You have three flexible ways to adjust the composition while tracking:
1. Slide right on the gimbal's home screen and tap the icon in the bottom left to enter ActiveTrack Settings.
Under "Composition," you can choose between:
Keep Current Framing: The gimbal will maintain the current composition.
Center Tracking Subject: The subject tracked will be moved to the center of the ActiveTrack view.
2. You can use the joystick on the grip to control the gimbal and compose your shot.
3. The person being filmed can show a "Double L" gesture to activate composition adjustment. After the person moves to a new position, showing the "Double L" gesture a second time locks in the new composition.

^{* When using the RS Enhanced Intelligent Tracking Module with DJI RS 4, RS 4 Pro, or RS 4 Mini, ensure the gimbal firmware is updated to the latest version. This setup only supports tracking a single recognizable subject (person, vehicle, cat, or dog) and requires an environment free of similar interfering targets. Additionally, the tracking view cannot be displayed on the touchscreen of these gimbals.}

When using the Intelligent Tracking Module with DJI RS 5, it only supports tracking human subjects and no other types of subjects. Additionally, the tracking view cannot be displayed on the DJI RS 5 touchscreen.

By default, the "Palm" gesture starts or stops tracking, the "V" gesture starts or stops recording, and making a "Double L" gesture with both hands adjusts the composition.
Additionally, you can customize the "Palm," "OK," and "V" gestures to either start/stop tracking or recording.

For low-angle shots, power off the gimbal, invert it, and then power it back on. This ensures the roll axis motor is positioned behind the camera lens.
