DJI RONIN RSC 2 // Setup, Unboxing, Balancing

DJI RONIN RSC 2 // Setup, Unboxing, Balancing - I wanted to help you setup your new DJI RONIN RSC2 Gimbal. This video is to help new gimbal users get their gimbal setup, as well as what the DJI RONIN RSC2 Gimbal looks like coming out of the package.
If you have any questions about my gear, style of making films, videos, or content just ask below in the comments. I'm happy to help, and want help as much as I can (filmmaking is hard!). I hope to learn as much from all of you, as you can from me!

Anybody thinking about getting one? Or bought one already? I’ve really been digging mine so far, small footprint/setup, and it’s functioning great.

[@r.natearanda2430]

Mine just came in looking forward to setting it up and testing it out

[@touchtennis]

Got the pro combo and regretting it so far as I’m not a pro by any stretch! I can’t figure out which ports the raveneye and focus motor plug in to!

[@TimConnor13]

@@touchtennis yeah that pro combo is really for people shooting MF a lot. I didn't think it was a need for me. As a kicker that MF thing only calibrates with CINE lenses, or lenses with a hard MF stop.

[@touchtennis]

@@TimConnor13 no you can set an a and b point for the focus wheel!

[@KrazyWorldWars]

Just picked one up today from Best buy

[@nauka9634]

You might mention that the first step of unfolding the gimbal requires a decent amount of force. I had some problems with it and I was afraid that I could break it. I googled that some other people had the same concern!

[@TimConnor13]

Word! Thank you

[@panasea1507]

you mean the lock knob? i just got an rsc2 and i can't unlock and put it how its supposed to

[@punk3900]

@@panasea1507 you turn it left untill its lose and then you need to use some force to move upwards the part that is bent towards the ground. I hope it helps

[@MaryKayUlsamer]

@@punk3900 Thank you so much! None of the videos show the force needed. Wish I’d seen your comment an hour ago :)

I have to say, its pretty great. it's rare that you buy something for videography for 500 bucks that is everything you hoped it would be.. lol, idk.. but this is phenomenal. cheers

Great video. I’m having difficulty locating where to plug the RSC2 into my LUMIX camera. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your review. I have a question, from your experience, is the RSc2 a good and easy to use gimbal for portrait/vertical video shooting? Thanks.

[@edi18912]

I have a Ronin rs3 and im wanting to film with a more hand held look so I can make fast movements. What would the best settings for that?

nice video

[@TimConnor13]

Thanks friend 🙏

[@r.natearanda2430]

The fact that the axis’s lock is so nice..

[@TimConnor13]

So nice! It’s very compact for its capabilities

[@r.natearanda2430]

@@TimConnor13 yeah we do a lot of run and gun so being able to lock it and get into position is awesome. Great video helped me get mine set up.

[@user-nn8up3qx9g]

Can it work on the phone only because I want the best type and this is what I liked

[@MariusAltegger]

Does the dji ronin app still exists for Android? I can't it in the play store.

[@Schigacevsky]

I have a question, it seems that I can not balance my canon with the tamron lense, as the viewfider hits the back of the gimbal, maybe there is a solution?

[@angryman7228]

Of course the csnon eos5d mk 4 doesnt have a cable the dji comes with to connect. Im having such a headache setting it up

[@CaptainCal565]

How do you know where the lower quick release plate should be positioned side to side? So not the roll axis adjustment, but the actual plate on the roll axis.

[@SeanMcConnachie]

Please help, why does my gimbal rotate once I turn it on and then proceed to not balance correctly? In the video once you power up it seems to stay put. Thanks!

[@binarytech8457]

Do you need to download the application and create account to use the gimbal?

[@serkan2095]

great Tim I have recently bought the RSC2 and it is my first gimbal so bear with me. I have watched pretty much every youtube tutorial and could not really find an answer to my problem: When I try to do a smooth pan or orbit shot around a subject, I cant get the camera to stay 'locked on' the subject in terms of framing. The camera kind of pans in small horizontal steps and then jumps during the shots which means that the subject is not in the middle but jumps from left to right the whole time. I do not want to have to use warp or extra stabilization in post if possible. What do I have to do, in order to get these smooth pan and orbit shots? Is it my technique? My lens? Do I have to change motor and deadpan settings? Any help is greatly appreciated!

[@dj-7154]

Thanks for this. Does it come with the lead to trigger the record button. I have a lumix s5 and wondering if the record button syncs once its hooked up to the camera. Also how long would you say the battery life is? And does the camera twist un expectedly on the mount with the base plate? Thanks.

[@TimConnor13]

Yes, on record button but you can check compatibility.. battery life is long 8-12 hours.. I never crush it.. No twisting problems. - Tim

[@hussnainarshad4925]

Which lens are you using on the A6400 there

[@HrRoyRasmus]

I wonder if this will fit the Sony RX10 IV?

[@rowlandsunday9119]

Please, am having problems on how to balance my camera. A 24-70 Lens. Canon R6. Is there a special tutorial on this?

[@devidsndl2913]

How do you setup the lens for zooming ?

[@joellemorris5684]

the Ronin SC2 is on wish list by now! could you tell me the size of the Arca-Swiss plate that DJI gives with the gimbal? i need to buy the matching QR clamp. thanks a lot!

[@TimConnor13]

It's pretty standard sized.. it fits every tripod I own!

[@sachinshetty16]

Can this gimbal handle canon r6 and 15-35 rf lens? Or should I go for a heavier payload RS2?

[@TimConnor13]

I would bet you can, but worth looking into!

[@dadesignbco]

Thank you for the video, my question is what the role of those cables?

[@stuartwconwayphotographyan9745]

Its for focus control and triggering the camera shutter through the app etc - basically communicating between the app/ camera and gimbal :-)

[@TimConnor13]

Thanks for the help Stuart!

[@alexmayo15]

You made balancing so easy to understand. Why can't DJI explain it this well?

[@TimConnor13]

Not sure but I’m glad it helped! Balancing always used to trip me up before I had a few reps

[@JosephPowellOMG]

Can you do this with 15-35 Cannon R6
