I'd recommend getting a Falcam F38 Nonslip Quick Release Plate to attach to the bottom of the focus pro wireless hand unit. It does not want to sit upright and this solves that, also there is still clearance for the battery door to replace the internal NP-Fs.

[@keith-knittel]

Will check that out, thank you for the recommendation

[@egon3d]

Thank you for these informative videos! I have a question: Is it possible to use ActiveTrack without AutoFocus and then use the camera's own autofocus? For example if I want to use a 24-70 photo zoom lens on a FX3 - Can I then use the gimbal ONLY for ActiveTrack and then have the FX3 do the autofocus? Thanks!

[@eprohoda]

Like it~you uploadded excellent dji, ;))

[@dmgfilmproductionandphotog1567]

can you change lenses as fast as without lidar? if not its better to get a mirrorless camera with pdaf+AF lenses.

[@FredBGG]

Great video. Thanks for the info! A couple of questions. When you use active track with the Hub can you select the subject to track on the High Bright Monitor?

[@keith-knittel]

Unfortunately you cannot. You have to start active track with the gimbal screen or the screen on the hand grip. You can get a LiDAR feed using the hub, to the DJI monitor - but you can't activate active track on the monitor

[@enriquegonzalez2674]

I have used the older cable hub with the new motors and calibrated just fine. Are there more features that I'm missing?

[@boulawan]

I did the same what are we missing using the old cable version ??? I wish being able to use / change the same setting while using the highbrite monitor + handheld remote than when using the focus grip handle … Being able to select a zone to focus for in flex mode for exemple … having more than 3 lense profile. I also wich we could use the whole package at the same time. Dji focus pro + 3 motors + focus grip + hub cable + highbright monitor and handheld remote … any tips about that ???

[@DroseMr]

Awesome.plan on using w Gh6 w panisonic/Leica 10-25 1.7 autofocus lens w/o dji motor. Thank You

[@keith-knittel]

Sounds like an awesome setup!

[@DroseMr]

Hope so. Been waiting over a month for shipping.

[@calebgonzalez4112]

What is the name of the bracket used to connect the high bright monitor to the FIZ hand unit?

[@leroybutton5965]

I just contacted DJI Support and they haven't made it available yet... so frustrating!

[@FightNightLegacy]

How did you get this? No one has them.

[@keith-knittel]

DJI sent me the gimbal and monitor to review before it was released, check out my first RS4 Pro video. I can't believe they havent released the hub yet

[@ForestCinema]

Diopter calculation modes are common in nicer focus systems. It’s just some math, so DJI should implement that.

[@keith-knittel]

That would be awesome, I love using the remus anamorphics but the minimum focus is tough for certain things

[@KamproductionFr38]

The main question is when Dji will deliver the focus pro to the public :)

[@VirginaAV]

It was just sold on their site. Not sure if its still for sale.

[@pomanprod]

I ordered the Creative Combo from BHphoto in April. Got it July 7th.

[@FEJY]

Got the Focus Pro All-in-one combo about a month ago and struggling to use with a RS4 Pro gimbal. I have the transmission and Lidar connected with the new cable hub(square one), but as it turns out the gimbal wont power the transmission nor the lidar or the motors with this one. So you need to have a bunch of WB37 batteries ready and also a V-mount connected to the hub for the system to work. Been in contact with the DJI support and very bummed out by the whole deal…

[@keith-knittel]

The cable hub that is on the DJI site right now is still the V1 hub - the new cable hub has a power connection that you can power via D-tap or the gimbal. The transmission has to be powered with the battery either way though since it draws so much power. Very strange DJI hasn't released the updated cable hub yet

[@OsheaHovo]

I saw in the product reveal that they mentioned a future release of a connection cable that can power other accessories from the RS. Once it's out, I'm definitely getting one.
