Is this what the formats of the video shows on this. For videography many thanks Robert.
Thanks for the video, great demonstrations! I have one question for you, if weight capacity wasn't an issue, let's say, shotting with an a6xxx sony series + cage + sigma 16 1.4 or a7iii with 24mm...If you could get an used rs2 for less or almost the same price as a new RS3, what would you choose? Is the motors/stabilization improvement in the 3rd generation are that good to forget about carbon arms/ more robust construction of the rs2?
Do you think this RS3 (non pro) could balance properly with a Tamron 35-150 on a Sony A7siii with a cage? On paper it looks like it can but idk how much space it would have left so that the rear of the camera doesn't hit the gimbal. Any info would be helpful, great vid as always Btw!
With a cage def no, the Tammy is a heavy lens and I’d be inclined to think you’d want to go with the pro. The 70-200 F4 just balances with clearance. Few MM more and it would rub
@@chrisbrockhurst Thank you for this man you just saved me from getting the RS3. I’ll wait a bit and save some money to get the RS2 or the RS3 Pro instead
I lock axes only while balancing... never for travel! It's unsafe, it can damage the axes. It's another thing if you walk around with it and like to fix it so it doesn't swing.
Great video! So the RS3 should be strong enough to hold a Canon EOS R with an RF 15-35mm lens no problem correct? Sorry I'm new to these larger gimbals...I still use my DJI Pocket 2 for most of my B Roll gimbal video...
I have watched multiple videos explaining how to pair my Sony a7s3 with the RS3 and I wasn't able to make the camera visibile for the gimbal. I've tried enabling Bluetooth, activating the remote via Bluetooth option, nothing worked. Do you have any advice in regards to this? Thanks a million and keep up the good work.
Camera control bluetooth is just start and stop, not iso aperture or shutter speed. I can do the same with my sony remote and any gimbal. The auto locks system could fail overtime. I prefer manual locks.
Hi. Thanks for the video. If I have lenses with a telescoping zoom then would I have to re balance the camera on the gimbal every time I adjust the zoom? Also, is there a benefit to having the focus motor if those are the lenses you have. I'm not sure how they benefit.
Hello I recently bought the rs3 and I have been having trouble balancing my Sony 70-200 2.8 lens, I have a Sony a7s3. So I was wondering if you could give me some tips? Or if you are using counterweights which ones and stuff like that? Thanks!
Same here - I read Chris review and assumed my 70-200 2.8 GM would be fine but its not balancing. I've now noticed he was using the 70-200 F4, not the F2.8 GM / GM2.
@@chrisbrockhurst I did eventually get it to balance in the end by mounting to the gimbal using the bracket mid-way along the lens (instead of on the camera)👍 Hoping to get smoother pans with the 200 when mounted on a tripod.
Do you know if the Raven Eye Transmission system works in portrait mode? I would also like to know if you have already tested the DJR vertical mount with the Sigma 24-70?
Would the Ronin Rs3 be able to support the Canon 90d with the 18-135 mm lens ? I’m having trouble finding the answer , thank you! This would be my first gimbal so I want to be sure it works!
is it possible to control your gimbal with your phone if the bluetooth of the gimbal is connected with camera? and one more thing can i control the zoom of the lens 18-105 f4 G using the gimbal? thanks.
How would you go about balancing zoom lenses so that is good in every focal length ? I use a 24-70 and sometimes it’s just randomly turns off… balance it mid way and I experience if I shoot 70 or 24 it just gives up but it says it’s fine when I am midway….
Thank you for answering a question nobody asks very often - how do you make manual zoom lenses work on a gimbal? I'm in the process of procuring a Tamron 35-150, A7S III, and an RS3 Pro. I know the RS3 Pro's weight limit is substantially higher than that of the regular RS3, but I wonder how well the 35-150 will work when it's being zoomed in and out.
@@chrisbrockhurst Instantly subbed for that alone. I have a Crane M3, ZV-E10, and Sigma 18-50 as my current run-and-gun setup. Sadly no way of controlling zoom on that one :\ at least not that I'm aware of.
i have that setup. i can conferm the 35 150 works. you wont even need to have to adjust to when you zoom in or out. its nuts, the lens combo is def at the limmit of what the gimb can do
As an rs2 user, I’m looking for something a bit lighter for run and gun. Would I be able to move up to this gimbal if I’m not putting cinema cameras on and I’m not using the DJI transmission system? I do use raven eye which I see you went over
Hi Chris, is a camera mount plate compatible with RSC2/RS2? I am using Falcam F38 plate on my RSC2. Can I use the same plate on RS3? Question no.2 can be switched to portrait mode without dismounting from gimbal? With button press? Thanks a lot 👍
Hi Chris - do you know if the RS3 works with the Sony A7iv? And if so, would the 24-70 gm2 on it fit well? I just had to return the Manfrotto MVG220 as it was too big... which is why I was thinking I may need the Pro rather than just the RS3...
Love your channel my friend. Quick question, I apologize - which focus mode do you use for your footage with people. In the basketball scene do you use wide or center? Trying to learn as much as I can when it comes to multiple people coming in and out of the frame. Appreciate it!!
Do I understand correctly that rs3 combo kit does not include raveneye system? So what about tracking function? - isn't there no need for it anymore or do you have to buy it separately? Thanks 😉
Chris, What a great video! Very informative with a lot of real life examples It has been a while sense I last touched base. Like you, I also have the aS73, do you know if you can control the ISO and the F stop setting from the gimbal w/o giving up the record button and still having the focus the way you described in your set up? I guess what I asking can you run all the camera settings from the gimbal? Again, fantastic well done video. Mark
Honestly, I've never found the camera control cable or locking to be problematic at all :/ I don't know how I feel about the "RS3" being touted as an 'upgrade' to the RSC2 as though this gimbal design came out of nowhere and has 'new' and 'improved' features. It doesn't really, it's just an RS2 with bluetooth and some buttons moved around. Wouldn't really claim it as a generational change. It seems like some subtle marketing slight of hand, because the whole point of the RSC series as a product was to be the compact folding one in the range, which has now been binned entirely. Had they brought a way to HDMI-out to the gimbal itself and pass that through to a monitor on an arm (either using higher bandwidth data pass-through contacts or some sort of internal wireless transmission (with a battery upgrade to power it all), removing the inhibiting cable tethered to a gimballed camera- THEN it would be a generational jump. Hell, try R&D z-axis stabilisation into the Ronin Design, that would be an actual generational change. But it seems we really just got an RS2 mkii or RS2-BT and some new 'extended' arms for the RS2 (as the RS3 Pro).
Thanks for great review :) Is this bluetooth connection drain faster your battery from A7sIII? Is there still any option connect with camera by cable instead bluetooth? ?
Self locking is something you cant live without once you've tried it, seriously.
Hey mate, I’m trying to decide which one to get, was hoping you could tell me:
1: does the RS3 have balancing view?
2: can you view Raveneye transmission output on the RS3 gimbal screen? Or are both of these features for the Pro only
@@Luke-vg7ut to view the video off the lcd of the gimbal you must have the lidar attachment
@@lucrativestance No, you don't. You need the Raveneye Wireless Transmitter, I was just trying to figure out if it works on both the RS3 Pro and the RS3. I dont think you can even view the LiDAR cameras output on the gimbals screen on either gimbal.

Auto locking is (I hate to use it..but very true in this respect) game changing

Yeh man I’ve been using this for a few weeks and the locks and Bluetooth control are both things I use EVERYTIME now. Super smart useful functionality

Just purchased one a week ago! Love it!
Detachable battery? Now that's an upgrade!
yup!
Awesome review man. Your real estate shots look dope!
Appreciate it 🙏🏼
SUPER USEFUL Video, thankyou Chris! Have just picked up the RS3 combo for a couple of initial projects! Can't WAIT to get going on it!

huge upgrades all around
Great video review. Thank you for making this! I just got the DJI rs3 and this answered a few questions I had about setup!
The man has all the professional tools he needs for his trade on the wall like Ironman ready to go into battle - drones, bags... a selection of caps...
The mist filter in the studio drove me crazy.
Likewise, especially for the close ups of the screen. Live and learn
This was super helpful. You just sold me sir. Good stuff
Niceeee, love seeing gear continuing to get better and better. This will replace my Weebil-s super nicely:) Thanks for covering this!
No problem!
The best rs3 video I've watched
Thankyou
I literally just ordered this because of your review!
You’ll love it
Thanks I learned some new things for my gimbal!
Super video, as usual ;)
Thanking for showing the menues, I think you are the only one who did so far :P

Yes this gimbal needs an auto calibration mode.. i put the camera with the lens up and the gimbal recognize it and auto calibrate

The smallrig part to hold the phone mount, you forgot to add the link for it 😕
I just got the RS3 Pro (first gimball) and I need an extender for the phone mount, else there is no space for a full rotation.
So I am quite interested in which one you have in the video 😄
I like the no cables setup .
Great video thanknyou !
Great content!
Do you think with some counter weights I could balance the 70-200 2.4 g master? I have the ZV-E1 which is also a really lite camera
I bought the RS2 a few months ago. I should have waited. Oh well, I guess I could sell my RS2 and buy the RS3 Pro. I like the no wires.
Great Video
Excellent, well planned and executed review, Chris. Wouldn't expect anything less. I have what I think is quite a niche query and I reckon you're the fella to answer this.

Yessss, I got the same issue, it maxes out at 50 mm before having 0 free space when balancing, did you find a solution?
I dislike it when people use wild angle lens for gimbal review. We can’t see the flaws there. Instead use 50/35mm and we can see everything clearly.
Sweet detachable batteries! That means we can bring an extra ones for total non-stop recording!!
exactly.
Do you know, or can check, if the RavenEye from RS2 works with RS3 Pro as well?

Hi Chris - do you know if the RS3 works with the Sony A7iv? And if so, would the 24-70 gm2 on it fit well? I just had to return the Manfrotto MVG220 as it was too big... which is why I was thinking I may need the Pro rather than just the RS3...
does anyone find their rs3 pro doesn’t fully fold when locking?
Yep I’m pretty sure it’s done on purpose because the arms are longer
Dji Gimbal Hack: You can just hold the trigger and M button simultaneously to calibrate as well
Love your channel my friend. Quick question, I apologize - which focus mode do you use for your footage with people. In the basketball scene do you use wide or center? Trying to learn as much as I can when it comes to multiple people coming in and out of the frame. Appreciate it!!
Do I understand correctly that rs3 combo kit does not include raveneye system? So what about tracking function? - isn't there no need for it anymore or do you have to buy it separately? Thanks 😉
Can you control any zoom or focus wirelessly without adding attachments?
Chris, What a great video! Very informative with a lot of real life examples It has been a while sense I last touched base. Like you, I also have the aS73, do you know if you can control the ISO and the F stop setting from the gimbal w/o giving up the record button and still having the focus the way you described in your set up? I guess what I asking can you run all the camera settings from the gimbal? Again, fantastic well done video. Mark
Did you find out the answer? I'm intrested too
@@fedorbutorin3850 me too
Nice ... I assume you can use a cell phone with this gimbal? Want something a little more robust than the Osmo 5.
yep, you can buy a DJI mount for it if the kit you buy doesnt come with one
can the wireless shutter control - control other camera setings other than recording such as aperture and all that?
Can you just use the a7siii built in wireless monitoring using wifi insteadof raven eye?
Can it balance a7siii+sigma 24-70 2.8 dg dn with VND filters in it ?? How is the stabilization at 70mm ??
Honestly, I've never found the camera control cable or locking to be problematic at all :/ I don't know how I feel about the "RS3" being touted as an 'upgrade' to the RSC2 as though this gimbal design came out of nowhere and has 'new' and 'improved' features. It doesn't really, it's just an RS2 with bluetooth and some buttons moved around. Wouldn't really claim it as a generational change. It seems like some subtle marketing slight of hand, because the whole point of the RSC series as a product was to be the compact folding one in the range, which has now been binned entirely.
Had they brought a way to HDMI-out to the gimbal itself and pass that through to a monitor on an arm (either using higher bandwidth data pass-through contacts or some sort of internal wireless transmission (with a battery upgrade to power it all), removing the inhibiting cable tethered to a gimballed camera- THEN it would be a generational jump. Hell, try R&D z-axis stabilisation into the Ronin Design, that would be an actual generational change. But it seems we really just got an RS2 mkii or RS2-BT and some new 'extended' arms for the RS2 (as the RS3 Pro).
4:38 where can i get this grip?
Is it still a 12mm rod? That was one reason I never got the RS2.
Yes
Chris, will this rs3 handle the 70-200 2.8 mkii?
Can it do timelapse stuff like previous models? I haven't seen any mention of that even from DJI.
Yey! No need for shutter cables!
Right!
Still in doubt between RS3 and RS3 Pro...
Thanks for great review :) Is this bluetooth connection drain faster your battery from A7sIII? Is there still any option connect with camera by cable instead bluetooth? ?
you can connect via cable if you want yep
Does it have auto zoom feature? I mean record yourself with changing distance from a camera and be in constant zoom within lens range?
SCAM ALERT ^ IGNORE THIS SORRY EXCUSE OF A PERSON.
Hi is it possible to use sigma 150-600 mm contemporary lens with canon 200d mark ii on rs 3?
