Hi Max, hi Guys! I would need a little help. I just bought my Ronin-SC, and I experienced a little, very soft, very quiet noise from the motors. Before I used Zhiyun Crane Plus, and I did not hear anything, but I haven't used any Ronin gimbals before, so that is why I am asking if it is normal. (I heared it only when i was alone in a room, and only if i put my ears close to the motors.) Have you expericenced anything like that? Thank you very much in advance!

@SeanChandler067 3 года назад

Hi Max - great video - I've been looking at a Ronin SC for my Fuji X-T4 and 16-55 lens. I'm currently using an OM4 and iPhone XR for car dealer videos, but I'm underwhelmed but the lack of range of motion of the OM4 and the frequent shakes despite the much-hyped new motors and magnetic mount. Should I use a smaller, lighter (maybe prime) lens for the Fuji for video with the Ronin SC, or would I be OK with the X-T4 (526 grams / 1.16 lbs) and the 16-55 (655 grams / 1.44 lbs)? Thanks for any advice.

@dennisporter7355 4 года назад

Thanks for an insightful review! Whenever new gear comes out, there are dozens of "reviews" talking about how it's fantastic and you should buy it right now from the link below. You're one of very few reviewers who give an honest assessment and talk about some of the drawbacks. Do you use the tracking or Force Mobile features of the Ronin SC? I'd love to see a review of those.

@AlexAlex-oi2ji 4 года назад

Hey Max, do you think this Ronin SC would balance with a A7iii and the Sony 24-105 F4 OSS?

@ResizeFilms 4 года назад

We use the original Ronin-S with the Sony a7III every week, it’s an amazing setup to get cinematic footage, but it’s indeed quite heavy for all day works. Do you think it’s worth it getting this smaller Ronin-SC as well, if it is really noticeably lighter? Greetings from Lisbon

@deividaslaukionis 4 года назад

If you will have both - then yeah. But do not trade up Ronin S for Ronin SC. With your full frame camera it is not worth it. If you had any sony a6xxx camera then it would be better choice to go with SC. If it feels heavy to work full day try buying handle bar for twohanded use or just take more breaks or even work out more so it becomes easy weight hehe :DD

@GaryJahman 4 года назад

Thanks for the video! I use this as you mentioned with the popular combo (A7III and Tamron 28-75). I did a whole day wedding but I turned it on and off all the time and had no issue with the battery. I did noticed that the motors do get warm. But all in all it is a great tool to have and especially without the tripod extension it does not add a lot of weight in the camera bag. Awesome intro tho

@BrianSladek 4 года назад

I returned The Ronin SC for my Sony A III because it just was too weak to work with the focus motor and any zoom lens. The Ronin S is heavier, but not by much and it does a way better job with full range of motion. I bought this and am very happy

@kakegarcia8056 4 года назад

Michelet Diez I agree, for me the a6000 is a real game changer, I was thinking in the A7III (I know it is superior) among other things because of the battery, BUT now the smaller a6000 has the same battery, it is smaller, cheaper and for many projects it has the quality needed

@MicheletDiez 4 года назад

Kake Garcia correct, and for me (I have my channel and make my own videos) a flip screen is a selling point, resin why the only full frame I could consider is the EOS R (which I would love to have but it is out of my budget with the lens I want!) 😁

@mgr5550 3 года назад

Urgent help wanted from fellow users. Just bought a new RONIN SC. The main unit (not the battery grip) has a large silver lock lever right, which is used to lock the battery grip onto the main unit, that lock when used as intended does not go and CLICK at the end or anything. It just only becomes slightly tighter, it does its job but there's no tactile click. Have i got a faulty lock or this is how it behaves normally ? I even tried operating the lock without the battery grip and observed the small silver locking mechanism can hardly be seen moving even when the lock lever is moved to lock and unlock positions. Can someone confirm ? Thanks

@SpringloftStudio 4 года назад

I often feel the DJI apply motors weaker than Zhiyun. This seems confirmed from your experiences and I find it very obvious on mobile gimbals. Also tried the new mobile Osmo gimbal in Apple store and don’t like it. I think I’d better focus getting Zhiyun ranges for all my cams.

@morsecodebox772 4 года назад

HI Max, Thanks for this review, really helpful. I used the SC at a wedding for the first time last week. It was a destination wedding in France (I’m in UK) so I was packing light for travel. I loved it but the battery died half way through the day (3 hours after start using it not solid use). I’m not sure if it was the fact that it was the first charge but I had not used it loads and right in the middle of the speeches it just stopped. I charged for a little while and then it ran well for the rest of the day (way more time). I think I will send back for a replacement to make sure I did not get a dud battery. IDIOT ALERT: Something for people to watch at weddings is..... I loved the locking mech for the arms and set it down with 2 of them locked while waiting for the first dance to keep it safe. As normal the couple & DJ gave me no warning and there was a rush to get ready for the dance.... yes you guessed it, I forgot to release the locks. (After the battery issue BTW). The footage is still usable actually if I cut of some of the sharp jolts in post... who knew only one access almost worked.. :-) Just a pointer for new users.... remember to take locks off.. :-) I loved using it and the active track was amazing for the couples session. Used A73 & 16-35/18-105 F4s
