RS 4 Mini Combo, Gimbal Stabilizer for Cameras Canon/Sony/Panasonic/Nikon/Fujifilm, Auto Axis Locks, Intelligent Tracking, 2kg/4.4lbs Payload, Camera Gimbal, Camera Stabilizer, Briefcase Handle

Bought this for my husbands Christmas gift. He absolutely loves it. Battery doesn’t last the longest, but it’s super easy to use, it is super smooth! It’s got the AI tracking feature which is pretty cool. My camera is pretty heavy with lenses on and it still functions perfectly, it locks its self with your camera on it when you turn it off. Very awesome gimbal!

It does fit the R5 Mark II nicely. But I recommend using fixed focal length lenses. While it does work with the 15-35 and the 24-70 mm f2.8 lenses. you will not be able to put it on the briefcase mode as you have to sit the camera far back and your viewfinder will interfere with the movement if you try. I also had a smallrig cage for my camera and although it is designed to fit the RS4 series it would not fit the RS 4 mini. You can still screw on the plate to the bottom of your cage and use it but it would have been nice if they didn't slightly change the sliding mechanism's so that I could slide the camera into the gimball without needing to attach their base plate. The intelligent tracking is nice to follow a person's head. It would be nice if they added functionality for it to track your hands instead of your face. Sure you can slightly change the composition of how it tracks you but there is a limit of how much you can point it away from your face. If they Just add ability to track hands, also add ability to track animals or vehicles as well and it would be fantastic. Overall I think I will keep this one. I had tried the RS4 and RS4 pro before and found them way too bulky. This one is smaller, more affordable and even has the ability to connect to your camera while also using the tracker. The other RS4 models you are limited to either connecting to the camera or the tracker. This one can do both. It can adjust the focus of my R5 and start stop recording with the buttons on the gimball. I tried bluetooth remote and didn't have any luck connecting to my camera. But the USB cable does a fine job of it.

really good gimbal so far. I had the rs3 mini before, and it was a huge upgrade. it is more stable, and feels better to use as well. technically a bit more in weight, but still just as light. I think it is an amazing value if you don't need regular or pro versions of the Ronin line up

Update: not only did I watch my $5,000 camera / lens hit the ground because this snapped in half at the handle. My camera and my lens weigh just over 2 lbs. Yet this is rated for 4.4 lbs Which now I know is only held together by a small piece of metal on one side with tiny little screws and what seems to have broke on the other side thin pieces of plastic with tiny little screws. But I found out that I have to send it in which takes 2 weeks then it will take at least 2 weeks to fix it so I'm out the product that I need for my business. For over a month. Unless you want a similar experience I highly recommend you do not do business with DJI. Update: Honestly the more I use this the more I realize it was not built properly So today I learned that you cannot use the Bluetooth functionality and the wired functionality at the same time. Which means you can connect it to your camera via the cable and control the focus ISO aperture but you cannot control the zoom because that only works via the Bluetooth functionality And they cannot be used at the same time. Such a waste of good technology Previous review: Started off with a really bad experience * it shook the entire time moving left or right with the joystick (even with being perfectly balanced) * calibration didn't work after many tries failed every time * the update process took 2 tries because the app fully crashed during the first try * dji forces you to log in and give them so many permissions just to use it after 5 trys which includes turning it off/ which i had to do because out of the box it wasn't working properly at all Cons: * the screen doesn't always work when you try to swipe and the UI is definitely not beginner user friendly * too many steps to be able to make basic changes/ especially changes to the joysticks movement ie slowing it down/ far too many steps you have to take within their menu by swiping down picking the part that you need to use and then making your adjustments Should have been on the first screen as that's one of the most important parts F- after you go through and make all of your adjustments as soon as you turn it off they're all gone you have to start over from scratch every time you turn it on * the locking motors is one of the best features I've ever seen on a gimbal don't get me wrong but it takes too long to turn back on * no way to track non human subjects/ there is no camera app that gives you Ai tracking functionality like other much cheaper brands * no phone mount came with the over $500 gimbal * no case came with it *screw to hold phone is Extremely short *dial wheel is way to small made for tiny fingers/ hard to use it smoothly with larger fingers Honestly for the price you pay they should have included a case and the phone mount they are always included with cheaper gimbal brands they give you them for even $150 gimbals.. very disappointing That combined with all the out of the box issues Definitely not a good start or a good company first impression so far... I will update my review after I get a chance to try it again Update: Honestly it's not a bad gimbal and its ability to perform the motions properly, but the overall thought process of the UI screen layout and the basic functions being hid in different menus that don't always work especially when you need them to considering the touch screen is not flawless. That combined with the fact that it doesn't have a dedicated AI camera app that you can use that gives you abilities with the AI tracking module and access to the settings so that you can work it properly in the first place, like every other brand out there including the much much cheaper ones Just shows that DJI cares about your money but not about giving you what you're paying for. Just the basics they can get away with. Honestly overall I'm very disappointed.. I would not recommend purchasing from Dji

My first gimbal and an absolute winner. Tried it with a Canon R50V + 18-150 and with an R5 II + 35/1.4 and it was fast to get balanced and then operated flawlessly. The face tracker is first class and easy to use and especially with the second handle (I got the bundle) is very easy to hold and maneuver. Also tried it with a Shinobi II monitor mounted to the handle with a curly HDMI cable to the camera - I though the varying tension of the cable might throw it off but it worked great. Seems very nicely made and just works in minutes from unpacking. Charges fast too - only drawback would seem to be the non-replaceable battery but the light weight is a real positive.

Pros: Excellent Tracking Performance: The tracking module is a game-changer, especially for dynamic movements. After the firmware update, tracking performance improved significantly, allowing for smoother subject tracking and better framing adjustments. Build Quality: Solid construction with well-designed features. Auto-Lock and Customization: Convenient locking mechanisms and customizable controls enhance usability. Cons: Firmware Updates Can Be Confusing: The app prompts you to update the gimbal firmware, but the tracking module must be updated separately. Quick Release Plate Compatibility Issues: Standard quick-release plates from PGYTECH, Falcam, etc., are not compatible with the stock plate. Balancing Challenges with Quick Release Adapters: If you try to mount a quick-release base on top of the OEM quick-release plate, it pushes the camera further out, increasing torque. This setup prevents the depth adjustment of the roll axis from being pushed down any further—at least with an FX30 paired with a Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 or Sirui 23mm f/1.2. I couldn't balance the depth portion of the roll axis so I took off my quick release plates. Potential Motor Stress: While the motors may compensate for minor balance issues, it can lead to overheating and reduced battery life. Solution: SmallRig is releasing a third-party quick-release plate with standard Arca-Swiss compatibility, which should resolve these balancing issues. Overall, the RS 4 Mini is a fantastic gimbal, but be mindful of firmware updates and quick-release plate compatibility. The tracking module, once updated, offers a major improvement in performance, making it a great addition for dynamic shooting scenarios.

The RS4 Mini Combo is easily one of my favorite DJI releases in recent years. Don’t let the “mini” fool you because this gimbal is rock solid. It balances quickly, handles heavier setups than I expected, and keeps footage buttery smooth no matter how much movement I throw at it. What makes it stand out is the portability. It’s so light and compact that I actually want to take it everywhere. For travel or run-and-gun filmmaking, it’s the perfect grab-and-go setup. The battery life is impressive, and the combo kit makes sure you’ve got everything you need right out of the box. DJI clearly designed this with creators in mind. It takes the stress out of stabilizing shots and lets me focus on being creative instead of constantly fiddling with gear. If you want pro-level stabilization without lugging around a huge rig, the RS4 Mini Combo is a no-brainer.

Love the weight. Help me a lot coming from the rs pro 3. My arms are happy!
