DJI Ronin 2 for hire at Gear Factory London
Hiring now at the Gear Factory is the brilliant DJI Ronin 2 gimbal stabiliser. It’s epic – allowing you to seriously ‘up’ the production value of your shoot.
DJI have gone to town with the improvements over their original Ronin. That shook the market up when it was released, offering up an excellent gimbal stabiliser at half the rental cost of the Movi M10. Now the DJI Ronin 2 is going to shake it up all over again! As well as a swish new design, the Ronin 2 is a more practical and versatile rig, and better equipped for a range of different environments.
The Ronin 2 has higher-torque motors meaning that it can support larger camera setups up to 30lbs. Stronger motors also mean it’s better able to resist high winds and G-forces when mounted to vehicles, even at sustained speeds of over 75 mph.
Compatible cameras include, RED Dragon, Alex Mini, Ursa Mini Pro, Sony Fs7 and almost any DSLR sized camera configuration.
One of the best features of the Ronin 2’s redesign is the impressive integrated power and cabling. Meaning no more dangling cables! The camera and accessories like a monitor or follow focus can plug directly into the ports situated at key points of the rig itself. The Ronin 2 uses two batteries, they are hot-swappable and operate together or independently. Power should never become an issue while your filming with the Ronin 2.
It’s now fully made of carbon fibre to keep it as lightweight as possible. DJI has also redesigned the camera balancing system and mounting cage, with easy to use sliders and turnable knobs meaning it’s quicker to make adjustments on the fly with no tools needed. They also integrated a touchscreen to make set-up faster, without the need to link it to the mobile app. We think these are all big improvements.
Finally – the DJI Ronin 2 easily partners a host of other stabilising gear – from Steadicams to car mounts, and jibs and cable cams to DJI’s own Ready Rig.
