Chicken Head Tracking™ Achieved
A wild Destin appears! Hello sir, love your videos.
Looks like dji pulled one off straight from your video
Respect 👍
Love your stuff!
Destin! Love your content.
hey destin i used to watch your vids all the time as a kid, thanks for making me smarter :)
I swear these guys have done more for one-wheel's marketing than the actual company has
This is so true!🤣🤣🤣 This channel made me decide I wabted a onewheel whenever I go on the onewheel official channel all of their videos make me feel bored.
Lol I still prefer the little two wheel segways from half a decade ago those things rule
I have a Onewheel because of this channel 🤣
I didn't even know one wheel's exist before I saw them on Corridor
@@Wapaz same xD
Now I get why DJI dumped so much money into developing an ultra-low-latency digital FPV system... it was part of their engineering path towards the wireless video system they used in the Ronin 4D.
yeah was a smart move because they put that time / money / effort into that technology might as well make more money off it and provide awesome products
Me, broke and not a filmmaker: "Hmm, I should get one of these."
My thoughts exactly. I went and checked the price and it’s “only” 7K. Like that’s 20x more than I’ll ever spend on a camera but after they showed everything it has built in that used to be a whole extra product I was guessing it was gonna be 15ish. The fact that it’s actually affordable for semi-pro film makers is honestly so cool to me.
@@walkermetyko1745 same, I said if this camera is under 10k then its a game changer. then I saw 7200 and I was blown away.
The cameras my friends blew me away with in their years old student films were $30k. This is affordable.
haha saaaaamee!
That's probably why you are broke
This is the most convincing commercial I've ever seen on UA-cam, haha. Excited to see what you and the crew can cook up with this! Great demo, Niko!
hey thanks for making the early youtube days such a blast. the microwave videos were iconic to 12-year-old me
How does it hold up in a microwave, though?
I agree, cant wait to receive my new Onewheel
But is it a good idea to microwave it?
Make it smaller/ more compact. Auto light reflection/ refraction collection for cgi importing and comparison. Be able to change from panoramic/ 360 to regular view and everything in between. Make it cheep and possibly add a way to make it somehow connected to vr. Oh camera switching. Slow motion. Cheap and possibly something that has to do with phones.
NGL: that focus system is the coolest camera innovation I've seen in years. Probably since the first handheld electronic stabilizers were becoming available about 10 years ago.
Seriously, after reading about the LIDAR focusing system a couple months back I've been dying to test this out myself. As a person who's had to pull focus on dollies, I would absolutely kill for a system like this on our cameras. I hope it becomes a modular upgrade allowed on other cinema cameras. I think one of the worst feelings in the world is when everyone thinks they had a fantastic take and I have to tell them that the focus was soft 😒
have you guys not heard of preston’s light ranger or focus bugs cine rt, or cinetape, they have been around for years and serving this purpose as a range finder for 1st acs
It's stolen technology china can't innovate they can only steal and copy
@@xblade11230 stole from who?
@@SunnySzetoSz2000 they stole it 100%
As someone who's been in the independent film industry for over 20 years I can vouch for how revolutionary this technology is. With the amount of insanely talented but underfunded directors I've met this gives me even more hope for the future of film. Keep it up you young guns.
So you never used an UDM? or a Cinetape?
I’m curious how you think this system is supposed to hold up when you’re trying to express something creatively.
In every production I’ve been a part of, you craft the story and then make the camerawork elevate that story. This product produces a style that is pretty homogenous. A floaty stable look may work for one film but it doesn’t work for EVERY film.
@@leer6871 They said their video about solar power was completely shot with this camera and I don’t remember it all being floaty. I imagine they were just talking about that so much because they gimbal is something nikos been talking about for years.
@@motionblurofhappy7804 what I’m saying is that the tools we use to make cinematic images all have their own purpose and feel to them.
This product is designed to create one specific feel: a stable, floaty movement. But what if I as a filmmaker want a shaky cam? Or a Dolly? Or just plain tripod movement?
You could say that I can still use this to make those movements but then I’m wasting money not using the expensive stabilizers that are built into this camera.
@@leer6871 Nothing stops you from putting it on a tripod, right? Seems like it'd save a lot of time on set
The lidar focus system what a cool idea. Imagine that in a next iteration, they will let you record a Z depth data as a separate file. That would be super useful for post purposes.
I wonder what resolution the z-depth data is. Probably fairly low right now anyway.
I wonder what you can do with the data form those recordings. Imagine live 3D mapping WHILE you're making your schot!
@@Litl_Skitl You could do add DOF in post production. Maybe even assist in motion tracking the scene, or object tracking.
@@Litl_Skitl You can do almost perfect automatic rotoscope.
@@peterhindes56 That's an exciting proposition right there.
It's rare that a company just makes and sells an all out god-tier product without any weird catches and sells it openly at a decent price. Very, very well done DJI.
In another channel (MediaStorm) it's said that this camera was in development for 5 years.
not rare,,,,, for Chinese companies. Due to competitions and potential risks of unauthorized duplications (clone), Chinese tech products always stuff as many top end features as possible in order to top the market share quickly. Downside is that the companies might jeopardize their sustainable profits. However, DJI have been doing great so far.
7300$ camera isn't decent . It's a decent car in price . You could get a telescope lense and learn how to steady your hand and be better off
@@peterlaikc China is an extremely fast evolving market. Many companies would constantly release what's best to them at the moment to the market. DJI doesn't seem to be doing that, though, they are in a niche market after all.
@@chilling_at_pontiff there are more cameras with far less features for $7300
They're *actually* doing things differently and dispensing with a lot of established, old-fashioned camera bullcrap, that's great. It really does seem like someone on the DJI team saw Niko's video and took it to heart.
Especially the timeframe makes sense. DJI must have realized that a lot of their drone tech could be adapted to make cameras better. The wireless monitor looks like it is using FPS video tech, the Lidar and distance sensing from obstacle avoidance, and lenses, focus, + gimbals from the drone camera mounts.
@@excitedbox5705 DJI is Basically like Tesla, always innovating, and using tech from one Area, and applying it to another.
@@HK_Martin no DJI would never put a yoke on a car
@@TedThomasTT yes, cause DJI doesn't make cars lol
@@HK_Martin Yet!! Maybe DJI will finally build the 'flying car' we have seen in Popular Mechanics going back to the early 70's.
The ~$7,000 ish price tag is a huge surprise considering everything this system offers. I was sure it would be over $10k.
Yeah it's actually cheap lol. But I bet the lenses cost a ton.
@@freddybell8328 they can’t be too much, they’re really small and usually that means (to a point) easier to manufacture.
Also, I just looked up the specs and you can use something like 28 different Sony M-mount lenses without recalibrating for weight.
I thougt it won't be under 18k so i was also very suprised
Way below what I imagined.
@@freddybell8328 about $1200
Absolutely incredible. I wonder how long before someone shoots a whole movie with just that system.
I was expecting this to be 15-20k but it's only 7k. It's actually a reasonable price.
Damn, RRP is almost double in Australia, to America. It's $12,000usd ($16,000aud) here. "The Australia Tax" is real, and it sucks.
Surprisingly reasonable.
@@baconsarny-geddon8298 For that price, it's worth the return flight.
That to me is a heart attack waiting to happen. It needs to be way more reduced in price
I barely know anything about cameras, but watching Nico talk about it with this much passion is always amazing
I love looking at cool tech that I'm never gonna be able to afford 😂
So true 😂
Yea, the 4k one shown here is almost $8000 freedom papers.
me to every cool stuff i see:
Imagine how excited we'll all be around 2050 when this is on "retro tech week" sale
@@SprintingWildebeast that seems like a steal for the capability
One of the most amazing things about that integrated gimbal is that it only needs to move the components that need to be on a gimbal. Only the sensor and the lens basically.
On third party gimbals you are often stabilizing the battery aswell, or the storage media, the cpu of the camera, the heatsink on that, all that dead mass that absolutly doesn't need to be stabilized.
The tracking is insane. ActiveTrack Pro together with the Lidar Autofocus system, game changer!!!
I love how they have an entire montage of wren doing cool one wheel stuff then immediately eats it when they go inside
Classic lol
Good story telling.
The crazy thing about this to me, is that despite it's two main flaws that Nico mentions at the end, the cost is actually *pretty fucking good* at $6700 USD. Don't get me wrong, I (and most of us here) can't afford this, but here's the thing:
By the time you buy a nice camera ($3500+/-), a nice gimbal for your nice camera($1200+/- and rebalancing etc.), a nice wireless setup for your nice camera(hundreds), and some way to pull focus in a nice way($$ and many man hours), you will have probably met or actually EXCEEDED the cost of this camera...Once you have this setup, you STILL won't have 4 axis stabilization, and you *absolutely* will not have the LIDAR autofocus/focus pulling.
...So not only is this a revolutionary camera, the price is MORE than competitive for what it offers, apart from a couple downsides (the lenses, which can be addressed) and the RAW format. Really quite amazing.
No joke, I assumed this camera was around $12k to $15k. This is an insane price for such a capable machine.
i thought you were mistaken, maybe missed a 0, but nope, this thing is UNDER?!? 10k? holy cow thats insanely good value!
oh no way, i thought the this camera would be atleast 20k, $6700 is way too cheap for that.
The camera body for a pro camera is usually more than that. I wonder if they will make a more modular one in the future, since not everyone will need the gimbals, or will want to build up their system over time, but at this price I feel they are going to crush the competition.
@@excitedbox5705 If I had to guess, prooobably not. Since DJI doesn't have the brand recognition (when it comes to cameras/sensors anyways) that RED, Sony, blackmagic etc. do, people would be wary of purchasing the body itself, which I also think is where most of the cost is. Since DJI has tons of experience making gimbals and drones etc. I have a feeling that the reason for this price is that they can build everything around the camera relatively cheaply, and therefore sell it at the price point it's at.
The body itself (if I had to guess) would probably not be that much cheaper to buy. I have a feeling this is their push to try to make a name for themselves in the professional camera space, and after this "flagship" product becomes successful they might start selling bodies by themselves.
This may have been a 15 minute long advert but the raw passion you guys have for the tech make it feel like a documentary. Really nice to see someone take the ‘perfect camera’ video and make it happen.
Honestly, Wren needs to become the official spokesperson for one wheel because that montage made me want one more than any other video on this channel.
One wheel is too slow compare to EUC
This is actually exciting af for us indie filmmakers. You guys are forgetting that this is not a camera most of us will buy. But you can be damn sure I’ll rent it for a production. It will be expensive but all the features also SAVE money. Amazing product
Same for a lot of TV production companies.
Sounds like it's a big saver in number of people you need to pull off that sort of stuff and that's where the real cost savings come in.
Yeah most people in the industry rent there cameras
Save money AND time!
Me, someone who has never filmed anything and probably never will: "I need this."
Exactly, just check the price is about 40KCNY,… that’s not so much.
I literally do NOT need this ... but if I didn't have a car payment I'd totally do the 12 month financing for one. Why? Who knows. But I'd love to play with it.
Literally what i just said
Damn, Ronin has evolved so much. Ronin 4D is indeed a perfect camera!
So happy to be featured in your video at 7:14 😍 Warm greetings from Germany
As a disabled videographer/ photographer Yall don’t know how long I’ve been waiting to hear about a camera/gimble system like this. Like I’m getting chills lol.
Bruh, you're specially abled not disabled.
@@deepghosh7626 it's all about perspective
@@deepghosh7626 Lots of people in that community prefer the term 'disabled' because they don't see it as a horrible thing to need help or not be able to do certain things and prefer to take it in stride. To many it's an "I'm disabled. And that doesn't change my value as a human being whatsoever" thing.
But different people in the community or really, any community, especially marginalized ones, have different preferences and ways they want to be addressed because they're not a monolith.
What I've learned over time is just that you should respect what someone prefers as much as you can. So, for me, when I see someone refer to themselves as specially abled, disabled, person with a disability, or different labels in say, the LGBT+ community, I go with that if I can.
@@Saad-A16 I'm under the impression that disabled is a somewhat regressive term, people are born with different capacities of they develop capabilities. So, they are different from us and hence' specially abled'
@@deepghosh7626 I understand that, and that's not necessarily wrong, but many people you'd refer to as specially abled wouldn't like that, including many of the activists fighting for rights and more inclusion.
For me, personally, even if I don't like how a person identifies themselves, I would refer to them as such, since that's what they've indicated they like. Unless it's a slur akin to the n-word, which I don't think disabled is even if you consider it a slur.
If you wish, I think there's multiple articles written by people who you'd refer to as specially abled saying they prefer the term disabled most, and more so than person/people with disability/ies that'd better explain it than I could.
3:41 “or if you’re riding a one wheel not crash it” RIP Carmichael 😞
And wren
Wren also crashed and needed surgery lol
@@Robokid309 theres a specific video I am referring to
@@SenseiSeth what video?
@@SenseiSethdamn seth you in every comments section on youtube, from martial arts to camera's keep up the activity,
(edit)
I expect to see higher quality video's as well since your here
so good, i "stumbled" across your channel looking at this DJI Ronin, and I just want to say, your channel is the best thing I've found on youtube for ages. I went & had a look at some of your other posts after watching this great content and it's all so brilliant. well done guys, you're so professional and talented. Laughed loud at the Batman post.
This seems like a perfect youtuber camera setup, Hollywood still need the ability to pick parts and rigs but this is perfect for someone who needs an all in one setup.
The perfect camera for indie film makers without large crews. This camera is a dream.
this would be an amazing camera for short films, documentaries, indie films or 2nd unit crew for a big picture. Not at all youtuber camera setup unless your content is as awesome as corridor.
The shot with Wren doing that trick with the dust was so AWESOME, nice work
well done dji.... changing the game!
Just like this side scrolling comment section on UA-cam. Love it 👍
I swear you guys have probably some of the best first impressions/breakdown videos about camera equipment and visual effects I've ever seen. The DJI video released certainly peaked my interest but you using some live examples of how good the camera and it's accessories are really convinced me that this is going to be an incredible piece of equipment and a game changer.
I don't think this'll be an ARRI killer, but it's certainly going to push many to achieve the same standards DJI just opened up with this Ronin 4D. Great retrospective, I can't wait to see the type of on-set use of this camera for your videos moving forward.
5:28 I love how jake is just enjoying the wireless camera control and smiling his ass off...
All the folks saying how expensive this camera is sure make me feel old... When I started out my first purchase was a Sony V5000 - it shot Hi8 (!) and was a giant shoulder-mount camera and was about the same price as the DJI. If I'd wanted broadcast quality like a Betacam SP it would've cost 50K... As for a filmic look, well then I'd need at least 100K for a basic Arriflex package (and would need a crew to use it and record sound and would need several more thousands for Post Production!). Seriously we are sooo spoiled for choice these days. Amazing time to be a creator and I wish I was 20yrs younger! :)
If people think this camera is expensive they really need to look at how much a Red is…
great comment couldnt be more true
Shoulder mounted is still good. Gimbals are so overused
Honestly when I went looking for the price, my expectation was it was going to somewhere between £15k and £25k (about $20k to $28k US). DJI have achieved an astonishing price point!
I think perhaps many people complaining at the price, are perhaps comparing this to cameras and gimbles more suited to personal vlogging. If you look at this as an alternative to something like a $2k - 3$k Sony, Canon, or Nikon plus a handheld gimbal, and make the mistake of thinking these are comparable products, of course it will appear expensive. But the same is true if you do the same with a BMW M3, and a Porsche 911 GT3 RS.
@@damionlee7658 Most people here as you said are used to vlogging on $1500 max camera setup. They think youtube is the peak of professionalism.
Ah yes, there's the DJI Fly app giving me an ad on my phone while watching this video.
Omg its nerfboyproductions
They gotta make money to fund the R&D cost of this camera somehow xD
Same
As someone who’s relatively new to making films and using cinema cameras this gets me so hyped to see what the future of handhelds cameras will be and i can’t wait to try this thing out one day
I have literally never ever dipped into film making but this camera just makes me so excited. Just as a piece of technology, it's really cool.
There is no fit for this in my life or my content but my god I wish there was! This thing looks mental! 🤯
My thoughts exactly!
You watch corridor? that's dope
Oh hey Tom !! Nice to see you here mate !
Get it anyway Tom! Use it for your vlogs so you can write it off.
the LIDAR focusing system is one of the coolest things i've seen on any camera ever
The iPhone 12 and 13 have them. It’s very helpful
@@carrioncrow8191 yeah i have a 12 Pro Max and love it, but that 3D "histogram" is some next level shit
I wonder if you can pull a depth mask from the infrared data... That would be a game changer for compositing.
@@z3dar I believe it only works up to 10m (32ft), saw that in another review.
@@maximilliannewcombe1719 Ok, the resolution is probably also lacking atm since depth mask is not the main function of the infrared camera. That's something they could improve in the future, especially now that they'd have a double use for the hardware.
How proper depth sensor is not part of every high budget film camera is beyond me. With high enough depth cam resolution you could pretty much ignore greenscreens, just film anywhere and get a perfect matte every time!
I have never seen Niko as excited as this.
I'll keep an eye out for projects that will be using this power house of a camera
I saw this and instantly decided that i need this camera. Have always wanted a Red. Either the Gemini, or one of the better models. But while they arent too expensive when it comes to professional movie gear that is actual high theatrical quality (just look at movies filmed with red, like The Revenant and more). They are way more expensive than anything i can afford. Especially since the Gemini itself is 19k USD. That is without gear needed to get it to actually work proberly. You still need lenses, rigs, and more. It simply becomes too expensive, to the point where i just cant afford it. Now i love the red, they have exactly the look and depth i love in movies, even raw without editing or using filters. And thats why i at first focused on that camera. But again, you need to buy so much stuff along with it to actually have a functioning camera, and even more if you want an easy to work with camera if you arent filming with a larger crew and with a decent and professional movie budget, like blockbusters or smth. And its just too much work and money for me who rn dont have any possibility of getting a crew like that.
This camera though. Damn. Everything that you have to buy separately with the red, you just get in this camera (except for some things ofc). And not only that, i checked the price. And idk if this is actually the price for it or if its just the price for ordering it before release, cus ngl it seems very cheap for what you're actually getting. But this camera is about 7k USD. Now idk if the actual filming quality of this camera is to the level of a red, so far i would say its close enough to the point where i dont care if the red is higher image quality, cus i can barely tell. And yeah, a red you can swap into many different rigs and gimbles, and you can put alot of different gear on it, and its a very flexible and varied camera in that sense. But you still have to buy all this stuff separately and use time getting it to work. Which 1 is SUPER expensive. And 2 extremely time consuming.
If u can get this camera for 7k and all you need is just to but lenses separately (which the webside has as well) then screw wether or not a red or any other cinema camera has better image, and more possibilities. This makes work as easy for you as possible, and gives you everything that you absolutely need, in one package. And a relatively cheap one.
This came out of nowhere and it's crazy how much they nailed on their first try.
Dji has dominated the drone and gimbal market by listening to consumers, I think it's only a matter of time before they take a decent pie out of the cinema camera pie too.
It's crazy to think that this company used to be just a camera accessory manufacturer.
I got chills when he talked about the focus adjustment….that’s HUGE
InSANE vid, bro! Best yet, IMHO, and I've watched a ton of them. So best that I sub'd to your channel on this alone. Can't wait to (now) watch the linked/mentioned vid to see what else you have up your sleeve!
I'm super amped for this camera and y'all doing this review has me even more ready to jump! Awesome video!
Oh damn... rebalancing ist such a pain... this concept is awesome... damn I just ordered an A7s iii.... but this looks cooler

Jaa Open mind ist auch hier!!!
I have read that you can mount Sony E Mount lenses on this.
@@basierteruser ja für meinen Content etwas overkill aber ich steh einfach auf geiles Gear :)
When you said “Lidar”
i actually said “Holy shit” out loud. that is genius
Companies in professional film industry have been doing this since 2013. Dji just made it “mainstream” so everyone thinks they invented it lol.
@@ReadySetGoPictures Did they have a visual representation of the image though? Cinetape just throws out a measurement doesn't it?
@@maverickdigital5410 Cinetape came out in like 2012 if I remember correctly, its ultrasonic too. Most are. The LR2 is the closest thing to this.LR2 is obviously much more expensive and has many more tools. With DJI, Its a cool feature, ill admit, but I would personally like to test it out side by side on a LR2 setup. I don't need the image from dji (which is still cool) to see where I need to be focused, I can just use the readouts from one the the LR2 readings and be able to tell the distance from someones hands to their face. I could see the image being distracting. Or just know the distance old school haha.for $400 i don't expect much. A lot goes in to these types of measuring devices, angle of beam, degree of accuracy, haze/fog tolerance, ability to have an offset. I don't think DJI is going to revolutionize wireless focus. They tried with a hand unit years ago and it didn't work. Im sure their is some latency in their "motors". Again, its cool what they are doing, but I think high end / professional sets will continue to use industry standard tools. Its good to see innovation and creativity, but there are always trade offs with stuff like this. EDIT: also these tools are secondary in my mind. I don't ever go 100% off of these or limit my ability by needing them to accurately pull.
Congratulations guys! So happy you guys got the perfect camera. Very excited as you continue to level up your game! I do not do filmmaking or anything with cameras and I hung on to every word 🤣.
great video, this is the first of the review videos I watched so far that actually get me excited about the platform. It is def going to be a game changer in the cinema business. It feels like a jacked version of the old OSMO Pro x5 bc they had a 4th axis stabilizer as well but the micro 4/3 sensor was a deal breaker for me doing interior work on houses. Full frame will be a total winner.
Niko, I love the passion you brought to this video and the passion corridor digital brings to the channel. Seeing you discuss the paradigm shifts was awesome and you explained them all so well that I a layperson could properly appreciate this awesome camera.
I could watch Neko geek out on cameras forever ngl, some of my favourite content ❤️ Love you guys and your work
Same. I love to watch people share their passions.
Absolutely love the review! One thing to keep in mind is the £8,000 price tag is mainly for convenience. 90% of the features in this already exist, many of them already supplied by DJI themselves. For example using a gimbal (£700), a 4-6k raw camera (£1500), DJI's Raveneye where you can control the live settings and motion of the camera on a connected external monitor (£200) and the new DJI 3D-Focus add-on which automatically adjusts the focus based on sensors and distances (£200), so all in all, you'd get the exact same thing for
The big innovation I keep expecting to see but which never seems to really come to fruition are "light field" cameras like the Lytro, where the sensor measures light rays in a three-dimensional way which has some really cool feature; first, you can focus each shot *after* shooting since everything is essentially captured in focus at the time, and you can blur out background and foreground later. It also eliminates the need for green-screen, because you can use the distance to cut out the parts you don't want.
No idea why it's so slow on the uptake, because that has always seemed like a game changer to me, but the technology has been struggling to gain ground for a while now (more than a decade).
What’s it been like!? 2 years? Long awaited video!
Edit: midway watching the video Niko mentioned the old video and it’s from 2018, so 3 years old. Man time passes fast!
Thanks for making theses amazing videos!
If the lens Choice wasn't so limiting this would literally be perfection

Gosh if all infomercials were this well made and entertaining, I'd watch them all! You guys have the best job in the world no joke! I love everything you make!
What’s crazy to think about is how Animation for years could do things that real world cameras couldn’t do and thus made it more unrealistic. This camera seems to see what animation could do and did everything they could to replicate it. This is going to look amazing for so many new movies coming out!
Loved to see this deep dive-thank you! 🙏

Most comprehensive review of this camera I've seen so far. Thank you. It is a serious piece of kit
Honestly the most insane thing about this camera is the fact that it starts at $7,200. I'm in love with DJI

Brilliantly explained, thanks for putting in the context of the technological advancement this represents. Really well done. I was holding out for a C200 Mark II and this is the same money... crazy.
I really like Niko. He seems like such a great dude. Knowledgeable, layedback, calm & funny- you just simply want to be friends with him!
*Laid back
@@TrulyLegitGaming you are the living antonym of that word
man when the music hits and wren gets his solo time. chills brother!!
also the tasteful wreck lol
I have it now and absolutley love it. Drawbacks are the slowmo 50/60frames per second is only 2:39:1 ratio. Great for short or Feature films , but corporate clients or TV don't want that mixed in with 16:9 footage. So either you have to crop in the 2:39:1 footage or do the whole shoot with 2:39:1 aspect ration in mind and put markers on the 16:9 footage for framing.
This camera seems like such a huge step forward for cameras, and for creators like you guys. It gives so much versatility to shooting. I look forward to seeing how things will look going forward.
It's almost like their drones were only a research and financing platform and this is the actual product.
It was always that way. DJI is the brand used in every drone shot for big budget cinema. Their Matrice is used by everyone in the movie industry. Now it's the S1000, which is now being used for emergency services too.
It literally looks like a cyborg, it better be the perfect camera
OK I love dji stuff and I love these guys, they don't often do good with new gear but these guys are miles ahead of the other guys with this review! They should all watch this and learn from it.
I work at a leading rental house as a video technician where my job focuses on video builds and customer outreach to go through gear. I’m pretty pumped to get hands on time with this camera and I know we’ve already got some pre ordered. I’m curious as to the limitations of non DL mount lenses as customers will surely want to use other glass and I’ll be the one testing out the builds for sure. The LiDAR focus system looks sweet as does the steadicam like gimbal. I also hope DJI comes out with some updated DL mount glass and as Niko stated and updates what codecs the camera can shoot in. I’m guessing it won’t be long before I get customers wanting to put Zeiss CP 2/3 lenses on them or Sigma Cine primes. I admire DJI for being innovative, hopefully this is a kick in the pants for the larger camera companies.
It makes a lot of sense that DJI would make a camera like this though. All their drone work gave them so much info on wireless tech and stabilization. So interesting. Great video
This is pretty insane and as someone who sometimes does 1st AC, that LiDAR focusing sounds amazing. Looking at a monitor while the Cam Op slowly starts walking backwards at a different speed than the actor with a 85mm lens on aperture 1.4 is a pain in the ass. And the fact that you get the things in one package is just wonderful......if only I had the money to buy it right now ^^
I really appreciated the thoughtful breakdown you presented on this.
Can we all give a big shoutout to DJI for making an amazing product the first go round! When you give an artist an amazing tool then the art they create will be all that much more amazing. Happy to see a company doing things the right way! ♥️
It's impressive how much dji has grown and evolved in such a relatively short time.
This is a game changer!
also, we need more mocap hoodies please.
Edit : why did I get chosen to be swarmed by bots?
@@Yuna-oi8wb can we report this bot?
@@agusbintangg oh yeah... I just did.
There is just so many of them
This camera looks awesome I've always followed your camera builds and this really does check a lot of boxes
This got me excited seeing this cause I use the cellphone gimbles when I go traveling. I hope that later down the line, DJI would implement the arm for that steady cam look. That would be amazing.
Dude, Wren's sustainability video looked so good and I had a feeling you guys were using something special.
That focus line is absolutely ground breaking.
Looks fantastic they really have listened and brought their innovation together. One other con I foresee, a bit like a drone, if one bit breaks then the whole system is down. Vs with individual parts at least you can swap things out.
Omg, that Lidar focus camera is so simple but so absolutely incredible amazing. I've been tinkering with depth cameras for a couple of years now - but I never even thought of using it for classic filmmaking.
That's insane, huge props to DGI for stepping up the game with an actual new/innovative product, apparently a huge potential to change the industry despite the minor downsides like the RAW codec.
I'm really glad that every time when youtubers I watch, like you, talk about crazy image stabilization, the chicken video made by Destin from SmarterEveryDay pops up :D
It’s insane from where you guys began to this, thanks corridor
They first introduced lidar with the RS2 gimbal and it worked really well there too. This just refined it 100x
This is wild
12:16 okay that shot was almost breathtakingly good
Not almost... It was
12:16 is *amazing*, great job!
This is incredible - I have a dji drone, so cool how technologies from the drones are also influencing handheld professional cameras!
We need more UA-camrs like this with a perfect content!
Keep going!
Camera is cool by the way!!
I'm curious to know the carry weight for the gimble. DJI's lenses are expensive if one had to buy them along with the camera. There are mount adapters, but some lenses weigh a lot.
potato jet threw a sony 16-35mm on there with no problem
I think the biggest advantage of this DJI Ronin 4D cinematic camera system is that it significantly saves human resource expenses, significantly reduces the cost and difficulty of the project, and significantly reduces the time for project preparation and shooting. For example, for a project which used to require four or five persons, with this system, it only takes one or two persons to complete. In terms of long-term operation, the cost of human resources is far more than the cost of camera equipments, so this is the biggest advantage of this system in my opinion.
Thats the magic of technology really, it makes things easier and faster so that you can center on the creativity of your idea instead on how the fuck are you even going to make that work
Looks like a whoooole lot of parts that can break and start acting up..
This is so cool! I have a DJI Osmo 3, and a Ryze Tello (with DJI tech) and love both of them, something like this is definitely a distant goal for me. Thanks for sharing, and geeking out over it with us! 😊👌
All these shots of Wren on a one wheel are amazing, I just have this worry in the back of my mind of Wren hurting himself because his bones are fragile like a baby and then he falls at the end lol
Niko explaining shit are the best corridor videos. Especially when he's super passionate about it.
This is the coolest piece of tech I've ever seen, especially the focus functionality. Just thinking that one day I could be able to buy such thing makes me excited
Full filming production level with this camera. Mindblown!
