I had been shooting with a 28mm and a 50mm with a body that had a 1.6 crop factor, so I was essentially shooting at 44.8mm and 80mm. I just purchased a full-frame body and was looking into possibly shooting with an 85mm. Of course, at a focal length that long, all movements (even with a gimbal) are more pronounced so I am actually now looking at shooting more with my 11-16mm on the Ronin. I know there is no "right" lens or focal length to use with a gimbal, but could you all chime in on your practices?

Thank you.

it all depends how you are moving the ronin , walking implies lots of z axis movement that the gimbal is not taking out. we got away shooting a red epic with a canon 70-200 at 200mm from a car on the original ronin.

Wow. At 200mm? I need to try with a car mount too to see what results I get at a tighter focal length.

We used a van with a sliding side door , gimbal was hanging on a rubber band attached to a handle above the door
