Advanced Features and Versatility
The DJI Ronin 4D camera is designed to cater to the needs of professional filmmakers and videographers. One of its standout features is the 4-axis stabilization system, which includes the Z-axis. This unique feature helps to eliminate vertical camera shake, providing smoother footage even when shooting handheld or on the move. The modular design allows users to customize the camera setup according to their specific needs, making it versatile for various shooting scenarios.
The integrated LiDar focusing system is another highlight, offering precise and fast autofocus capabilities even in low-light conditions. This technology is particularly beneficial for dynamic shooting environments where maintaining focus on moving subjects is crucial. Additionally, the camera supports a wide range of lenses, giving users the flexibility to choose the best lens for their project.
Remote Control and Connectivity
The Ronin 4D’s remote-control system is designed to enhance the shooting experience by allowing operators to control the camera wirelessly from a distance. This feature is particularly useful for drone operators or situations where the camera needs to be placed in hard-to-reach locations. The remote-control system supports a robust connection, ensuring reliable performance even in challenging environments.
Moreover, the camera’s connectivity options include multiple ports for audio and video output, making it easy to integrate with other professional equipment. The HDMI port supports up to 1080p/60fps output, and a future firmware update will enable 4K/60fps output, ensuring the camera remains future-proof and adaptable to evolving industry standards.
The new DJI Ronin 4D camera is now available to purchase, priced at $7199 or £5,999 for the 6K version, with the 8K version priced at £9,499. This investment in cutting-edge technology is aimed at professionals who demand the highest quality and performance from their equipment.
