DJI Ronin SC Settings and App Walkthrough
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- The DJI Ronin SC settings for smooth footage when walking running and any other ways you might want to use it. I walk through the app and talk you through every setting how to use them change them and set them up so the Ronin SC is exactly the way you want it for you! These settings will get you moving toward the smoothest most cinematic footage you can get using your Ronin SC and a mirrorless camera like the Sony A6400 or A7iii. These are the best settings for me yours might be different but if you start here you can always change the settings to better suit your needs down the road!

One of the only tutorials that actually explains things and doesn’t just regurgitate the same terminology from the DJI manual. Thanks bro.
You're welcome!
Whenever I look for SC tutorials, everything I get is f…ing balancing tutorials. I don’t care about balancing, because I already figured it. I want to know how to set it up in a mode that is similar to what IBIS would do, but the sudden jumps the some IBIS cameras do (example Fuji) when you start moving with IBIS on.
Thank you for a great tutorial!
Thank you for putting this video up. You explain this stuff better than everyone else. Cheers
thank you so much I'm glad it helped!
2021, and you still have the best tips! Solid! I feel comfortable with it now as it set as I need it!! You’re the man!
What I really like about your videos is the fact that you are straight to the point. You keep all important information with no bullshit at all. Great channel.
Thank you very much!
I like this guy. He's the type of guy who won't talk with you if you shoot in anything besides Manual.
ROFL not true I will talk to anyone... I do shoot in mostly manual modes but that's me and my work flow. Truthfully modern cameras auto modes are so good they do more than what most people need! Cheers
The best VDO tutorial on this gimbal at the moment.
Thank you very much!!
Absolutely, without any doubt, the best video on RoninSc settings. I have only had mine less than a week, and am struggling with The balancing, but I did not even know about the possibilities that you have demonstrated here. Thank you so much, you’ve become my Gimbal buddy, if one can say that in public.
thank you very much
Thank you for this video! I had just opened the box, balanced my camera and started shooting videos… they were terrible and shaky! After watching I made a few adjustments and now my videos look 10x better!!! Thanks!
Glad to hear it!
Bro no one went through the app settings thoroughly. I'm glad I found your video:)
within 30 I noticed that too. Glad you found my video as well and I hope it helped you out!!
@@JakeSloan it certainly did!
Best Ronin use / configuration video. Such simple explanations. Thank you!
I’m glad you found it helpful!
Thanks for the vids Jake! Very helpful and with a touch of humor as well! Just bought the Ronin SC and looking forward to many hours of fun! 👌
Fantastic!!! Cheers
DUDE!!! I've been searching for sooo long for a tutorial like this! thank you so much and I love your style of walk-through/teaching.
Glad I could help!
This is the video I wanted. After watching dozens of videos on this product, I didn't get all the information I was looking for in one video. Obviously, it will be subjective on what people are looking for in reviews, but this had everything I needed. Thanks.
Glad to hear it!! Cheers
DJI should be using this tutorial! Some things were driving me crazy but you helped me understand why. Well done!!
Thank you very much
Best straight forward setting clip so far. I had it in closet for few months during Bangkok Covid lockdown. Now semi unlocked, time to take it out. Thanks.
Thanks! cheers and stay safe but also have fun
Great video Jake. Just picked up an SC and this will save much time learning. Well-shot, lit, and sound. Good stuff.
Thanks glad it helped!!
New to the gimbal world and struggled to find any clear instructions on the ways to use it.
I have never reviewed a youtube vid before, but felt compelled to, to say thank you !
You’re welcome! Thanks!
Love this video Jake! I just bought my Ronin SC and this video helps a lot! Thank you!
Excellent glad it helped! Congrats on the Ronin SC!!
Finally a good video on Ronin SC with usable information right to the point. Thanks for that!
You’re welcome!
You put the Pro in my set up in this 10min video! Got one this week and was struggling . Did your setup and boom , I can keep up with my 3 year old on a 50mm, lol, thank you so much !
Fantastic glad to hear it!!
very happy to see this video because i recently purchased this gimbal last night and was very dissappointed my brother, really thanks
fantastic
Gotta love the time laps photos,Thanks,This is very helpful.
Thanks and you're welcome
Very good stuff!
Finally somebody explaining the settings, instead of just how to balance, or play around with the mobile force
Lol you’re welcome! Those features are really fun to play with though 😜
Thank you Jake; you saved me from another setup video! I was sold after seeing the Ronin had the same features available as the lower price gimbals.
Excellent!!
Thanks for the video. I think I saw your video before about the push to pan and tilt and I had to rewatch to remember how to do that. No one else has talked about that and this video was really helpful!
Awesome so glad it was helpful!!
This is the most thorough and concise tutorial I've found, thank you
Thanks
Just got mine ronin sc today! This tutorial really helps me to set it up. Thank you! 🔥
Fantastic! Cheers
I find myself returning to this video often. I love my SC! I also dig that Star Wars / Abbey Road t-shirt!
Nice and thank you!!
THANK YOU Jake - I've just purchased the DJI Ronin SC and had a bit of a nightmare getting my head around it, but this video has cleared a few things up. Thanks again :-)
Excellent glad it helped you out!!
Thank you very much, writing form Mexico, best explanation of DJi Ronin Set up. God Bless You and take care of your family
Thank you!
Thank you, I was wondering whether to scream, now I am calm. DJI should employ you to replace their horrendous in-ap vids. Next test is to see how this works in -30 degrees!
Lol it works I’ve been there. Glad it helped. You have a cool channel by the way! Cheers
Best videos on youtube for Ronin SC rest are just rambling, this is exactly what you need to know - Subscribed!,
Fantastic glad I could help! Cheers
Thanks for the video , I was myself gonna figure this out and put a video but 👍 you did an awwwwsome job . HELPS TONS !
awesome!!
Now this is what I call a great, no bs, get to the point tutorial. Thanks!
thank you!
An excellent explanation of the settings to a newbie gimbal user. Looking forward to experimenting with the Ronin SC - it's all balanced and now it's time to experiment with using it.
awesome!
One of the Best Video on Ronin SC thank you
Thank you very much!
Just bought the SC for filming with my new Canon m50. You have saved me from reading the manual 😝 Thanks

Thank you Jake. this was very straight forward and to the point. very helpful
You’re welcome. I’m glad to hear it
@@JakeSloan Today they announced DJI R2 and RS2 which looks crazy! although I've got the SC now and going to stick to it for a while but would love to see your video on those new ones!
I am going to work on getting one to do some videos on! Cheers
Best video of Ronin SC. Waiting for news.. Thanks
Thanks a lot!!
Wish I had watched this first! Awesome tutorial, thank you!
Thank you! Did you get everything straightened out?
I bought this yesterday, best piece of tech I own right now besides their drones :0)
Nice
Jake Sloan, my name is Gui Martins I am Brazilian I can not speak or write English but with the help of google translator I am sending you this message to say that your videos are very good and although I do not understand I know what you are doing with DJI Ronin SC and friend you are helping very much congratulations for the videos thank you for the willingness to teach all this you are the guy.
Thank you! Cheers!!
Thanks so much I bought SC six months ago and never used it, didn't know how set it up or use it
Cheers!
gold! I am watching all videos you made ,specially ronın sc series. they are the best . keep up doing good work.
Thank you very much!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this!
You're welcome
Just got an SC, thanks for the awesome tips!
Fantastic I’m glad it helped!! Cheers
Thank you, very useful and informative video about Mode settings and mobile app!
You're welcome, I'm glad it helped!! Cheers
Great tutorial Jake, thanks for the video 👍🙏
Thanks for watching and you’re welcome!
Great video! I am going to put much of this to good use. Had mine for about 2 years.
Awesome!
Thank you so much for all the info I needed it! I do highly recommend using the power zoom though! It can very useful and it's easy
Glad it was helpful!
Great settings and tips Jake! Haven’t tried the Ronin SC yet but thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!!
Because I’m not uncivilized....LOL. I appreciate how you’re a ‘real’ guy; not trying too hard to be a ‘RUclipsr’...kinda like me.
We’re in about the same demo...great video; looking forward to watching some more. I’m really liking the Ronin SC so far, aside from how long it takes to set up, from pulling it out of the case to hitting record. (I’m used to my GoPro H7 where I pick it up & hit record. Done.
lol thanks
Great Video!!! thank you so much!! i almost going to sell my SC till i watched you video!
Awesome!!
Hi, Jake. Very powerful and nice video You made. THanks !!!
Thanks
Thanks Jake! A very useful video!
Excellent. I'm glad I could help!
Just got my Robin SC yesterday and I already know a lot about it...thanks so much to ya for tips and tricks❤️🙏✌️
Just right to the point and easy to follow, what you showcase. Brilliant 👌😎🙂
Awesome! Glad it helped
Great explanation and presentation. It helps me a lot. Thank you!
So glad it helped! Cheers
Thank You Jake so much ,absolutely great tutorial . i did subscribed to your channel ! You are very informative, better than DJI video ! Cheers!!!
Thank you!
cool video. I just got the ronin sc for my channel and vlogs so useful seeing how others set theirs up.
Awesome have fun with it!!
Very helpful sir! Much better real world tutorial than the usual stuff! Cheers
Thank you very much!!
I love how you casually talk to the camera. I'm still struggling with that aspect because I got used to using teleprompter. beginner here with ronin sc. i set mine to M1: Pan and Tilt Follow, M2: Sports (POV), and M2: Flashlight. This way, I won't get confused whenever I need to switch between the 3 modes.
Thanks!
The push mobile feature only works with IOS devices. Thanks for a very informative video. Great locations in all of them I have seen so far which is really cool. Great info, well presented. Thank you for doing them!
Interesting and thanks for sharing that info!! Cheers
❤ great video and very helpful
Thanks!
Thanks for this Jake! You got my Sub when you said you keep your framerate at 24p because you're not an uncivilized person XD! Great vid!
HAHAHAHAHAHA awesome and you're welcome! If you have a chance let me know what kind of filming you do and if there is anything specific you'd like me to cover in the future!
@@JakeSloan I make vids similar to yours, just not as good haha! Here's my Ronin sc review - you might like the middle bit where I make a short film using active track ruclips.net/video/mszxBWw8ViU/видео.html
I'm looking forward to checking out more of your stuff!
Actually, civilised people use 25fps.
thank you very much for your explanation about settings. its was extremely useful for me
Excellent. Glad It helped you!!
Nice job, just picked one of these bad boys up
Excellent. Congrats!!
@@JakeSloan Thanks Jake, really helped me with the settings, ill be sure to give you a shout out in my next video from Norway next week and the end card as a thank you.
Appreciate it, and you have defo earned my sub
Thank you very much!!! I checked out your channel and you have some cool stuff!
Thank you for your videos. It is going to take me some time to learn the SC. The first time I use it will be at Laguna Seca Raceway in April 2022. Taking stills and video of vintage race cars going down the "Cork Screw". I could wish that you sere there to help! I will let you know how I did. Any suggestions from anyone ?
Glad to hear. Definitely take some time to work with it and you’ll have it down in no time!
Great video. Thank you brother
You’re welcome!
What a great tutorial, thanks for sharing!!
you're welcome
Txs for this! Bought the SC and enjoying it, but still need to master it :p
Glad to hear it!! Enjoy the new Ronin sc
Thanks for this introduction !!
You’re welcome!
Excellent tutorial, thanks!
You’re welcome cheers!
Great video! I just got the Ronin SC for my Canon EOS R. Question? How do you set up your phone to use with the Ronin. I noticed you had airplane mode on. I just don’t want to get a phone call when using this gimble. Thank so much for all the great information.
Yes airplane mode on for sure. Download the ronin app from DJI and you should be good to go!
This will really help me with my short film 🇮🇪😃✌️
Fantastic! I hope it goes well. Cheers
Great! Just what I was looking for. Many thansk.
You're welcome!
I just ordered Ronin SC. I might ask you some questions when I got the Ronin. Thank you.
Great
Is it possible to adjust the recenter speed ?Greetings!
it is not unfortunately
Best video for this gimble.
Thank you!
Hello , Great tutorial!!
Question : Where are the motionlapse/timelapse saved?
THANKS
it is saved as individual photos on your camera that you must then combine
Thank you so much 💚
you're welcome!
So I came here out of curiosity, because my gimbal has a wicked jitter to it and I figured maybe I just need to try other settings. Your gimbal does the exact same thing and I'm stunned that no one commented on this. Its visible in both the clip at 1:23 as well as 3:45. Watch the road/mountain side--its jittery as hell. Not what a gimbal is supposed to produce.
There is some
wow, actually will save my life
glad it helped
Hey jake you know best setup similar to this on a73 to where you can mount a mic on the side
small rig does make a small cage that would work to move the mic off to the side
Hi Jake this video was so informative as a new Ronin SC owner very helpful. I notice you had the mic on the side. Is that a smallrig left cold shoe? Wondering if you can open the side latch for the mic jack. Thanks
yes that is the small rig shoe mover plate and it works fantastically well. You can still open all the covers etc without any issue. Cheers!
Thank you this was very helpful
excellent I'm glad to hear it!
Hello, very nice review but i own a new one i can't connect the cable to my canon D90, can you watch on your phone like a monitor and how do you do that, thank you for sharing
I cannot watch on my phone like a monitor unless I pair with the camera wifi. The gimbal doesnt have that functionality
Agreed #1 for SC , Thank You n Stoic Travels
you're welcome
From what I understood, my Canon T6i would not be able to connect to active tracking?
active track is based on the gimbal and your phone not the camera you use
I quite like your grumpy boomer style. subbed
Lol thanks!
Thank you very much for this video. I have just bought the SC and was hoping to find an explanation for the best settings. Perfect! Now I have to wait a bit before using it as I have just had shoulder surgery (ouch!). Balancing was a bit of a trial as I am using the Canon EOSR with a 50 mm EF L lens from my 5D. Almost impossible to add the phone mounting on top for active track! The Ronin S would have been ideal for this Set up but as I am not Wonder Woman the SC arrived timely!. Thanks for your great advice. Have subscribed and looking forward to watching your other videos......as I have plenty of time at the moment lol.
thanks
Thanks for the insight man!!
Youre welcome
Great thanks but where was it the you went over setting up the motor strength for different cameras?
I don’t have different cameras for it so I only went with what I had. The auto tune feature works really well to set the motor strength.
What does the lock mode( holding the trigger) technically do? Locks all three axes? When I try holding the trigger button it still pans around a bit as I move, is that normal ?
It should make it stay pointed at the same spot once your push the lock button no matter how you move with the gimbal. If it doesn't then you may need to calibrate the gimbal
Jake Sloan thanks Jake, yeah I may need to calibrate it I think as it does drifts
It keeps the camera locked in the same attitude - that is, level (roll), tilt and pan should all stay at the same angles with relation to the physical horizon. If you truck, dolly or change altitude, what is in your frame will change accordingly, but the camera should stay in the same attitude. Also, moving the joystick will still move the camera - so if it’s drifting, maybe your joystick isn’t calibrated.
Also, make sure you always run the balance check and auto tune as part of your standard setup routine.
At 1:23 if you look at the cars on the road, there is a lot of micro jittering going on. Is there a way to fix it in the gimbal settings? I'm having the same issue with micro jitters on my SC even after I auto tune each time.
It’s difficult for sure but the best tip I have is get a great balance and if you can use a camera with IBIS. this was shot with out ibis and I found out later a lens with malfunctioning OIS
If you are not using the ‘Y’ bracket that comes with the Ronin to give support to the lense then your Ronin motor will work harder and your camera will shake a lot. Do not ignore the ‘Y’ bracket/support.
True
thanks you mentioned things no one else has... Pan-follow etc. With a video example of what they do. thanks. looking for more on that. I see a lot of people mounting the camera to the right of their grip for follow tracking? you say it must be on the camera? (why?)
Thanks! it must be on the camera so as the gimbal moves and tracks the phone follows the movement
Really liked your video, 👍👍
Thank you 👍
Thanks for help great settings
You're welcome! Cheers
Yes sir, I got a Ronin sc. Why is the shutter Controller not working with canon 200d Mark?
Not sure is that on the compatible list from DJI?
@@JakeSloan ok
Do you think a canon 1300d would fit on it
It would but I think you would better off looking at something like the Weebill S for that camera
I dont have the motion control and motion lapse on my app.. what am i missing? Where can I find that feature?
Interesting it might be dependent on what phone you are using
