This video covers EVERYTHING about this gimbal and how we set it up. Did we miss anything???
This was very helpful
What batteries for the Focus 7? Do you only need 1 to operate like you have in the video?
2 for an entire wedding day!
I noticed your app is still the old version, could you please show how you did the settings on the new version? Because I'm confused on the layout of the menu in the version.
@@fin._.thehuman sorry about that. I updated the Ronin firmware but not the app firmware before making this video. I thought I had everything updated.
Genius setup! Especially the placement of the monitor. I think I can learn from you and solve my problem of "not walking straight" when putting the monitor on the side! Thank you.
Can’t thank you enough for sharing your setup. Comes at the perfect time for me. I was looking for a way to incorporate a small display and this set up is perfect.
incredibly detailed and clear information. I will be getting most of this done for myself so thank you very much!
Yesss! We where really waiting for this, THANK YOU GUYS!
Hopefully it is worth the wait :)
best setup i've seen so far, also detailed. thank you.
This is immensely helpful - thank you! Cheers, guys!
Really well thought out set up. Thank u for sharing.
Great detailed setup video - thank you :)
Love your monitor setup and placement. Perfect!!!!
Thanks!!!
I barely understood any of that, but I definitely appreciate your obsession with nerding our on stuff like this.
Great tips, thanks
Thank you this video is so awesome ! Keep em coming , loved it so much I am ordering these parts for my setup!
glad you found the video helpful!
Awesome, stoked to try this out!
Holy shit that’s a well thought out setup, best one so far that I’ve seen on TH-cam! Tempted to just ball out and get the exact same setup, except for my 5” smallHD oled!
You guys do always have the best gimbal movement in a world where most people are going handheld.
I think my back would give out halfway through the day using that though.
Thanks. I left a comment on the last vide about really showing the montior set up,better this did it perfectly
Love the cabling on this set up
What’s up guys!!! Been waiting for this!!! Thanks!!! Time to order more stuff! 🤦🏽♂️ lol
always. haha. sorry for that ;)
Great video! Love your channel 👏🏼
Thanks Jonathan!
Excellent setup.
perfect video! so cool and thank u sooo much, man! appreciate!
Great tutorial...thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Great job on cable management! Subscribed
Need this exact setup!!!
Bruh this video was 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Finally a rig that I'm jazzed about and want to build. I'm using the canon 90D with ronin S. Awesone thanks dude.
SAME AS ME
Just got mine today😃😃😃
just ordered my parts ! thank you for this video and your knowledge!!!
Thanks so much for supporting us that way :)
@@Whiteinrevery Thank you- great video, I appreciate the detail and sharing the parts information. I ordered the small rig set up, for DJI Ronin S- locks on top of handles are slightly too high and hit bottom of swivel arm? Not sure why- same part numbers etc. that are listed. Did you have any issues? Recommendations? Thanks
thank you for the video man...
Love it, and enjoying it. Needs some care, but worth it for sure!
haha it still gets the job done.
Hello very nice vid.
Amazing and very clean cable managment. 2 questions.
Ronin-S Adjustable Monitor Mount does it fit at smallrigs bracket?
Can you saw to us more how to manage the cables. some photos or something
Thanks
Ohhhh nice. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I sense the gimbal game is strong in this one.
😂😂😂😂
Just wanted to thank you for the video, i just bought the setup on your affiliate links. great Job!
Thanks so much for following along and supporting us bu purchasing through out links. Just let us know what other future videos you would like to see from us, and we will do our best.
Great video! very informative. Is there a base plate added on top of the plate that comes with the Ronin? It looks different than what I have.
This video is awesome. Any chance you could maybe type up the settings but with the new update as things have changed up. Thanks bud
Damn that’s some pro skills there around 5:00 mark where u undersling while rotating the monitor 👍. Need to practice and try that move lol but thanks for sharing the tip
This is an awesome setup. I have the RRS plates and really like using the PM501 for easily switching back and forth from arca swiss to ronin plate.
nice!!!
How has it held up? I've considered getting one but there's a lot of complaints of the tightening knob breaking.
@@aaroncollinsphoto It's pretty robust. I can't imagine the knob breaking. It's all aluminum and steel. I've had mine for a few years now and no issues.
Thanks for showing your set up. It was very interesting to watch. I liked how you spoke competently and professionally. Your professional passion reminded me of Jake Gyllenhaal from the movie Stringer. Try yourself in acting!
Thanks for the video! How does it perform with Barrel shoots? And new app?
This set up is insane. I see the bicep gains because of it!!! hahaha
Saving so much money on a gym membership ;)
I would love this set up, but I have the RS2 and I am trying too get the SmallHd 702 touch and a mic mounted. Any adjustments or gear I could get to get a similar set up? Thank You for the video!
Awesome set up ! On the S1 24-105 lens what focal length do you use to balance the gimbal
Thanks for the professional presentation. Quick start, no "hey guys"
The best setup i ever seen !!
Thanks so much!
Hello, love your video! Question, what is that accessory from small rig that attaches to the SmallRig ring around the gimbal?
Hi - what mount are you using for the Focus 7 monitor? Great video - thanks for sharing
Love this video! I'm not sure if the app looks different Android to Iphone but I am not able to follow along with the settings and get my app set up. Do you have any info about how to get those settings? My app is showing Speed with Pan/Tilt/Roll and same with Deadband and Roll.... Might you have an update or maybe you have screen shots? Thank so much!!!!
Hello nice vid mate.
Very nice & clean cable management. can you saw us better the cable set up?or with photos on instagram?
Excellent video mate! Curious why you guys shoot on the S1 though instead of the S1H which is more geared towards video.
it's double the price is the main reason. and weight.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Subscribed. :)
I guess some people do not really watch the video since they keep asking for links and other questions that are answered in video lol thank you for such detailed video by the way :)
to their credit, it is a LONG video. haha. I thought it would be like 12min when I initially filmed it. When editing it, I realized there was so much content. However, it does cover everything :)
This is really great stuff, thank you for taking the time to put it al together.
Do you have any issues with the monitor mount getting loose when you swivel it? I’ve given up on the arms because they always loosen when I adjust the screen up or down.
I don't. Mainly because it is placed sideways and not up and down where it could slowly come loose. It would have to fall out to the right which is very difficult because of gravity pulling it down and the hard stop I have on the hotshoe to the right. If the arm was attached to the hotshoe of a camera, than yes it can fall more with constant forward and back motion.
@@Whiteinrevery Oh I actually meant where the monitor attaches to the arm, not where the arm attaches to the shoe. That thumbscrew always seems to loosen on me and the monitor gets wonky.
I have the same setup thanks to you! I have only one question. The Smallrig 2221 base plate which you put around the ronin always slide up and that already in 5 minutes. how did you fix this? because I tighten the screws really hard and that doesn't help. I don't see anyone with this problem and I think that's weird. I'm afraid if I use the ronin longer, it will come off completely
Loved this video! Everything covered brilliantly and in depth. Kudos.
P.S. The new Ronin app has changed the layout and we can't do the specific setups like you did for the app settings. Can you give us updated settings for each user profile in the description or a comment please? Thanks!
I'll look into it in the coming weeks. Finishing up some current deadlines at the moment. You're not the first to ask so I guess I need to update that info haha.
@@Whiteinrevery That would be great if you could do that, I just got my Ronin S and every single tutorial on setup is basically nullified because they completely changed the whole system.
Awesome video. Did you add a link for the dual grips? I see everything but that. Please Sind me a link to the dual grips
Is should be listed in the gear list link. Just click on that link and you will see all the products listed out. They are smallRig handles with a nato mount.
the best piece of accessorie here is the manfrotto plate. Being able to hot swap between gimbal and handheld without having to rebalance the gimbal is the difference between missing an important shot or not, it's the difference between looking professional or not and ultimately it's the difference between okay-good-ish work for a client and great work
agreed. we have to be able to connect and disconnect quickly especially when it comes to filming weddings which is why we developed this layout for our gimbal setup.
Great video can't wait to try this setup, what continuous autofocus settings do you use
Ill need to do some more testing with various lenses to recommend our options. Not sure off the top of my head at the moment.
@@Whiteinrevery no worries, ive recently stepped into the gimbal game so the fast settings i use for pans doesnt work well with the smooth slow gimbal movements as it just hunts.
Trying to find the extension piece you needed for your SmallHD focus 7 to get more clearance. I’m not sure you linked it
SAME!! Plz link us man
Any news on this ?
Thanks for such a detailed video! 👍🏻
Can you tell me, bit off topic, but in the dji app, can you control the focus motor from the create page. I know you can with the Ronin SC, but don't know about the Ronin S. Thanks
not sure about that. I will have to look into that further.
haven't seen such a flexible monitor mounting system before. gonna find out how to build such setup with Ninja V
Mammad Aliyev I’m doing the same thing as well
I just got a Ninja V today . I got the DJI handles and the DJI monitor mount. They are perfect together. I just need to figure out how to secure the cables with rubber bands.
I went tactical and put an EVF on a NVG mount. I can use my gimbal from ANYWHERE and not have to worry about adjusting a monitor.
Hello, amazing setup and cable management but can you do 360 roll with that setup?
because the cable and the handles....
no you cant because of the handles blocking it and the cable. if you don't have a monitor you could and remove the handles.
Great video! Thank you, did anyone have issue with turn lock from handles being too tall & hitting gimble swivel arm?
yeah I thought I mentioned that in the video. I actually prefer it though or else it would pull my HDMI cable out and throw off everything. I also rarely use the joystick so it never hits the handles unless Im moving the arms around during balancing.
what is that hot shoe extension that you use for the monitor?! I need it
Great setup! If I have the DJI Dual Switch Grip Handles, would I need different pieces to make this happen?
just don't get the small rig handles or the middle small rig bracket and you should be good.
are there any monitor solutions you would suggest for the atomos shinobi? If I need to switch to undersling mode
Specifically what was the little manfrotto mounting plate that you mentioned? Thanks for the insight into your set up.
it should be listed in my gearlist link in our description.
Hi can you send the links for hdmi cables. I cant seem to find them online (thin hdmi). I got a ronin s dual handle which mount did you use because I want to use my monitor whilst using my dual handle
Love the setup. What is the name of the extender piece?
everything is linked in the main link in the description of this video for you.
Tried these settings today. My footage had a wobble in the roll axis. Dang.
What's the "extender piece" coming out of the SmallRig 2221? Looking to replicate this setup. Than you!
Would the tilta nano nucleus wheel fit there? The handles seem too tight to actually use anything bigger than the Ronin focus wheel? Did anyone try this?
Hi, could you help please, I just tried your Smallrig set up but the 2084 handles' locking nuts are too big and get in the way of the Ronin's rotation. Any answers or do I send everything back?
Where did you get the extender pice for your display?
I am unable to find the extender and hot shoe mount for the monitor setup. Does any one has the link ?
It is a really good upgrade, but the follow focus you can throw away. The two side handles block it, the good side: if you buy it you safe 300€
Hi. Do you recommend the same settings for ronin sc?
The extender piece for the monitor mount, do you have a link for that?
its all in this kit link: geni.us/gimbalsetup Check out Nut Connection product.
Do the NATO Plate work with the Ronin-SC also?
Can you please share your Monitor settings for the SmallHD Focus 7? The colors are extremely inaccurate with the GH5...
I've watched your video about calibrating the 5-inch focus with the GH5 and it works great. Unfortunately, those sams setting do not work on the 7-inch model. Thanks in advance
did you watch our video on the Focus 7 by any chance? when I looked at that monitor compared to the 5in, I didn't have to hardly change anything as it came shipped with better colors and accuracy in my opinion.
Where did you buy your shirt man? Really nice
Great video… except a number of the SmallRig accessories that you cover, don’t seem to be available.
While I was able to source and buy the Pole Clamp Ring I can’t find the handles anywhere!
Could you please suggest a replacement or update the video to forewarn viewers who may end up spending countless hours online trying to duplicate your rig, when the parts no longer exist?
I wish they still made that part. Their replacement option doesnt have the rubber which is what I like the most about them. Picked these up 5 years ago now so there will always be changes to products over time. Wish I had a better solution but their doesnt seem to be a similar product I could find online at this time.
Do you have the link to the hot shoe adapter that’s attached to the small rig?
it's all listed in this link: geni.us/gimbalsetup Check out Cold Shoe and Nut Connection.
Has anyone figured out the app settings with the newer firmware?
wow
Great video! Do you ever find your camera freezing when having the lumix plugged into the Ronin-s? It seems to happen when I’m switching between shooting and playback.
for some reason, when we plug in the cable from the GH5 or S1 into the ronin WHILE plugging an HDMI out to the monitor, the camera screen goes black and only displays on the monitor. Both ronin and cameras have been updated and still there is this issue which is why we don't plug our camera into the ronin.
@@Whiteinrevery Hi, I am facing the same issue with my Ronin S and A7iii. Did you get a solution for it? I would highly appriciate if you could share it. Thanks!!
@@Whiteinrevery I’m assuming this was never remedied?
I can't find that hot shoe mount anywhere! would you have a link to that?
are you talking about this: geni.us/gimbalsetup Check out the product Nut Connection and Cold Shoe mount. It is 2 separate parts to make it connect.
Hi, very nice setup. My Ronin S is almost identical, with Focus 7, smallrig handels, kabels and ranger bands.But how do you get the bands over the arms so I can strap the cables.
Still waiting on this answer for help... #strugglegang
@@JJackson20 I didn't wait for a answer, I figured out myself ;-) I can send you the photo's of how I did this.
Yea I've been stretching the we bands lol
@@hvdmey can you send my way as well? did you just unscrew the arms?
@@kattblac no, I cuts the rubber bands into half so that they can stretch more.
Hi! Love your video. I have a Ronin RS2 - will the smallrig rod clamp work with that gimbal, or is there another type of clamp I need to purchase?
The Ronin RS2 comes with Nato mounts attached to the handle in the middle so you don't need a clamp that goes around the gimbal like here on the Ronin S. Just get Nato mount handles or extension arms and you should be set.
@@Whiteinrevery Thank you!!
@@Whiteinrevery Sorry one other question - as I understand it, if you unscrew the base tripod legs, the Ronin S has 2 different size screw mounts to allow you mount the gimbal onto a monopod. The RS2 only has 1 small thread hole that doesn't fit the bolt size of any of my monopods. Is there an adapter for this that will allow me to mount the RS2 onto a monopod? TIA!!!
Can you send me the link to your “extender piece” to allow the spacing for your monitor?
It is in the Kit link in the description. amzn.to/39Dcawf
Can you do this same monitor set up with a feelworld monitor??
might not work as it needs the side mount on the screen and has to clear the ronin arm. might not work. but I don't have that monitor to fully test that out.
what is the "technical name" for the part on which the camera is attached?
by that I mean the intermediate part between the ronin and the monitor
regards
it is just a spacer. I have it listed in the gear list of the description of the video. just click on the link and you will see all the parts listed out :) Hope that helps.
Hi,
I love your set up ... BUT ... the gimbal arm juuuuust touches the handel screws. Any idea to come around this?
I mention that I prefer this or else it would snag the hdmi cable and disconnect it. Unfortunately there is no work around for this yet that I have found.
I wonder if DJI will ad a monitor arm that will tilt it for you, it would have its own motor
sounds complicated haha.
Hi white in Revery... thx for that perfect tips... today I receive my plate and 2 handhelds from smallrig and directly try out... but I have problems with using it together with the ronin s... the Ronin can’t turn around 360 because it contact the screw from the handhelds... u have an idea to fix that problem? Thx a lot...
yeah thats what I mentioned in the video that it hits the arm but I prefer that to keep the cable from being pulled too far or disconnected. Going with the DJI handles would be the better alternative if you wanted to utilize the 360 roll feature.
Dude what is that extender for the monitor I have a smallhd focus 5 with that same mounting arm so would be perfect. Also what is that hdmi connector thing?
How is this question not answered yet?
Hulk angry!
Found it... it's actually listed on his gear list pretty much the first link in the description.
@@michaelfireborn7217 I still don't see it
@@pastorlloydg its on our gearlist link in our description. Scroll down after you click on the link and its called the SmallRig Nut, Male to Male adapter, and cold shoe mount.
yeah, i noticed "smooth track" isn't an option any longer... What settings do you use on the new app?
@whiteinrevery
smooth track is an option. the app location of settings changed right after I launched this video. trying to make a follow up video about the app soon.
White In Revery awesome thank you!
What about battery grip?
