Ronin-SC Comprehensive Camera & Lens Compatibility Testing - Continuously Updated

With the release of Ronin-SC, many avid photographers will undoubtedly be wondering about the compatibility of their current equipment (i.e., cameras and lenses). To thoroughly explore the compatibility of Ronin-SC, DJI has undergone a comprehensive installation test that covers most mainstream cameras and lenses available on the market. At present, over 70 cameras and lenses have been tested. Through these installation tests, DJI hopes to help users be more informed on whether or not Ronin-SC is their best choice.

Note: The following cameras and lenses were tested by DJI, but do not represent all of the devices that are compatible with Ronin-SC. For cameras or lenses that are not included on the list, please refer to actual use experience.

Thats a long list. I wonder how many actually work. Experience with the camera compatibility list for the Ronin-S taught me not to buy a DJI gimbal just after it's available on the market. Just wait a year and then see how well DJI products support your needs.

Dji launches a product and forgets to update the products it launched in a short time. Thanks for the bad attitude with the client.

Do I need to use Focus Motor when i want to use Focus Wheel with GH5S+12-35mm? In Ronin S i dont need to.

Sony A99 MKII with Zeiss 24-72?

I have two old model cameras (A7 and X100s ) and still make me happy wherever I go.
Recently I really interesting about portable gimbals like this.
Are these two cameras compatible too?

How about Nikon Z + FTZ adaptor + e.g. Nikon 35-70 f/2.8 AF?

Nikon Z6 + Ninja V recording externally?

GH5 + Sigma 18-35?

Please add Sony Rx10 IV its a wonderful camera and perfect size and weight for the SC

Nice to see Fuji cameras there. Waiting to watch some (real) tests with the X-T2 or X-T3 and this new Ronin SC.

But waiting even more for a firmware update that allows our Ronin-S all those new functions included in the Ronin-SC as well as support for the Fujis.

It looks like most of the Sony GM lenses won't work in underslung mode? The videos don't show the camera clearing the back/roll axis motor.

THIS! I don't see how DJI can claim that - A7M3 + FE 16-35mm f2.8 GM is supported (and many others) when the cameras clearly impacts the gimbal arm when going into underslung mode.  Major oversight in the design that is largely being ignored (albeit briefly mentioned by many of the early reviewers

Hi everyone, all customers who have purchased the Ronin-S do not express their disappointment, it is shameful that DJi itself produces a wider and more complete list of the Ronin-SC than Ronin-s, it is also disappointing that none of the DJs answer the countless questions addressed to him.  DJI I address you directly, if you really have common sense and really believe in your customers do something for all Ronin-S owners, this attitude you are taking and the lack of professionalism you are showing you do not like, you have hundreds and hundreds of unsatisfied customers and confused by your policy, change course.

From my  understanding, the compatibility refers to being able to control cameras via gimbal. All cameras are different sizes, The Ronin has better clearance than some other gimbals. They probably did  research and a fixed roll bar was the best option. If underslung is an important feature then the  person will have to decide best equipment to use. I've seen videos of big mics on top which   cuts the roll back by half.

Give them time to respond, and I'm sure they are aware and doing something. The SC was a brilliant move by them. I was going to get the Ronin S but will be getting the SC as  it's more suitable for the Rx10 IV. I was told Ronin A would be overkill as  Rx10 is only half payload of SC.  They have released it for lighter cameras.

They will respond   but maybe not personally   as   many are asking the same things. Give them time to update S firmware

Yes you are right, we must give time to answer, but I just want to inform you that it is from March 14, 2019 that we are waiting for answers in the release of a new firmware, the output of the Ronin-SC, independently from Pload, represented a real offense for all those who bought the Ronin-S, a serious company would have brought out an update for Ronnin-s first and soon after it would have cried out the release of his younger brother Ronin-SC.
Here is why in any post related to Ronin-SC there are people who complain about the policy adopted by the DJI. We don't all complain about the release of a new product, we complain about the total absence of development to improve a product that many people have purchased no more than a year ago.
It is frustrating to see that a product that should be the flagship of stabilizers is not at all.
Also do you know that many of the specifications on the Ronin-S page to date on many Mirrorless and DLSR are not working?
Try to understand the reason why there are so many negative posts about the choice made by DJI in the release of a new product, leaving products that don't even have a year of life in the scene.

well there are thousands of cameras that  keep on coming out, the must be focusing on more popular ones first and hopefully others  soon. its impossible  for  companies to  list support for every camera  etc. As for Mirrorless Cameras.  SC is getting the love 1st as its been developed for Mirrorless Cameras and lighter ones in  general  for example the RX10 IV (which is half the payload )

I’m looking At ronin S & SC, I’m using an EOS RP with EF 14-40mm l series lens.... what functionality will I still have if I use this camera? Will I be able to use the record button on the ronin?

Nikkor 24-70/2.8 S is not mentioned in compatible lenses list. Does it mean it won't work with SC or it wasn't tested yet?

Klaus W. Posted at 7-18 00:10
Nikon Z6 + Ninja V recording externally?

Z6 is not compatible with the controls on the gimbal at the moment

I stand corrected, it works, but it was hard work to get it working first time

So you control the Z6 via USB C / Ronin SC and output video via HDMI to a Ninja V at the same time?

Anyone know if the Lumix G85 is compatible?

Please, Ronin - SC works flashlight mode with @6300 and sigma 16mm 1.4 ?

Sony A7 M3 + 24-105 f4. You claim that it works, but Brandon Li's video states otherwise

Julio Caesar Posted at 7-21 05:46

Works fine.

Hello,

And with eos 80d without grip and 18/135 nano ?

I can use the Canon EOS 6D mk2 with a Canon EF 24-70 L4 IS USM Lens (which seems to max out the Ronin SC)
https://konkludenz.de/en/dji-ron ... s-first-impression/

Seem than can't handle the 24-70 gm as the video say, still trying...

After some hours of test i can say for sure that the Ronin SC can't handle the Sony A7M3 with the FE 24-70 2.8 GM, tried everything but without any luck, when it's balanced and i try to tilt he become unstable.

I can confirm the SC is not a good match for the Canon 6D Mark II and the Sigma 24mm f/1.4 Art lens. The Sigma lens is just too long and heavy. Once you have it balanced properly, the cam hits one of the motors in the back. A common issue people are having with the SC, but I'm still happy. I'll likely use the Canon EF 24mm f/2.8 IS USM instead. That lens is about 1.5" shorter and a pound lighter than the Sigma.

Can I Using on Canon 800d DSLR, someone can test?

Bought the SC yesterday for use with our Fujifilm XT3 and lenses. I have balanced it no problem with the 18mm F2 lens. I can't get the control to work though. On USB auto on camera the camera will focus and take a photo if I press the record button, even though the camera is set to movie mode. Anyone got any ideas on how to make this work?

Can I Using on Canon 800d DSLR, someone can test?

Yes, you can. The lens you use with that body will be a more important thing to look at. Heavier/longer lenses may cause issues with the camera hitting the back motor because the camera must be pushed back so far to counter-balance the lens (front-heavy).

There is support for Sony A6300 PowerZoom? Can i just buy DJI Focus Wheel and it work's? My lenses: Sony kit 16-55 and Sony 18-105 G, both support PowerZoom.

Balanced, tested and worked great with my Fujifilm XT-3 with the following two lenses.

80mm F/2.8 Macro (with lens support)
56mm F/1.2 (with focus wheel)
10-24 F/4 (did not test power zoom with this combo)

Just put the focus motor on the zoom ring of my Fujifilm 10-24mm and tested it. Calibrated the weight at 14mm then calibrated the focus wheel. Works fantastic!

DJI this is a joke!!!
After endless hours of testing I can really say, that the Sony A7III + 2470GM is NOT working! You are fooling your customers!

Hi,
I need your opinion on the following topic:

I would like to buy the Ronin SC for use with a Fuji XT2 and 10-24, but why would I not want to go around with too much equipment in your opinion would it be possible to use it with an action cam? (like Gopro) or I would have a weight too low for its operation.
