Canon R5/R5C/R6 Handheld Rig Setup
An in-depth look at how to create a professional, budget-friendly handheld cinema rig for your Canon R5, R5C, and R6. This setup fixes all the common problems your DSLR has when it comes to long videoshoots, including battery life, ergonomics, and more.
I'll talk about some of the pros and cons I've found after using this build for my commercial videos for a while, but at the end of the day, I find that these specific parts have given me the best bang-for-buck value for my rig. The prices mentioned in this video is in CAD, so if you're shopping in USD, you'll see that everything is at a bit of a discount.

Dual Handle Gimbal Setup | DJI RS2, RS3 PRO, RS4 PRO
มุมมอง 77816 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
After a few years of commercial video work, I've come up with the gimbal build that I personally find the most useful for my own filmmaking. Whether that's commercial videoshoots, weddings, documentaries, or social media content. This is the setup that I always have on me at all times. While I currently have the DJI Ronin RS2 gimbal, this setup works exactly the same for the RS3, RS3 Pro, RS4, ...

Come along with me for a behind-the-scenes look at my travel photoshoot process for Toyota Canada and Lexus Canada at the 2025 Montreal Auto Show. In this vlog, I'll be covering a typical work trip as a freelance photographer/videographer, how I pack for out-of-town work, and a little bit of the creative process. For this trip, I'm shooting with Corim the (goat) videographer, for Drive Marketin...

    Sick setup! How often would you say you actually use a handheld setup like this even though you have the full gimbal?

      Thanks! I'd say it highly depends on the storyboard and vision of the video. If it's all handheld for more a more organic look, or if there are a lot of long talking head shots like for an interview, then this rig will be the only thing I use on the shoot. If the client prefers more speedramps and a smooth overall feel, then this rig likely stays at home and my camera would live on the gimbal :)

    Hi man - I'm not sure if you deliberately left it out or not, but would it fit the RS3 MINI? That's the only gimbal I have haha.

      Ah I totally forgot about the RS3 Mini 😅 It unfortunately won't fit since the battery of that gimbal is integrated, where as the RS3 and RS3 Pro have removable batteries. The Tilta Dual Handle Power Supply Bracket mounts onto where the battery would go, in the regular sized DJI Ronin gimbals. SmallRig does make a side handle that mounts on the bottom of the RS3 Mini's battery, in between that and the tripod legs. This looks like it should work if you still want the briefcase handle on the nato rail as well - www.smallrig.com/SmallRig-Side-Handle-for-Gimbals-2786C.html
