DJI is expanding the legacy of the DJI Ronin series, by introducing the rebranded DJI RS 2 and DJI RSC 2 and will be available soon in Malaysia. DJI RS 2 brings added strength and agility to creators using heavier camera systems such as DSLR and compact cinema cameras. At the same time, DJI RSC 2 was created to be more portable, meeting the needs of mirrorless and more compact camera operators. Let’s find out about the two device
DJI RS 2: Best for delivering the movie masterpiece
With carbon fiber in vital structural components, the DJI RS 2 weight has cut down to 1.3 kg (2.86 lbs) while remaining highly durable. The RS 2 now supports a tested dynamic payload of 4.5 kg (10 lbs) for creators to use heavier camera and lens combinations while still achieving up to 12 hours of battery life. To further help movie makers on the go, a new quick-charge function directly to the battery handle providing an extra two hours of battery life with just a 15-minute charge.
The built-in 1.4” color touchscreen can display camera data, gimbal settings, or a live feed from the camera. The ultra-bright screen can also initiate key functions such as ActiveTrack and intelligent shooting modes. Other features available in the DJI RS 2 includes:
Titan Stabilization Algorithm – reduces the need for manual user input while compensating for user movement and optimizing the gimbal tilt and angle
SuperSmooth mode – provides another level of camera stability, especially for compensating longer focal length lenses of up to 100mm.
Axis locks – easier transportation and balancing, while a dual-layer camera mounting plate is compatible with both the Arca-Swiss and Manfrotto standard
Fine-tune balancing knob – more precise balancing of the camera payload
Built-in front dial above the trigger – helps user for precise focus control and complements a DJI Focus Wheel mounted on the RSA port to create two-channel focus and zoom
