    This camera is a beast. 3 recommended purchases with this is hight bright monitor 7" by itself (not the combo) tx video transmitter sold separately, and three channel follow focus. Also if you want to lighten the load and keep 4 axis get the tilta arm. If you wanna lighten the load but only have 3 axis get 4d flex.

    I used the Tamron 17-28mm f2.8 on the ronin, which worked very well due to its internal Zoom. I guess the new Lens is the same Lens just rebranded. Though I couldn’t find any specific spec to the lens, except the minimum focus ranges which are the same.

    @ClassicCyclingCC 6 месяцев назад

    I am very impressed by the Ronin 4D. It is such an innovative camera! However, I don’t think that this camera is it, at least not yet. It is a giant leap in the right direction and kudos to DJI for having developed and build this amazing camera but i don’t think it is a mature product. However, I do trust that DJI will continue to refine and improve this camera and I am confident that down the road at some point, DJI will come up with a camera that has most, if not all, of the great features we see in the 4D but in a simpler, smaller, lighter, more compact, and slightly more affordable package. When that day comes, I am buying it!
