LIDAR autofocus. We've seen several systems over the last couple of years from different manufacturers but mostly from DJI and I've never been all that interested in them so far because they felt very limited as they either were relatively dumb systems and or required the use of a specific gimbal for it to work. But that changed today because this is the DJI Focus Pro.
Let's talk about it!

If anyone is concerned about the few shots where I’m out of focus while zooming: that’s due to an issue with the parfocality of my lens and has nothing to do with the Focus Pro. If anything, it’s exactly the accuracy of the LiDAR autofocus that brings out any issues with the parfocality of a lens.
Well for now it's the best! Am very amazed. I love it!
0:27 - wow, what a great job! glad to see, that you are recognised by the industry as a partner... Congrats Sebastiaan!
Thanks Uwe! It was quite exciting that DJI reached out to me 🙂
Your videos are always very good and informative. Thank you!
That was a superb review.
AND that "B Roll" is is up there with the Big Boys and something that iPhonedo would be proud of.
If you don't hit 10k subs within a few weeks or months, of putting out high quality content like this, then the world has gone mad.
Well done sir.😀
Thanks mate, that's such a great compliment to get 🙂
Nice review,and great that it works with some native AF Lumix lenses for MFT...it could give a second youth to the GH6...and be specially practical for anamorphic lenses....I was looking for a system like that...
I would not use the lidar AF with parfocal zoom too much parameter for calibration except if DJI Map the DZO Lens with a preset.
But for the GH6 the core Funktion of getting usable AF is priceless.
Great camera overall with working AF at last...for me personally went FF road while keeping MFT lens and older bodies GH5, I specially like prores raw image from GH5s (converted to CDNG so I can use it on Resolve) and P4K footage in MFT. If I find some founding could one Day grab the DJI AF set for my mitakons T1 set...Which is unfortunately collecting dust most of the time should have went the Nightwalker road Wich are more neutral Cine lens imho...did you try them?
Yours
Fil
Thanks Fil!
It's a great system. I'll go a bit deeper in my follow-up video on the Focus Pro. It would be great if DJI would add a lens profile for the DZO lenses and I've asked them if they will 🤞
I haven't tried the Nightwalkers, but would really love to!
I believe the Preston Lightranger uses a similar system capable of AF in the dark (if that's what you are in to) - it is much more focussed on manual focus assist however, not on AF, and the 'focus bars' system the LR has shows it's intention to simply show the Focus Puller where their focus is, not take the job of focussing out of their hands.
I know DJI have their own manual assist focus 'waveform' but the promo only mentions it being compatible with DJI wireless system. If it can't feed into existing stuff on set it rather limits its ability to compete with the higher end gear. Mind you the Preston system is almost $30k... so this is a fraction of the cost.
Fair point about (the lack of) compatibility with other systems. But like you said: it’s a fraction of the cost of the system you mentioned.
Thanks for watching!
Dji see the potential, as your subscribers do, in your channel. Well deserved recognition. Another informative well presented video. You’ve heightened my interest in this product such is the quality of your presdntation. 👍 Even though I don’t really need it!!!
Thank you so much!
Fantastic video, and I so want one of these new focus units! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Looking like a tiny Wizard of Oz at 10:02 !
😂 It's the reflection of my Shimbol monitor
great video, no one else has showcased this with a Panasonic camera and with the DJI website not saying it was compatible I was getting a bit concerned Panasonic had been forgotten about
Thanks! Glad you found it useful 🙂
Will you produce a video that shows the gh6 and RS4 pro with the 12-60 lens?
If I can get my hands on an RS4 Pro, I will.
Hey man. I very recently purchased the Lidar, so now I'm gutted they have just updated it. Do you have experience with the original Lidar and if so how would you compare it? Cheers
Gutted! This was my first experience with LiDAR autofocus, so I'm not able to do a comparison with the original Lidar (unless DJI decide to send me one 😄). Thanks for watching!
you could use the phone app to monitor
The Ronin app doesn’t have that functionality unfortunately. Would be great though!
Excellent video & Sebastian congrats on the co-lab with DJI! Glad you tested on a GH6. Question; how do I set up my system where the focus puller can pull focus using a large monitor (Latency due to a large screen monitor) and not just on that tiny screen on the device? I don't need the focus puller walking with the set with the camera operator while recording. $2K USD, that is a lot of cash. I have a DJI RS2Pro and I don't use it because It is just too hard to learn and use. My son borrowed it and thought it was too difficult to use also. I don't want to spend $2K for another toy to sit on the shelf.
Thanks!
Latency is an issue with budget gear. in this video I was using a wireless video transmission system from Shimbol (there’s a review on my channel). And it’s a great ‘budget’ system, but not for pulling focus; too much latency. So if you need low latency transmission the best option is the dji wireless system or teradek. Any other budget wireless system that I know of has too much latency for proper remote focus pulling. It probably takes a few more years to get ultra low latency in cheaper devices 😞
@@RedFrameTech I was talking about latency from the camera to a big screen to be used by the focus puller. I want to park him/her in a corner out of the way off set.
@@Sirrom0206 Right! I misunderstood. So if you’re using the GH6 I’d suggest turning off ‘audio over HDMI’. This will reduce latency quite a bit
A great review and delivered with a calm reasoned approach. I’m trying to work out your accent?
Thank you! Not sure what accent I have haha. I’m Dutch but my ex-girlfriend is British (we spoke English 80% of the time) and I’ve worked with many native (British)English speaking people. Plus I happen to like speaking other languages 😅
@@RedFrameTech at one point I thought I detected Afrikaans , maybe that makes sense after all. Just took delivery of my Focus pro creator combo after 4 months wait. Must say I’m impressed . I wanted to use Iris control on the Sirui Nightwalker lenses but the Grip on my Fuji XH2S camera body and proximity of the motor hub plus the very ‘ backward’ placement of the iris ring make it a no go. Still, having autofocus will be a huge advantage. The grip is really solid when mounted .
@@davidhawkeye2298 4 months! That’s a long time.. 😞 I was also impressed when I first got it. Particularly the grip. I use the grip all the time, even with nothing connected to it 😄
@@Sebas51137 interesting yes it’s married up on the other side with a Tilta handle and that is quite a nice solid stable way to hold the rig. However if you’re using it without anything attached maybe I should suggest you take heed of that well known British exhortation “get a grip!” 🤔😀
@@davidhawkeye2298😂
great video! Do you think it is practical or even possible to use the handle for focus pulling while also operating the gimbal?
I assume 2 handles will be needed and the focus wheel on the gimbal not connected.
I suppose with longer cables it should be possible. I’ve been thinking about that use cases myself, but haven’t gotten around to testing it.
Thanks for watching!
Gh6 owner with stills auto glass 1. Do you need the focus motors given the partnership with DJI & Panasonic, would be interested to see how that works. 2. Does it work at all with auto still lenses? Wishful thinking that the focal length with be communicated via the system partnership. Great video too, excited to see a system where i don't have to buy the gimbal too 👌
I have just reached out to DJI with that question, as I've gotten the same question in the comments a few times now and I think it would be great if that would be possible. If and when I get an answer from DJI, I will definitely let all of you know. I have yet to test the system with a motor and stills lenses. Keep an eye out for a follow-up video. Thanks for watching!
@@RedFrameTech Amazing thanks!
Any news on this, cant find anything online for this question.Cheers :)
@@CalumJelf Yes there is! Look at my latest community post on my channel (I can’t link the post here). In short: it’s possible, but limited and no official support yet. I’ll talk about it in a follow-up video
Интересно было бы увидеть материал О настройках камеры, цветовых профилях в которых снимаете. И о покраске материала в DaVinci Resolve. Спасибо!
That's on my list of videos to make 🙂 Thanks for watching!
@@RedFrameTech thx
Did you try the lidar with haze? No one talk about this but it seems that lidar focus systems do not work with haze, which should be a big stopper for using this system for narrative work and some commercials …..
You’re correct. Haze is problematic for lidar autofocus. But I think the reason no one’s talking about that (and the reason I didn’t mention it either) is that I wouldn’t trust any autofocus system in an environment with haze. MF only for me in those cases, which works fantastic on Focus Pro as well
I'f I'm not mistaken with L mount autofocus lenses you don't need the motors
I’m trying to get an answer to that question from DJI. The previous LiDAR system has that compatibility, but only in combination with the gimbal. So now that there’s no gimbal needed I’m not sure if it’s going to work.
How does it work with the native lumix lenses? Can you use the electronical focus pulling without the focus motor?
Keep an eye out for my next video 😉 I’m diving into exactly that
Looks pretty cool but definitely above my $$$ bracket if the basic kit was $500 it would be more tempting for me... can you use it with lumix lenses without the focus motor? Using the autofocus like I can with my DJI Ronin sc gimbal?
Yeah, it’s not cheap by any means. The Lidar unit alone is around 600 already I believe.
I’m pretty sure it’s not possible to use it with lumix lenses. But I’ve already had people asking me that and I think it would be great if that would be an option, so I’m going to pass that idea on to DJI. Thanks for watching!
@@RedFrameTech They are probably mentioning it because you can control Lumix lenses with the RS3 lidar system.
@@geoffreybassett6741 I’m working on a video about it. It works, but there are some caveats as it isn’t officially supported (yet)
This also use lens focus motors on lumix lenses to avoid using external motors other than tiilta mirage vnd so to have a lighter gh6? BABOOM!🎉Thank You
I'm pretty sure that's not the case. Would be great though!
So your sayin theres a chance!😂Thank You
@@DroseMr Haha! I’ll pass it on to DJI for sure. Who knows..
The rs 4 does. Im taking a chance . Thanks
@@DroseMrI’m working on a video talking about that. Tested it with the PL12-60 and it works. Have to do some more testing with the PL25-50. There are some caveats/limitations though
Funnily, most of the time the presenter's face is out of focus. If _this_ is how it works, then maybe it'd be wise to wait for v2...
Then you probably haven’t watched the whole video, as there are only a few shots out of focus either because I was testing switching to AMF or due to an issue with my LENS, not with the DJI system. I’ve also put a note on screen stating that.
@@RedFrameTech I have watched to the end, and I did see the note. Still...
Still what? All other shots were in perfect focus and I would never say it’s good and reliable if it wasn’t..
@@RedFrameTech OK, if you ask :) I will answer: still, I believe it was rather a disservice to DJI. It wasn't hard to re-shoot, and it probably wouldn't take long.
Whether it was a problem of the lens, or of the Focus Pro, is hard to say now; the fact is, this showed there was something to be concerned about.
Which in fact is good, and I should rather thank you for bringing it to public attention, than rant!
I would disagree with it being a disservice to DJI. What it shows is a ‘real world’ lens issue people could potentially encounter exactly because of the accuracy of the Focus Pro system. In other words: a problem with parfocality becomes obvious because the Lidar locks focus so well. If I wouldn’t show that, it would be a disservice to my viewers.
I really don’t understand how it is hard to say now. I stated it, demonstrated it.. what else?!
too bad you do not talk about what the phone app is doing. NO ONE on this planet is talking about it, so even if it seems mundane and unimportant, I have been searching for info about just that everywhere, and found nothing.
Seems like you see on your phone what the grip screen sees? Wirelessly? This should be covered in a video like this, I mean you are using it to make the video work, why not talk about it?
Sorry it didn’t talk about absolutely everything there is to say about the Focus Pro. However, it wasn’t possible to cover absolutely everything is the short amount of time I had to make the video. Also, the app doesn’t do anything fancy. It’s mainly for settings/calibration and firmware updates.
The part where I was using my phone was because I had a live feed on there from a camera (OBSBOT Tail Air) that was pointed at the Focus Pro Grip’s screen..
@@RedFrameTech I see, so you cant use it to tap focus on the phone, in order to select your focussing subject?
@@SilentD1 Nope. There's no live feed from the Grip.
