DJI RSC 2, 3-Axis Gimbal Stabilizer for DSLR camera, Foldable Design, up to 3kg (6.6 lbs) Tested Payload, Quick Switch to Vertical Shooting, Available for Canon/Sony/Panasonic/Nikon/Fujifilm

Product Information

Without having to attach or remove anything, you can flip the gimbal around and use it underslung for low-angle shots when the gimbal head folds down from the gimbal handle. According to DJI, there’s a newly optimized Titan algorithm which ‘smooths out the fine details’ – and that certainly bears out in practice. It also offers more handling configurations, including a ‘briefcase’ mode where the camera is lower than a regular ‘flashlight’ mode and is handy for low-angle tracking shots. Other physical changes include a trio of USB-C ports beneath the camera mounting plate, which allow for easy, albeit cluttered, connections between camera, gimbal and the optional RavenEye Image Transmitter. Tap the "Gimbal Calibration" icon on the touchscreen of the gimbal, and enable SuperSmooth mode in the menu.

This redesigned carrying case has a splash-proof body with dedicated compartments for all RSC 2 parts. When it's centered, the camera won't move at all—if the plate is too far forward, the system will be front-heavy and the camera will tilt downward, and vice versa if it's too far back. Meanwhile, the Briefcase mode allows the main gimbal arm to be loosened and slung forward to provide unique shooting angles.A mini tripod is included with the RSC 2 that attaches to a 1/4"-20 thread on the bottom of the grip handle to function as a stand or an extension handle for two-handed manoeuvring of the gimbal for certain shots. Get creative with RSC 2’s many configurations, delivering versatility that simplifies even the most complex shots.

You’ll also be able to pick up several new accessories for the RSC 2 in the near future, including a Twist Grip Dual Handle and 3D Focus System, though pricing for those is yet to be confirmed.But it’s worth noting that with a DSLR camera and lens attached, you’ll need strong wrists to use the RSC 2 single-handedly for extended periods – especially if you have other accessories attached. The redesigned carrying case features a waterproof body with dedicated compartments for each of the RSC 2's parts. Globetrotting travel vloggers put big value on getting the best quality equipment in the smallest package. This works with most but not all cameras, so you might want to check the DJI camera compatibility guide first. That said, it’s best to disable Bluetooth and close other apps before connecting to the transmitter, to avoid any juddering due to bandwidth or interference issues.

FOLDABLE, COMPACT, AMAZING: DJI RSC 2’s foldable design means easy transportation and storage, along with expanded shooting options.The RSC 2 is available as a stand-alone package, or as a Pro Combo with additional accessories, such as a Focus Motor, RavenEye Image Transmitter, and a carrying case. The DJI RSC 2 Pro Combo includes more attachments in addition to the RSC 2 gimbal, enabling a more thorough workflow.
