DJI RS4 PRO Ecosystem is Game Changing for SOLO Filmmakers!

The new DJI RS4 Pro is finally here! Special thanks to DJI for allowing me to get this early! But honestly, I find the ecosystem around it to be the real show stealer! The way that the gimbal integrates with the LiDAR autofocus system and their wireless transmission monitor is amazing!

#DJIRS4Pro #gimbal #LidarFocusing

[@VlogCity]

That Lidar system is insane! And honestly, spending $600 isn't so bad for a permanent auto focus puller and being able to use manual lenses by yourself. Basically like spending what you would pay a focus puller for a day and instead getting a focus puller for hundreds of days. Definitely will have to invest in that later this year!

[@connormccaskill]

Yeah man, exactly! I think all of this DJI tech could change the game! And I never even talked about their LiDAR focus grip

[@leonardomenchi_sw]

Can you active track yourself on the DJI RS4 ? Without all the extras accessories ? Or you must have the lidar raven eye and all the focus motor etc.. ??

[@TransPeterPan]

Wondering this as well

[@leonardomenchi_sw]

@@TransPeterPan you need either the raven eye or the lidar

[@truthseeker6804]

we are waiting for dji to implement 4D into the gimbals. tired of this same gimbal relaunched again and again. nothing really new.

[@connormccaskill]

Man there is a bunch new with this actually, although a bunch of it is subtle when it comes to the gimbal specifically. But everything around it with the new LiDAR sensor, focus hand unit and grip, and integration with the high bright monitor is actually amazing. And DJI made it backwards compatible which I think is super cool of them

[@formerlydave]

video turned out great! love seeing all my friends in here! also, that shirt looks great on you!
gimbal seems cool too 😂

[@connormccaskill]

Haha thanks man! See you at NAB

[@idkanymore3382]

Im sorry but cables hanging off of it is cringe. They need to figure this out

[@connormccaskill]

There’s a place for the cables, I just forgot the price to attach them

[@idkanymore3382]

@@connormccaskill I owned the rs2 pro with the focus system and all, even when routing the cables its still an issue. I would like to see a cableless solution for their accessories. I mean some are a given but the PDMOVIE AIR smart 3 has no cables and is a all on one unit for lidar focusing. I want DJI to do that for their focusing module

[@kilikdudley]

Because how the CAMERA looks has become more important than what the cameras does 🙄

[@idkanymore3382]

@@kilikdudley its not how it looks. You obviously havent dealt with cables and the dangers of them snapping or the ports breaking. Poser.

[@theranchhand]

Thank you for this. I’m about to be a two person crew in a doc shoot in Taiwan and following two people talking will be common so that last demo shot with both of them sold me on this as equipment I need to get.

[@connormccaskill]

Glad it was helpful for you

[@antoinernb9398]

I don't know how to use the RS4 PRO. I have it and it just sits here. I am a photographer; wanting to shoot video for sports. Help me pls.

[@connormccaskill]

It’s almost the same as the RS3 Pro! I would just look up gimbal setup and basics on RUclips! You’ve got this!

[@perplexer731]

Thank you for the introduction.
What kind of DJI Cable hub is that? It look different then the old one. Do you have a link or informations to it? I can't find anything.

[@KofiYeboah]

This ting is ….
A game changer 💯💯 sick video my guy 🫡

[@connormccaskill]

DJI definitely didn’t hold back with this launch! 🚀 appreciate your help on this video man!!

[@cammackey]

CRUSHED IT BRO.

[@connormccaskill]

Thanks man! Your video shreds! This DJI tech is insane!

[@cookhousemedia9416]

Great review Connor!! Thanks again for including us in it!! :-)

[@connormccaskill]

Man it was awesome to have you be apart of this video! Super fun to shoot with you guys again!

[@dreamhunterfilms2796]

New sub here. Question, Does dji have an adaptor to use my iphone 15 with it? Thank you.

[@connormccaskill]

Do you mean on the RS4 pro?

[@dreamhunterfilms2796]

@@connormccaskill yes. Can i use my iphone on it, too?

[@LsCarvalho17]

@@dreamhunterfilms2796just bought it. It comes with a phone holder. But idk if the phone can be connected to the stabiliser the same way the camera can.

[@dreamhunterfilms2796]

@@LsCarvalho17 i just saw a video of a guy using it with his iphone 15

[@claudio6032]

i will buy this Gimbal and the Lidar Pro, then I will build the "The Creator" Shoulder Rig :)

[@johnbryant4416]

I’ve seen lots of videos using the gimbal for video, but does this translate to photography. I would like to mount my camera in a remote location and control the gimbal to frame my subject and control the camera to focus, zoom and take photos. Having a large monitor would be a plus.

[@connormccaskill]

I mean, I think it would work, but I feel like there has to be a better solution.

[@VoidedVisuals]

Does it have the Dolly zoom option? Because the Rs3 took that away when the rs2 had it

[@connormccaskill]

Idk that it has a specific “option” but you definitely could do a dolly zoom on this setup!

[@akmediaproductions]

What happens when the subject goes out of frame? will the gimbal come back to the center position or stay there searching for them?

[@rivashnaidoo6267]

Did I hear correctly? You have to re-calibrate your lens every time you switch them? That sounds like a huge time waster on set. Can they not just be saved on the system and ready to go whenever you switch lenses?

[@connormccaskill]

You can have multiple saved lenses in the system

[@emoryjaymz]

Game changer! Nice meeting you today, bro!

[@connormccaskill]

It was nice meeting you bro! Reach out on IG, maybe we can collaborate on something soon

[@DarKSpiritAU]

I cannot find any information on the dji website about the usb power hub?

[@LoiselsPhotography]

Zzzzzzzz.....

[@brennanspark]

I would love to see how the lidar works on a 24-70lens

[@NOOBIFIER1337]

Nice job

[@connormccaskill]

Appreciate that
