What’s Changed? While DJI RS 2 might look similar to its predecessor, there are some key design differences. The two most notable upgrades from the DJI Ronin-S 3-Axis Gimbal Stabilizer are a 1.4-inch full-color touchscreen and carbon-fiber construction. Carbon fiber not only decreases the overall device weight, it also allows for heavier payloads up to 10 pounds.

Designed For DSLR & Mirrorless Cameras. The DJI RS 2 Gimbal Stabilizer is a lightweight and compact gimbal that DJI has designed for single-handed stabilization of DSLR and mirrorless cameras. The gimbal is capable of supporting up to 10 pounds of equipment for a wide range of camera and lens compatibility. Please note, not all camera control cables are included with this kit.

Offset Roll Motor. A DJI offset gimbal design keeps the roll motor positioned below a camera’s integrated monitor and helps reduce weight by eliminating the necessity for external monitoring. The design also improves stabilization when swapping between upright and underslung modes.

Great Battery Life. The RS can stabilize a camera for up to 12 hours with a single charge of its built-in battery, and charging a battery to full capacity will require approximately one and a half hours. Keep in mind that battery life will vary based on the weight and balance of the attached camera and lens.

Accessory Support. The Ronin S 2 has three USB Type C ports on the camera platform and two 8-pin near the control panel for connecting and powering compatible accessories for focus control, audio capture, and monitoring. 1/4"-20 & 3/8"-16 threaded sockets on the bottom of the grip provide multiple options for attaching the included tripod and other accessories. The camera platform itself uses a quick release plate to enable simplified balancing, setup and breakdown.

Removable Grip. The gimbal’s grip can be removed to open up the device to new mounting options. This opens the RS 2 to the option of becoming a jib-mounted, remote controlled pan and tilt head or to simply attach alternative control accessories such as optional two-handed grips. Do note that this requires yet-to-be-released accessory cables / mounts that are not included with the rental.
