  • Date: 2020.06.10
  • Firmware: V2.3.1.20
  • Ronin App iOS: v1.2.8
  • Ronin App Android: v1.2.8
  • DJI Pro Assistant for Ronin (PC): v2.0.2

  • User Manual: v1.6

What’s New?
  • Added photo capture, video recording, autofocus, and focus pull support for Fujifilm X-T4 cameras with supported X mount lenses using the Multi-Camera Control Cable (MCC-C). Requires Fujifilm X-T4 firmware v1.0 or later. To use autofocus on the Fujifilm X-T4, press halfway down on the camera control button of the gimbal. Note that the camera is unable to auto focus in video recording mode.
  • Added photo capture, video recording, autofocus, and focus pull support for Canon EOS 90D cameras with supported EF mount lenses using the Multi-Camera Control Cable (MCC-B). To use autofocus on the Canon EOS 90D, press halfway down on the camera control button of the gimbal.
  • Added photo capture, video recording, autofocus, and focus pull support for Canon EOS 70D, EOS 77D, and EOS 800D cameras with supported EF mount lenses using the Multi-Camera Control Cable (MCC-Mini). To use autofocus, press halfway down on the camera control button of the gimbal.
  • Fixed issue: Gimbal did not follow the preset path when using Track in Underslung mode.
  • Optimized gimbal performance when the deadband is set to low.

Notes:
  • Make sure that the DJI Ronin App is the latest version when updating the firmware.
  • Make sure Ronin-S is powered off and update the firmware through the DJI Pro Assistant for Ronin by connecting the USB-C port on Ronin-S to your computer. Do not disconnect the gimbal from the computer while updating.
  • After the update is complete, unplug the USB-C cable from Ronin-S and proceed to power on the gimbal.
  • If Ronin-S has a camera attached and is turned on while updating the firmware, make sure to protect the camera and lens as the motors will shut off during the update.
  • If the firmware update fails, restart the Ronin-S and retry.

"Optimized gimbal performance when the deadband is set to low" - Will this in any way help it return to center after a pan?

Exactly. DJI launched the Ronin S stating that it was fully compatible with the Nikon D5. It's isn't.

Hi DJI. Any chance you could honour the promise that the Ronin is fully compatible with the Nikon D5? It isn't - you can't control aperture / ISO at all when using the MCC-B cable. It effectively locks all functionality on the camera. Many of us have complained about this contradiction in your compatibility list but you never reply?!?

Many of us are still waiting on support for the Blackmagic Pocket 4K/6K. USB PTP was enabled on the cameras in October. Why is this taking so long?

I just noticed something I'm not sure was there in a previous firmware. When I double click the M button, the camera turns into a sideways flashlight posture. The joystick no longer works. What's this for? What does it do? Anybody? Double clicking M again returns the Ronin to normal.

I think its to shoot in portrait mode. For mobile phone content.

I would hope that soon DJI would have a fix and a cable for the Nikon D7200. My guess is that they no longer care. They got my money so C-ya.

I am encountering a problem with my Ronin S and can’t figure out how to solve it. I have a Canon 70D and I am using the correct cable that goes in front of the grip sensor. I updated my Ronin Firmware and ever since my shutter button on the grip won’t work with my camera. My 70D is set to the 2 second remote setting as it should be but my shutter button still won’t work... any suggestions? Thank you

Hi all,

I saw that the Canon EOS 70D is finally compatible with the DJI Ronin S. Woop Woop!
Unfortunately to me it's not very clear which cable I need to connect my EOS 70D to the Ronin S. It only says I'd need a MMC-Mini Cable. Can someone please specify or send me a link to which cable I need exactly?

Thanks,
Paul

The roll axis for auto calibrate is too low.  On a next update, this needs to be cranked up a lot higher on the P-gain.

They use a 3/8" threaded adapter at the bottom.  I think it's standard for all cameras unless it's extremely big then probably 1/2" or larger.

Ronin-S would be perfect, not Ronin-SC.  You want more motor power.

So I saw the press PR for the new Ronin, though oh I've not updated my S for a while, update the FW today and BAMM, no longer works with my 1DX3, good job DJI. I've made a mental note, DO NOT buy the new Ronin, after getting the S from day one, having a shed load of issues, then for a time it worked OK, now new FW and I'm back to the start, GOD knowns what it will be like with my R5 when it arrives, seems it worked OK with the EOS R, whats with you DJI, whats so hard to keep this thing working, thank goodness I only shot my kids now, if your in production as I once was Id be cheesed off. I think I may even just sell it all, Ronon S, GPS unit, mounts, Command unit and so on. So right now it locks up the menus on my 1DX3, can not pull focus, does not trigger AF or START/STOP, just a basic gimbal at best, and a heavy one at that. Disappointing.

I have had this gimbal since it's release. It is abysmal with any Panasonic camera. USB connection constantly locks up my GH5S and my S1H. I am selling my Ronin-S and Ronin-M and will pay money to tell everyone I possibly can to stay away from every  gimbal this company makes. Did I have issues with my Ronin-M? No. But I won't support a company that have literally ruined every job I've tried shoot with it. The Ronin-S is complete garbage, and if you use Panasonic cameras with the USB connection, you WILL DEFINITELY LOCK UP YOUR CAMERA!!!

Hello, we are sorry for the experiences you had with the Ronin-S. For the Panasonic GH5S, you can use the MCC-C cable to access the camera functions according to: https://www.dji.com/hk-en/support/compatibility/ronin-s/gh5s . If possible, can you please tell us more details about the issues you had?

I fixed my issues. I sold that trash for half the price I paid . If it didn't sell for that, I was going to make a YouTube video showing me burning the Ronin-S in a bonfire after I beat it with a bat, and shoot it with a shotgun a few times.

I'm done with DJI.

I purchased a Ronin-S at the same time as a Canon R5. I knew the R5 wasn't supported at the time, but looking through the history for the Ronin-S, it looked like updates were fairly regular, and the camera would eventually be supported.

Imagine how surprised (read: angry) I was to find out that DJI released a newer, more expensive gimbal (the RS-2) that natively supports the Canon R5, while leaving the Ronin-S completely in the dark.

Why should I invest in future products if you clearly don't give two ...s about the consumers that buy them? Your support is a JOKE, they never respond, and you're clearly more interested in selling new products than supporting your existing customers.

Trash can company. Inexcusable.

Before or after it turns on? When it turns on, the holder just tilts up and slams backwards really quickly and I want to avoid that
