Yes its finally time to let go of the trusty glidecam. Have you used the Ronin S? What do you think so far?
I would say both are pretty good , but for me to save some space I’d go for ronin S , thx Matti 🙂
Trying to decide which Gimbal to get looking forward to this review!
I have it, Iove it ! Still testing, however I already know it’s my goto gimbal !
WHO IS RONIN S??
I use the Movi M5 and really like it, I also use it for aerial work. But I see how the Ronin S would be great for the backpack.
Matti, please make a best Ronin S settings for different scenarios?!
I watched a ton of these videos on the Ronin S before committing to buying one in September. None of the videos prepared me for the weight of this thing. Most of the videos didn’t mention it or mentioned it in passing, but it is THE biggest thing that will shock you about it. Matti mentioned it again here but in passing really. I was so shocked that on a 4 day shoot where I was filming a Yacht Show all day long each day I didn’t use it for the first two days. This was because I thought it wouldn’t be manageable with my camera and mic on it. I used it the last two days and it was a struggle but the footage was great of course.
Other thing to mention is if you are wanting to record sound then you need to put your mic on it, which can interfere with the flashlight and underarm mode. I was switching between a VideoMic Pro and a Sennheiser G4 wireless mic and each time you switch you have to rebalance. I’m going to fit an arm on the side to hold these in future so I don’t have to deal with it. Also remember if you have a zoom lens and you zoom, you will have to rebalance each time. Nobody is talking about this either.
@@ey870 just balance in the middle it works fine, i use a 24-70 2.8 canon with a 1dx mark ii which is huge and it works just fine :)
He talked about it for 25 secinds not really in passing js
I’ve got the Ronin S. My first ever gimbal and works very easily for beginners using gimbals. It’s heavy, but that’s okay because of the tripod feet allowing you to rest it down. Great vid!
Matti this is a great review and we are ronin lovers and users ourselves! Keep making great work brother!
Today's lighting, color grading and everything else looks so satisfying 💘
😊 thanks
I left my trusty Glidecam, slider and even my monopod at home for filming a wedding and the Ronin S did it all with ease!
I'm waiting for zhiyun webill as it looks small and light weight too. Ronin S was too big and heavy for travel filmmaking
I can't wait for it. Super clever design and small.
same! coming from a bmx / skate background its going to be a game changer
Traveling is okay with the Ronin. I used it on a London trip and walked 7h with it in my Hand (hard after a while, but possible and you don't have to go to gym). I personally don't like the cheap feeling of the crane
Yeah I thought the Ronin S was super heavy when I first got it, its kinda a chore to use because of that but I just bought this super nifty shoulder strap for it and it takes almost all the weight out of my arm and moves it to my body it makes it SOOOOO much better, obviously I still need to test it out to see how much I actually like it.
@@peterdozal8825 good idea on the strap..will keep that in mind..just heard today mine's arrived at the shop in Aus, so couple of days away
The DJI Ronin S is a good gimbal if you want a heavy duty setup. Moza and Zhiyun are both releasing 2 new gimbals each that look amazing both higher payload and also 2 smaller gimbals for mirrorless. These are available for pre-order on B & H. The new Zhiyun gimbals have the triggers to recenter the gimbal and go to sport mode and also control all the camera settings. You can also lock all the gimbal motors for traveling. The new underslung mode is amazing and also the gimbals can wirelessly transmit the image to your smartphone which acts as a monitor and touch to focus etc. Definitely worth taking a look at before you put out that hard earned cash.
Very interesting to see what the other companies do
This gimbal is so heavy it motivated me to go to the gym and put in that arm day grind!
They see me ronin
They hatin'
...
chammilionaire
I've been using this gimbal for about 3 months. So far no complaints, it's really good. Just used it with a 950g lens and it worked perfectly.
I've felt the same. Used the Crane 2 for a long while but once I moved to the Ronin S, I actually feel like it became an extension of my arm rather than an awkward piece of metal I'm swinging around like a sword. Solid review, bro!
I love the new Premiere feature. Sad I missed this one. I'll definitely be here for the next one!
I have to say, out of all the videos on the Ronin S, I think this one is the best so far 👊🏻
I think its time I bust out my Gimbal finally, first I embraced the mobile gimbal, next dslr gimbal
Haha yea you need one of these!
The Moza 2 looks allot like the Ronin S, cant wait to see a comparision between the two. Good idea for a youtube video right? *wink *wink xD
@@mattih DUUUUUDEEEE!!! YOU DO UNDERSLING MODE WRONG! This is how you do undersling mode on any other gimbal (ruclips.net/video/2Ourp694lqs/видео.html). This is how you smoother results out of the crane. Also just use a higher power settings or a lighter camera.
Matty, would love to see you shoot the same scene with your Glidecam and Ronin and see the difference in both set up time and stabilization quality. Thanx!
So NEED one of these. It would really help up my video game. Thanks for the review.
Travel More! Worry Less!
2nd that. Nothing makes a video better than smooth quality shots.
Great to see Peter McKinnon in the iconic scenery of Moraine Lake
It was fun to be here for the premiere! Thanks for the video Matti.
i bought the ronin-s and i have to say it is an amazing gimble. affordable. perfect size. comes with carry case. operates to your needs. super quick to set up. build quality is strong and solid.
i also have the ronin-m which ive been using for the past year and of course it is well known that its an amazing gimble as well. it has some qualities that are better than "single hand" gimbles such as tracking forward sohts and running forward.
although i think the S will be my new every shoot gimble. battery is amazing as well! i rate it 9/10 simply because the weight is heavy. although its still not a problem.
I completely agree! I've used all kinds of gimbals from large Movis to Glidecams and wasn't ever 100% satisfied .. until I tried the Ronin S! I sold all of my older gear to get one, plus I had money left over for more equipment!
When the Gymbal switch to selfie mode it was hilarious......feels like the camera had life and wanted to talk to Matti.
I am considering the Moza Air 2 or the Ronin S and so far am leaning towards Moza Air 2. It has higher payload, a bit lighter, all the controlls a lot more accessable via the integrated display - a huge plus, buttons and joystick. The build quality are premium for both of them.
I'm in the same position, which one are you going for?
@@stuartdoyle99 , The Moza Air 2. Doing most of the settings using a phone is just a show stopper. In addition the other things I mentioned.
Buying myself a Ronin-S tomorrow, unrelated to the review but it definitely didn't hurt!
I was about to ask you about the ronin s and how you feel and boom here is this video! excellent as always. I have mine and I'm very happy with it. Maybe share the settings you think are worth tweaking? cheers from Puerto Rico.
Im buying one today :)
DJI equipment is so well made. Does look heavy, but still way more practical than a glide-cam. Dope review
Great review Matti! Don't have a gimbal yet but I'm pretty much sold on this one! Also, I think it would be a really cool idea if you made a video on how you make your RUclips videos! Not as much as filming/editing them, but how you come up with an idea, plan it, and turn it into a video. I think something like that would be pretty awesome, like behind the scenes style. Awesome video man!
I use the Zhiyun crane v2 and it works great for me
Great video Matti, just bought the ronin, so excited!
Can’t wait to open mine when I get back from this deployment!!!!
Stay safe man!
So far the only complaint I have about my Ronin-S is that it is so heavy. I also wish that DJI would release the accessories they promised like HD transmitter, follow focus, other support grips, replacement batteries, and alternate ways of powering the gimbal. Also I shoot with sony power zoom lenses and that side control is great for controlling zoom.
Watching you and peter make my day....
I never thought you'd switch away from the glidecam! I hope DJI gives you a few Ronins to give away for your next video, haha!
Hope you get to try the weebel lab it looks a bit more advanced than the Ronin S, James Mathews was very impressed.
This is going to be awesomeeeeeee
That was fun actually 😊
Those opening shots tho 🔥
Crushing it Matti! Keep up the hustle
Thanks man!
I am so glad you mentioned all this stuff. I was having a hard time to choose a gimbal and I finally went for the Ronin S! Cool video bro!
Good job Matti. I think I'm gonna get the Ronin S too.
Thanks for the info Matti. I'm trying to decide what I'm needing.
I agree. Awesome gimbal, but annoying to balance. Great video.
Great review, Matti! I love your thorough reviews of gear. I might have to finally upgrade from my crane 2 to this.
😍😍😍😍😍 that nature and the camera 😍😍😍😍 and that gimbal
I am thinking how about putting a little tiny slide rail on the camera platform with a little tiny knob,to ballance it, once you are done , you can lock it .
That’s awesome! I just got to the comments but that’s crazy guess I’m gonna get one! They’re on sale right now too! Thanks for the vid! 🙏🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
y'all gotta check out the new Zhiyune Crane 3 lab
Love the review, been looking forward to using this, but they’re so back ordered here.
Ah dang that sucks!
I just bought one! Thank you matti!!
Liked before watching because its Matti.
😊
Matti, in your first review you said the cost was $699.00. Where are you finding it for that price? I don’t see it for less than $950.00 anywhere in Canada.
Great (and thorough) review Matty!
you need to compare this with zhiyun new gimbals
I've had my ronin-s for months and i use it for everything!
Thank you for this!
Woah, this was so awesome and helpful at the same time.
Love it We dig it!
wow.... this one is fantastic. I would love to get one.
We REALLY really wanna get the Ronin S!
🙌🏻
Nice one. Take of the focus thingy and get the weight down in the process
I have the Ronin-S and really enjoy using it. I don't use it enough, though to be honest, you could say that about all my gear... Time to get out and shoot some more video!
I love my crane 2, not sure why you had those issues with your but mines works like a charm , plus I’m a canon user so having the controls right on the gimbal vs touching the camera is so awesome! And I can’t do that with the ronin, but it’s just a tool and what works for me works for me!!!
@ 8:10 right?! And not to mention the side to side baseplate movement ha! Sometimes that's all it takes to get that perfect balance?
I'm not a videographer, I always shoot photos. But your videos are really awesome and inspiring. Subbed
there is something definitely wrong with your Crane 2. It shouldn’t shake like it does in this video. Have you set motors power to maximum? My footage with Crane 2 is as smooth as your with Ronin-s. However, I would personally switch to Ronin-s ))
I'm sold.
Ive received mine just today. Im so exited abt it
I love mine and funny it’s the weight I like, I think that helps make it more smooth
Must be awesome if you are making the switch! That really says something!
Tried to adopt something smaller than my Ronin-M... This was not it. It’s basically a supersized Osmo. Without a Z axis stabilizer, up/down walking motions are exaggerated by this configuration. It’s not a replacement for the Ronin-M.
Looking good Matt!
First time viewer. Your filmmaking is incredible! Great review too, thank you!
Still saving to get mine!! Can’t wait!
Great video man!
Also coming from the Crane 2 to the Ronin S and am much happier. While the Crane was nice because it had the ability to adjust your camera settings on the Gimbal itself via the wheel dial, I found the Ronin S much easier to use, smoother, and the motors never went wonky on me like they have on the Crane. Nice review, just found your channel and will be following going forward.
Let go of the Glidecam!! I LOVE my Ronin S!!! It's a bad ass piece of equipment! Nice review Matti!
Yeah - its dope and aggravating at the same time. That said, I ain’t givin mine up anytime soon.... focus wheel, hmmm, took mine off day one! Doesn’t work with my 6D anyway. Love the vid good sir!
Thank you for this video Matti. I’ve been borrowing the zhiyun crane 2 from my college to use and sometimes the footage would look shaky despite me being super careful with my walking technique and now I know, it could be the gimbal and not me. Also like you mentioned, the zhiyun can sometimes turn your camera on their own which ruins the shot completely and it leaves me frustrated a lot of the time. Thank you for clearing that up.
Great review and information, thanks Matti
The Ronin-S is a whole lot of Gimbal for the money. The build quality is really slick. I.E. the rubber handle and the quality of the motors are really good. It's a really high quality product. I don't like the contact points where you adjust the knobs to balance it, it's quite tricky to slide the arms in and out as you balance the camera. It's such a pity they didn't make them smooth. Also, it weighs a bloody ton!
Anybody else love to see Matti in one of those slapping competitions?
Ordered & coming next month 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’m staying «old school» for now. 🤐 Have a cheap ebay glidecam copy, it works, but takes FOREVER to balance. Therefor I have just ordered the Glidecam HD 4000 after watching a lot of reviews, including yours. 😊
Keep it up. 👍 You are a great inspiration for my Norwegian outdoor channel.
Great review as always Matti, I want one for my videos!! 🙌
Uau, 6:53 - you really had a big sweaty time!! Big effort there!
Its a gimbal beast and spare you the fitness, great vid, big up Matti (y)
A number of gimbals are coming out in a few weeks that are supposed to be "Ronin S killers" - The Moza Air 2, and the Weebill Lab. I'd love to see you check those out.
Hey mate!
If you're not using the focus wheel how do you focus? And I found that zoom is hard as well because it will change the balance ...
You deserve a cookie 🍪
Would love to know your personal settings you have when you use it...
Great video Matti, this is my next gimbal because my 1st gen Zhyuin Crane has been giving so many issues as of late.
Nice Cut at 2:06 :D
awesome footage and review, thanks!
YAHH I’m IN THE PHILIPPINES AND IT’S MORING NOW 1:50 am
Didn't even watch the video yet! Love you Matti!!
I feel that the focus wheel will come in handy for smartphone gimbals, and using it with mobile phone filming. Once smartphones are able to optical zoom over greater distances without degrading the image quality, it'll be much easier to just turn the wheel. I mean, you can't turn a ring on a lens for a smartphone.
Hey Matti, could you please do an episode showing how you set up the autofocus with 6D MkII? How do you use the autofocus as you are changing shots and target. Thanks.
Want to buy one so bad but I'm not sure how Ill use it. Maybe just nice time laps shots. Definitely on the list though
Excited to see this review. I have a Ronin-S on order and hopefully they’ll stop delaying it on me 😄 haha
