Great video. I’m not sure why it took so long for me to consider the idea of mounting an iPhone on a ronin s, but this morning I was wondering if anyone had tried it. I found your video first
Thank you. A VERY helpful video. The smaller "smartphone gimbals" are maxed-out by the 12 Pro Max with case and auxiliary lenses and/or filters, so this is really the only solution. Still not sure a gimbal is needed for the 12 PM given how good the camera's stabilization is. (Also, I often use a monopod.)
I tried everything to balance my ronin sc and even though everything shows up excellent in the balance test, the gimbal just does the weird thing where it flips and just won't work as it should. Can u help....any advice ?
Thank you. My Zhiyun Smooth Q which I have used with my Samsung Galaxy s20+ has just died and I have a Ronin SC for my Panasonic GH5. I can now use this gimbal with my smartphone and keep it's case on!
I have a ronin sc for quite some time, but at the moment I want to use my camera (GH5s) together with the phone holder (for active track) AND microphone + lighting panel (I have a triple shoe mount). The payload is 1.8 kg (so still under the max payload of 2kg) but I can't get it to balance? Do you know what can be done? I'm sure I can't be the only one with this issue lol
great - after 3 hours of the oroginal video for normal cams i got angry. 10 min with your film and i am happy again. autotune is very important hint. THX
I mounted my Xiaomi 10T Pro 5G to the Ronin SC with a custom 3d printed mount on another custom shoe that is about 25mm tall. To fix the uneven weight issue I made a small box were I placed 16x60g balance weights for car wheels
Thanks for sharing! I use the A6300+kit lens & had to hack the lack of weight by taping a Canon battery on top of my camera. This solution is much easier (and more elegant) :)
Do you notice a little bit of sway ? I’m using a iPhone 12 Pro Max which is pretty heavy do you think I should use balance weights to make it a little heavier
The phone holder and the plate are accessories to buy separately? I am keen on this gimbal with mobile phone + action cam 😁. Btw: what tripod/feet do you use to keep it stable here please? thank you
In case of using smartphone I'm curious why you do not think to use weight's? Is it not possible to use other not original camera plate? I do not own and never had an Gimbal but I'm looking around comparing Dji Ronin SC - Feiyu G6 Plus 3-Axis and other. I want to use camcorder HDC-SD 90 or the smaller iphone SE attached into an smartphone holder, for example the Beastgrip. Attached externals as Lavalier microphone or wireless, light will it gives more weight. In case still not balanced is there in my remembering the metal or aluminium weights with 1.4" thread used with the old stabilizers. Why the interesting for the Ronin SC, there is much place for smartphones to added external adapters what is difficult to find into the specials made gimbals for smartphone.
Hi bro, I wonder if the Ronin sc will work fine with my iPhone 11 pro max, please help!!! I noticed that the Osmo 3 Mobile has not the same stability as the ronin sc....
Yeah it will work fine! Just need to hit the autotune button after balancing it. Here is an iPhone Ronin SC video. ruclips.net/video/TZpbv5XWKK8/видео.html
Is it possible to control iPhone with the ronin sc2? I mean I plugged in the official cable to the left side port showing camera icon and I plugged it also to my phone but I can’t make photo with the button which shoul do it with the for example Sony DSLR. I also don’t have the camera icon on the small screen of a gimbal when connecting the cable. Would greatly appreciate if someone could help!?
I purchased a Sirui Anamorphic Lense & Density filter for a white iPhone XR. I’ve tried it with the crane m2 and it does not like that weight haha. Do you think that those attachments will add enough extra weight for the DJI ronin SC to work properly?
Hey great video of knowledge question: I have a S21ultra and my plan is to purchase a moment cage then mount it. The rig is 287 grams ( 7.8 oz) and the phone is 229 grams (8.07 grams) to obtain more weight. If it's not enough the cage is metal so I figure I can attach weights to it. Do you think this will work?? Thanks! 😊
Cool! Any idea if I could use active tracking with a smartphone... if I got the right cable to attach the iPhone to the gimbal and use a second smartphone as monitor? Thanks for all your videos. Very helpful.
@@BradleyFPV The active track only works when it's connected to a camera it doesn't work if you are filming with an iphone. I use a 12 pro max but with the ND filter and mount and I used two small camera weights to keep it balanced correctly because it is too heavy for a smaller cell gimble and light for this size gimbal.
Lol true, unfortunately all smartphone gimbals as of this date only support a payload of up to 290gr. An iPhone 13 Pro + some filters/lenses will go well over that limit. Would you have any other suggestions?
@@BradleyFPV I have SAMSUNG S22 Ultra it's comfortable with this ? Second all accessories available in box or need to purchase separate? Third one is , if any other product please suggest.
What screw are you using to mount the phone to the plate? I just got my Ronin and none of the screws seem to fit or work when I tried nofollow along with your video.
The Ronin Sc will only be used to stabilize your videos on the iPhone 12 pro max. Iphone Bluetooth connectivity allows you to control the Ronin SC to control a mirrorless camera but not vice versa. Hmm.. i havent come across any app though. A mobile phone gimbal like the DJI om4 would be able to do that.
bro , thanks for sharing this wonderful ronin sc video, appreciate it a lot ! it will be perfect if u got show more video on the footage of ronin sc in big compound like running with ronin sc with sony a7 series . btw , i found i too late to subscribe u !! ur video have more details and information compare other youtuber which just show off they are first review on new product and their video is lack of information . especially those hidden skilss. keep it up bro!
Thanks for this video! Any idea if sony has updated active track to work with the phone? It would be so cool if you could set it up that way. I tried plugging in the usb C from the Gimbal to my phone but it still doesn't register
For activetrack u need to mount ur mobilephone onto the hotshoe mount of ur camera and connect the mobilephone to the gimbal via bluetooth. I have used activetrack on the sony cameras since a year ago
Doesn't Active track work with the OSMO Gimbal's and a phone. I hope DJI can make it work with a Ronin gimbal and a phone. Currently I would like to purchse a Ronin Gimbal and use active track. The DJI OM 5 has many 1 star reviews. It is not powerful enough to use the iPhone 13 Pro Max. I also would like to attach a lens using an adapter to my iPhone. So i'm sure the DJI OM 5 wouldn't be able to handle it anyway. I can work on learning cinematography with my iPhone and also buy Canon lenses to use with the adapter. Later down the road I will get a Bmpcc 6k Pro Camera. So I would rather have a gimbal that will already work with it. Also the Canon lenses will be compatible.
Hey there! The Ronin SC was designed for Mirrorless cameras. There is no connectivity for DSLRs. The DJI Ronin S, Zhiyun Weebill-S and Feiyu-Tech AK2000s can be used with DSLRs. I have videos on those gimbals as well on my channel.
Hello, as a professional I ask for help. I received this device as a gift. But it turned out that it was designed for filming on camera. Tell me, is it possible to shoot on a phone with the record button controlled from the Steadicam handle? To avoid pointing your finger at the screen. Thank you in advance
it's a bummer this doesn't work with Filmic Pro app. I have an iPhone XS Max + Moment lenses and I have tried 4 different gimbals and none work well for balancing, so I might just get this...
Yeah the Ronin SC should definitely take the weight. Have you tried the Zhiyun crane m2. Its more portable but in terms on stabilization the Ronin SC is less wobbly.
Now … what if you get a custom phone aluminium mount with threads and put some counterweights on the left side to make it a bit heavier … This should compensate the tilt .. Make sure when balancing the Sony , camera is turned on because I thing lens usually extend. And that puts stress on the motors. Because you’re balancing a solid object and is different than a volatile object. I think that should be taken in consideration also.
Thanks for your videos on the SC . It really helped me to balance my camera on the Ronin SC. I need your help to create a new video on how to balance the Ronin SC mounted with the Sony Camera + the mobile phone on the phone’s hot shoe mount . It’s impossible to balance the gimbal with the camera + Phone on top for the Active tracking to work . Thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you for sharing this! I’ve been wondering if I could do a smartphone only rig with something like a Shoulderpod and accessories and this has answered that question. No one else is making videos about this! Do you know if you are able to do auto track or any of the other gimbal features with a smartphone setup, or would be able to with a second phone?
@@profoodmakers2200 not with this specific one. Been using feiyutech ak2000 with a bit of working around with two phones I've made it work. Though sometimes it does have a hard time following a rapid moving target.
What if I use two phones one on top of the other, one as my recording camera on the bottom, and one on the top for the motion tracking. By using a vertical double phone mount.
I have some weird issue. When i tilt my sc more than 45 degree, it goes all crazy. Due to this, I'm not able to use it or do 360. It was working fine with other cameras i tried earlier but i just bought a6400 and facing this issue. I even tried balancing my old d3200 which worked fine but facing the same issue :(
@@TreeTanksDev Actually I have tried it balancing tons of time, even tried balancing my friends a7iii which i have used earlier and even after all properly balancing, even if pan it up or down, it starts going all crazy
TreeTanksDev issues with my smartphone gimbal. So I decided to purchase the SC and try it, it’s only 360g so I am not sure if it’s too light weight for the Ronin sc.

Yeah i normally just shoot handheld on my iphones 😂
I tried everything to balance my ronin sc and even though everything shows up excellent in the balance test, the gimbal just does the weird thing where it flips and just won't work as it should. Can u help....any advice ?
I would buy some balancing weights and mount those to the gimbal first and then the phone on top of the weights. This should help
I mounted a 12 pro max and I still get a little sway do you think balance weights will mitigate that sway ?
Is everything to be able to do this inside the ronin sc box if bought from new? (Exc the phone)
Yes!
Also, I fitted my small rig cage which helped camera weight on my a6500 👌
Saved my life with this video thank you!!!!!
Super helpful! I didn't see that screw hole on the bottom of the phone holder and was needing just this!
Thank you. My Zhiyun Smooth Q which I have used with my Samsung Galaxy s20+ has just died and I have a Ronin SC for my Panasonic GH5. I can now use this gimbal with my smartphone and keep it's case on!
i want to mount s23 ultra, will that work? will super wide lens show the motors?
thank u so much for help me...bcz i have no camera,so i can not connect how can i connect my phone in gimbal
Thank you, I read elsewhere that my phone wouldn't work w the roninSC but this video was so helpful! Thank you!

Are you able to use the shutter controls that are on the gimbal with your smartphone? Like the start/stop recording button.
Please update me if you found out

great - after 3 hours of the oroginal video for normal cams i got angry. 10 min with your film and i am happy again. autotune is very important hint. THX
Could you explain how the DJI app work with this build? Example. Able to do motion tracker. And others intelligent modes
Is there any way of using the tracking feature while the iPhone is mounted?
Please update me if you found out
Do you know if this works?
Does the ronin sc come with the cellphone mount? I have a s20 with heavy case and need a heavier duty gimbal.

Thanks. That's useful.
A very BIG THANK YOU! It works!
Does it work with iphone 12 pro max and does DJI app work with Samsung tablet A?
Does it work well with mobile phone? Any issues because of light weight payload?
Great video! The Quick adjustment plate you used to attach the Phone to the Ronin can you share the name please?

Filter nd or pl for iphone 13 pro max with adapter? Thanks
Thanks so much for this video, sooo usefull!
Unable to use the record button when my iPhone is set up... any fix?
Turn the phone upside down.
Record button won't work unless you connect some cable from the gimbal to the phone, which likely doesn't exist.
Can you mount the iPhone vertically?
Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!
