Thanks for the video! The flex cable is super short, but you can stack another one. Josh did a test on the Make Art Now UA-cam channel. I wonder if the new lidar is compatible. It has a better range.
Congratulations on purchase. I want to buy some cine lenses for narrative films. What lenses have you managed to test out that give some sort of character? and what lenses give it that cinematic quality? Any help appreciated
Hello and thank you for the test. I don't understand. The electronic zoom does not work with the 28-70? It's a shame... Also, why should you use the counterweight? I have the 18-105 from Sony and the zoom is electronic and I don't need a counterweight (it's only 43g lighter than the 28-70).
Great contents and wonderful video! Really helpful! For the issue of the length of the extension cable, a good solution is to use two cables connecting each other and reach a maximum of 6 meters!
I enjoyed watching your video. I started loosing interest when you mentioned that the set-up was heavy. overall good camera and review. I may buy as this is a step up from what I currently have.
Awesome and informative video, I believe you said that you can use the focus motor from the RS3 Pro in place of the 4D focus motor? Are you sure about that and if so how? When I plugged my focus motor from my Rs3 Pro it wasn't receiving power, please elaborate .
@@FilipeAbreuFilmmaker yes I am on the latest firmware. If you could please find the information it would be a great help considering I’ve spent way too much money on the accessories for this thing it would be nice to save something.
Hey Filipe! Really nice video! I am binging every video there is on UA-cam right now on the Ronin 4D because I am heavily thinking about getting one.. There are only a FEW things that are still making me think whether I should get an FX6 instead but I am so in love with this camera.... I have a few questions and hope you can help: 1. since the LiDAR only reaches up to 10 meters, is there any way to focus to infinity or will it never focus when you point it to something super far away? 2. The number one thing that still makes me think is that the 120 fps in 4K crops to 2.39:1 instead of 17:9 and I am wondering how much quality you are losing when you crop the 2.39:1 back to 17:9 because you already only have 1712 pixels in height in 2.39:1 - what is your experience with this? I shoot a lot of fast movement and often use slow-motion 3. how bad is the rolling shutter really? I think it is definitely noticeable when you know, but then on the other hand I noticed that the RED Komodo e.g. that has a global shutter looks way more "stuttery" when panning fast from left to right, even though the lines are straighter... 4. Do you only need the DJI ssd to shoot ProRes raw or also for pro res HQ? Muito obrigado in advance brother, have a great day.
Hi Phill, thant you for your words. I have been there too. I think I watched every UA-cam video too 😅 1 - if things are very far away usually I use MF and pull focus by myself, it is super easy to manually pull focus on this camera. But u can also use AMF and override the AF, it also works very well. 2 - you won’t lose a lot of quality if you do that but you will need to think ahead for you composition. 3 - the rolling shutter is only noticeable if you pan very quickly, but I saw a lot of movies that have that on their shots, I think we can see it but 90% of the people won’t notice that if they aren’t told what it is. I can live with that, it’s the same rolling shutter of my S5ii so it’s not that bad, specially it you shoot s35. 4 - you can shoot ProRes HQ without the ssd but if you want ProRes RAW you will need the SSD. Thanks for the questions, I hope my answers can help you.
@@CarltonMasonNorwood man I’m in the same boat.. I have been thinking about this for 7 months now, only that it was the 4D or fx6 for me. I am feeling pretty confident with my choice by now.
Really nice shots in the video! I shoot a lot of cars aswell, and gonna shot a lot of interior for an upcoming project using the 4d flex. Did u use a jib or is it hand held the shot 52 sec in your video? We are planinng on using dolly and slider/ubangi but if you are doing it handheld I might change my mind! It's my first big project with the ronin but from my initial test the system works great! One moore question. How to you calibrate the focus motor to the zoom but still keep the control on focus aswell?
Thanks 🙏 it’s good to have feedback 🙌 that’s all handheld, and that was one of the selling points for me with this camera. I used the 18mm lumix for that and shot 50fps. When you calibrate the focus motor to zoom you can switch from zoom to focus on the right handle, I used the AF for this shots. Also it only works for AF lenses. I hope this was helpful . You will love the camera, but please use a support rig 🙌
The 8K will give you acesse to better shadows and cleaner image, but a lot of storage is needed as the codecs options are more limited. Is a tough decision.
Just ordered on this week! Thanks for the review!
You won’t regret it 🙌
same, perfect for car shots we love, i have the leica R too
Welcome to the family Filip! Looking forward to seeing your reviews brother
Thanks 🙏 lots of videos coming up 🙌

Love our Ronin 4D 6k and can't wait to do more with it. We've had ours 2 years now.
It’s such a useful tool, specifically for people that need to rig it to a car. It’s mind blowing 🤯
@@FilipeAbreuFilmmaker couldn't agree more.
Congratulations on purchase.

What lenses have you managed to test out that give some sort of character?
and what lenses give it that cinematic quality?
Any help appreciated
Solid video, well presented!
Thanks 🙏
Awsome first video, keep up the good work 🎉
Thank you 🙏
Just received my 4d 8k, Flex, monitor and a couple additional lenses. So far it’s outstanding.
Feels like science fiction 🤯
Really good video - thank you!
Im waiting on my Ronin 4D 8k in a few days I can hardly wait loved your video keep them up subbed as well
Thanks 🙏
Awesome review. Thanks!
Thanks 🙏

Hi, sure the 28-70 doesn’t have any inter zoom motors. I use the counterweight all the time, it helps when I calibrate the gimbal.

Please more car videos using the 4D!
Soon 🔥
@@FilipeAbreuFilmmaker I’ll definitely be waiting!
Hey could you answer something for me? Is the Lidar suppose to light up?….because my Lidar system does not light up the two flashing lights….
Hi, sure. The lidar flashing is only seen in camera, you can’t see it with your eyes. You can point your smartphone camera to it and see it 👌
@@FilipeAbreuFilmmaker I thought so but I had to make sure! Finding helpful tips and advice for the Ronin 4D is not always the easiest 😅

I think I read about somewhere that is possible to use the rs3 motor instead. Are you on the latest firmware ?

Thanks 🙏
Good buy!
Hello filipe, great review, can you use the RED sd cards for 6k without the Prores RAW? or it only gives you 4k?
Yes u can 👌
6:50 hey Filipe, awesome video, how do you grade your d-log prores LT please (i'm on premiere) ?
Mainly using phantom luts for now 👌
Really nice shots in the video!

What kind of Matte Box can it handle?
Great video 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿

Hello, can Ronin 4D shoot vertically?
Hi, yes but not with the gimbal active
Força com o canal! Keep it up ✌️
Thanks 🙏
I just planning to buy one, just still haven't decided the 6K or 8K version is better for me
The 8K will give you acesse to better shadows and cleaner image, but a lot of storage is needed as the codecs options are more limited. Is a tough decision.
And the frame rates on the 8k are way better. Really tough decision.
But when I'm ready to buy, I'd go for the 8k
The First that can broke is the x z
No offense you said why I brought it in 2024 like it’s 10 years old
