Are Gimbals Good Yet? DJI RS 3 Pro

[@stalman]

Tried an experiment, all the a-roll in this video was shot on the Fuji X-H2S with their chrome film emulation, not LUTs added. How does it look?

[@jujusreviews1969]

Wow I was thinking the color on this including your shirt looks fantastic. Definitely checking it out now

[@Ootini4]

The color and DR looks amazing, kind of in awe 😮

[@BrandonTalbot]

Fuji colors are just fun. Looked great man! and I'm jealous of those Orions. Tyler how many bags did you have to check to get all the gear to Hawaii?

[@waynedennyphoto]

Color looked incredible, but I also think it's a bit of a cheat going from the usual vids in your studio to Hawaii. That said, I definitely noticed it - the last shot of you looked fantastic.

[@GabrielFFontes]

That's crazy, because I literally thought to myself "wow, Tyler is getting some nice colors", and I'm a Fujifilm user.

[@justinavila1320]

The active track is great for solo shooters to have the camera follow a subject while you are moving and controlling the gimbal. So I can walk with the gimbal and control all my framing and active track with handle pan/tilt

[@snnvision3189]

Man the colors of this video are dope

[@Ootini4]

Active track is perfect for corporate presentation stuff. You can track the speaker around if they move all over the place

[@Bachelor_Gabe]

I was thinking the pastor of a church too that likes to move a lot

[@MtZionMediaPro]

YES!!!

[@FigTreeCinemas]

For the corrupted shot! Repairit from Wondershare works really well in recovering corrupted files.

[@ThisIsTechToday]

7:25 The tracking part looks better in the sense that "locked off shots" will look more handheld rather than "locked off." That's the only thing I can think of.

[@philamonhemstreet8632]

Active tracking is great for small crews shooting moving vehicles. Right now for personal electric vehicles, we use 360 cameras to “track” other riders and ourselves. Active track could let the camera man ride ahead or behind and focus on positioning, without staring at the camera trying to ride safely

[@AonghasAnderson]

4:06 Manual locking came with Ronin SC. Ronin S didn't have them unfortunately :(

[@stalman]

Ah right, I obviously forget which letter had which features 😅

[@AMPhotography]

Nice video. Now that my few years old RS2 Pro is dying, I am planning to get a RS3 Prod. I only use the active track when I need to track a hiker from the front on mountain trail which is too dangerous to walk backwards. Also used to track myself my setting the gimbal on a tripod in higher vintage point which walking pass trails.

[@eddieriosyt]

Damn the highlight of this video for me is how crazy good the X-H2S performed 😍😍, Cant wait to get mine in couple of days! Thank you for this video!

[@EbenPajanconi]

I just wish Raveneye was BUILT-IN to the gimbal unit itself. Having built in active track would be game changer for me personally. Active track a person, cars, animals, etc. That can free up the user to move around the subject and be more creative with their framing. Have a similar UI from the DJI pocket 3 or their drones built in to the small monitor. I dont want to have to deal with another device to turn on, connect, and charge like the current raveneye system.

[@mariuswickli3206]

Hey Tyler, Great Video! I Love the colors in the Video! I saw in another comment that you used a Fuji and apparently straight out of camera ?! Did you really only adjust the contrast and Saturation in post or did you properly grade after all? Also, how do you get such an amazing dynamic range ??? it looks like filmed on an ARRI with 17 Stops :) Would love to get some insights from you. Keep up the great work!

[@BrysonWooden]

I use active track for interviews and mount my RS3 pro on a motorized slider for paralaxing B-cam. I don't have a motorized head but the software perfectly tracks the subject and the camera keeps them in focus.

[@MelvinGarcia]

The XH2S is a freaking cinema camera in disguise and on steroids. When I used F-log 2 for the first time I decided that that’s all I ever needed. I’ll be set for years and years with my two XH2S bodies

[@jaymills1720]

Could this replace a Sony a7s3 and x100v?

[@cinematools]

I wonder when Z-axis stabilization becomes a thing. Dolly moves are impossible to recreate on gimbals, no matter how good an operator is.

[@Abdulaziz2003]

Even in flashlight mode? That would stabilize the up-down motion

[@jimmyoddone8320]

I would use the subject tracking when recording a class room speaker who moves a lot and I don't have a secondary shooter with me for a second camera.

[@videoguy3110]

The push button lock and sleep modes save an incredible amount of time and make the difference between a device that would sit in the closet and one that now comes on every shoot. I've shot a lot with the RS3 in the last 6 weeks, previously never been a gimbal shooter as I found it slowed me down too much. Shocked at how much I'm using it and stoked with the way it's leveled me up creatively. It's also pretty quick to balance, takes me around 1 minute now. Yet to really use the raven eye side of things much, feels like it overcomplicates things when I'm working solo.

[@PetrosofSparta]

So I've used the active track on the RS 2 when I was running along side a subject and didn't want to fall flat on my face and wreck the FX6 I had mounted to it. The other use case that comes to mind, was the time I had to again use the RS2 to orbit someone rather rapidly and had to keep them directly in the centre of the frame - which to me is also it's downside, it allows you to lock to the centre of the frame, but doesn't allow you to say, keep your subject on the right hand side of the screen in a specific third, it has to be the center, so it's either that or shoot wider and crop, losing resolution.

[@bszphoto]

Colors are so nice

[@HeyItsMeSteve]

I would be interested to try and as I use the Activ track on my vehicle walk around if I could do a few more dynamic shots in my solo set up.

[@TheProjectFunHouse]

The colors in your video are really pleasant to look at

[@stalman]

Thanks! Totally different approach for this one, Fuji colours straight out of camera

[@jd50cut]

@@stalman which film simulation do you use if any ? Also do you color grade any at all ?

[@clausstahl5166]

could you controll the XH2S by cable with the gimbal?

[@5centsmedia]

Recording stage presentations for clients the tracking feature helps with this.

[@zkdoveriepazardjik7]

dayuum dat fuji color is freaking nice!

Yoooo, how do I find Matt’s channel?

[@cinebenjamin]

I'll probably be using the active track on an upcoming video tour of the studio, discussing sound panels, paint, etc. I'll be filming solo so it'll allow be to be mobile and not worry about staying in frame as I walk around the office.

[@josephmoreno264]

Can you tell us you video shooting settings for the Fuji

[@Jadesfishing]

Great video Tyler. I have the rs2 so I’ll probably hold off for a while it does everything I need. It’s nice to see dji is always improving with their products!

[@stalman]

Yeah I think a lot of these goodies are already in the RS2, I just missed that generation so it's much bigger upgrade to me

[@EmileModesitt]

I never use gimbals because I hate the user experience; it’s always so clunky and disconnected feeling. Glad they’re (still) taking steps towards improve that.

[@jinpchen]

Active track is good for car to car rolling shot.

[@DoctorAMG]

The active track from the raven eye is going to be game changing for my channel. There isn't much here on YT but I have hundreds of videos on IG that I'll be using this for in future content.

[@jjones1761]

Active Track use case: concert, soccer, basketball, kids playing, pets etc..

[@markshirley01]

Does the smaller version have the auto lock

[@urba.cinematics]

Does activetrack work on non human subjects? Like a window or certain point in the background? If so i'd love it to make some sick hyperlapses!

[@travelcanada8817]

How's your experience been with your XH 2S? If you had to chose between the fuji or your Canon c70 what would you choose?

[@stalman]

If video is your priority, the C70 wins hands down. It kind of beats everything right now But if you want a powerful versatile hybrid, the X-H2S might be your best bet right now

[@MDBImagesvideo]

Hello, i wondered how you get the record button to work on the c70 as mines connected via usb c but doesnt work

[@Rickymanso]

In the DJI website, Fujifilm X-H2S is not listed as a compatible camera with this gimbal. Is it compatible and they haven’t updated their website? §cheers

[@mattcharlesworth3994]

HI mate! Great video. What is your mic setup, and where are you hiding your lav mic? The audio is amazing!

[@stalman]

Thanks! My first time with this setup, it’s the Deity W Lav with a roycote Overcover

[@CoconutJustice]

Raveneye would work if you are showing a real estate property, if you’re an athletic coach or even if you are shooting a cooking show.

[@VeeTravels]

Hi Tyler, Thanks a lot for this informative video -- I really liked the closeup shots of the gimbal so I could see the build quality. At this point, I am not sure whether it is best to keep my Zhiyun Crane 2 for the next few years or upgrade to the RS3 Pro. I have had the Zhiyun Crane 2 since 2018 and have been using it to make walking videos -- feel free to check them out on my channel. It is calibrated nicely to compensate for sudden turn movements (good amount of deadband). Though the micro jitters and z axis bounce movement can bother me sometimes -- especially on intense hikes. I am wondering in your opinion whether it is worth it to upgrade from the Zhiyun Crane 2 to the DJI RS3 Pro?

[@kernzilla]

Great vid as always Tyler, def appreciate the content 👍 Question re: BT/REC button: got my Rc3Pro yesterday, and has paired perfectly with R5. Using REC button on gimbal performs as it should, but not get any activity out of it for shutter release. Was looking forward to doing some time lapses with this, and even plugging in the RSS cord im not having any luck. Does your gimbal perform the same, works for start/stop Video, but nothing for photo? Thx!

[@dynamicrangeproductions]

Did he watch Peter McKinnons short film using thr dji rc2, with active track it has a ton use cases in the film industry

[@BrvoGrlY]

Was this in Kihei

[@gatisrimss]

Hi someone please help me, is dji rs3 pro compatable via bluetooth with Sony fx30 camera??

[@shotballnxroyalkapturezpho4815]

So I shoot youth football ball and lately I’ve been playing with “mic’d” athletes and I’ve been trying to obtain the raven eye for my RS2. Following them around and even during the games I’d like to smoothly follow and hold focus on the speaker that has the microphones

[@ArtyYeo]

Excellent review. No fluff and cheesiness. Went straight to the discovered facts and did not waste my time. Keep it up! I was planning on getting this and hooking it up with my Nikon Z9 and Zeiss Otus lenses together with the focus motor. Not sure if the LiDAR will work. When you get the time, please review the LiDAR. Thumbs UP and SUBSCRIBEd.

[@eprohoda]

Yahoo~ Tyler~ that is great , catc hyou later~💪

[@nizzy9603]

I️ use the face tracking for my music videos it helps get amazing shots

[@Wahyuvisual]

man what camera u are using filming this, the color slapped my eyes 11 minutes STRAIGHT, its feel like first kiss when i see you grading LMAO

[@Quavea]

You made me consider getting one 😫. Also, Were you using lav mics for your audio?

[@stalman]

I was, which I rarely do because I don’t trust them at all but it still sounded better than my on camera. I think I had auto levels on or something

[@stevenkralovec]

What briefcase handle is that?

As a ginger Irish man the fuji color looks very complementry to our skin/hair tone!

[@RON_ZHOU]

Nice video as always!! nice watch too lol

[@philvfilms]

If you think gimbals are not good your not experienced in how to use one. It’s always less is more with one. You also need a side handle wider grip to even or the movement, get the walk right and be very intentional about what your doing

[@RaphealPersaud]

Awesome video. Would have loved to see some Ronin M vs RS3 Pro footage. Also, this is just my opinion but the briefcase handle is rock solid for me and I never ever think about the safety of the gimbal.

[@WakeUpMatt]

So impressed it could handle all that weight! Thanks for letting me chase some chickens🤙🏼

[@NathansappPosgaming]

I have a real use for the tracking, and am real excited to try it next year hopefully. I record a lot of political rallies and work as both a videographer and photographer. With 8k raw footage I’ve been doing some tracking in post so I don’t have to follow speakers on stage as they move around. Having a bit of a physical movement with the tracking and then a bit more with zoom in post would be perfect.

[@jacent4073]

Can we attach iphone 13 pro max to this?
