FAQ

Tap the Auto Tune icon on the touchscreen home page and enable Car Mount mode.* Then, ‌‌tap Start Calibration to perform calibration for better stabilization.

^{* In Car Mount mode, it is normal to feel a slight vibration as the motors operate with increased strength.}

Car Mount mode is specifically developed for vehicle shooting scenarios. It increases the motor torque of DJI RS 4 Pro to further enhance stabilization, delivering more stable footage during intense vehicle vibrations.

You can use the joystick on the grip to control the gimbal and compose your shot.

DJI RS 4 Pro supports second-generation native vertical shooting, allowing you to seamlessly switch between horizontal and vertical shooting without the need for additional accessories. It also introduces a new joystick mode switch, enabling quick switching of the joystick mode to zoom control. The roll axis has added dual rolling bearings for smoother and easier adjustments. The second-generation automated axis locks can achieve smaller gaps when locked, reducing gimbal shakes further.

When DJI RS 4 Pro is powered off, press and hold the power button, and the three axes will unlock and expand automatically to become ready for use within seconds. Press and hold the power button again to lock the axes and power off DJI RS 4 Pro. During use, press the power button once, and the axes will automatically lock and enter sleep mode. Press once again to unlock and wake. You can set the movement of the automated axis locks on the touchscreen. When DJI RS 4 Pro is being powered on/off, the movement can be Recenter & Lock, Fold & Lock, or None. When DJI RS 4 Pro is entering sleep mode, the movement can be Recenter & Lock or None. Additionally, the automated axis locks also support manual locking and unlocking.

When the roll axis arm is fully extended, it will interfere with the pan axis arm during the storage process, affecting the storage effect. Therefore, if Auto Lock is set to Fold & Lock, the gimbal will keep a certain angle to complete the storage, regardless of the extension length of the roll axis arm. The roll axis does not come with the axis arm length detection function, so the axis arm length cannot be identified. As such, DJI RS 4 Pro cannot be completely folded for storage through settings.
However, unlike DJI RS4 Pro, DJI RS 4 can be completely folded for storage. When the roll axis arm of DJI RS 4 is fully extended, the roll axis arm and pan axis arm will not interfere with each other during the storage process.

‌With the gimbal mode switch, you can quickly switch between PF, PTF, and FPV modes. FPV mode is also customizable to 3D Roll 360 or Custom via the touchscreen.

Swipe down from the touchscreen home page, tap the Bluetooth icon, and DJI RS 4 Pro will begin searching for the Bluetooth signals of the surrounding devices. Select the Bluetooth name of your camera. Certain camera models require a pairing password. After successful pairing, the Bluetooth icon will turn blue. For detailed steps, watch the tutorial How to Connect a Camera - DJI RS 4 Pro & DJI RS 4.

Press the camera control button halfway to control autofocus, press once to start/stop recording, and press and hold to take a photo. Additionally, you can use the joystick to control Power Zoom for Sony PZ lenses, or Sony Clear Image Zoom.

Please refer to the DJI RS Series Universal Accessories List.

Use the DJI Ronin Expansion Base Kit to mount DJI RS 4 Pro.

There are three ways to control DJI RS 4 Pro remotely:
‌1. Pair DJI RS 4 Pro with DJI Transmission (High-Bright Monitor Combo) to remotely control the gimbal and camera focus with the DJI Ronin 4D Hand Grips or DJI Master Wheels. The DJI High-Bright Remote Monitor can be used as an independent motion controller to remotely control the gimbal.
‌2. Connect DJI RS 4 Pro to the DJI RS Focus Wheel and DJI Pro Wireless Receiver. Link the DJI Pro Wireless Receiver with DJI Master Wheels or DJI Force Pro to remotely control the gimbal via DJI Master Wheels or DJI Force Pro.
3. When using DJI RS 4 Pro with the DJI Ronin Image Transmitter, use Force Mobile or the virtual joystick in the DJI Ronin app to remotely control the gimbal.

Lens calibration files are stored in the DJI Focus Pro Motor. You can save up to three sets of lens calibration files. ‌After connecting the DJI Focus Pro LiDAR and DJI Focus Pro Motor to DJI RS 4 Pro, you can delete the calibration files in the lens calibration interface on the touchscreen of DJI RS 4 Pro.

1. Use a USB-C cable to connect the DJI Focus Pro LiDAR with a computer. Launch DJI Assistant 2 (Ronin Series), and log into your DJI account.
2. Click on the LiDAR range finder icon to enter the firmware update page, and wait for the firmware list to be updated.
3. Select the firmware version as needed and click Update. Then, wait for the firmware to be downloaded. After the download, the DJI Focus Pro LiDAR will automatically perform the update.

No. It can only work with manual lenses.

Yes. This requires the DJI Focus Pro LiDAR to DJI Transmission Cable Hub.

You can try the following operations:
1. If you calibrate the lens via the DJI RS 4 Pro body, please check if the LiDAR installation distance matches the settings in DJI RS 4 Pro. If you calibrated the lens via the app, you can go to the flange distance adjustment page in the app and adjust the focus until it is sharp.
‌2. Calibrate the lens again. Make sure the subject is in focus at 1 meter and at 4 meters.
3. A hood or matte box attached to the lens may obstruct LiDAR signals and result in images being out of focus. Try removing the hood or matte box and calibrating the lens again.
4. Longer lenses may also obstruct LiDAR signals and result in images being out of focus. Try changing to a shorter lens and calibrating again.

Aim at diffused or highly reflective surfaces such as cement walls, unpainted wood, or unpolished stone. Do not aim at glass or metal surfaces or pure black areas.

When the gimbal is balanced in a level and stationary state, and the battery is powering only the gimbal, the battery runtime can reach 13 hours. When DJI RS 4 Pro is used with the new DJI RS BG70 High-Capacity Battery Grip, the battery runtime can be extended to 29 hours.

Approx. 1.5 hours.*

^{*‌ Measured with a charger supporting 24W fast charging. ‌It is recommended to use chargers supporting QC 2.0 or PD protocols.}

Yes.

The DJI RS 4 Pro battery grip is compatible with DJI RS 4 and DJI RS 3 Pro. However, the DJI RS 4 battery grip cannot be used with DJI RS 4 Pro.

The DJI RS BG70 High-Capacity Battery Grip only supports charging mainstream cameras when they are powered off. The charging speed depends on the camera's charging protocol.
