Would you get a 4D? or rent it for certain projects?
Great review Mark 👏🏼 I think it would be awesome to use this on certain projects. I’m interested to know if you used it in the locked axis function to get the handheld look? Was it jittery 🤔
i'd love to try one. I'm also fairly convinced that the new dji Inspire series drone (if it ever comes) will incorporate the Z axis and use the same sensor. Otherwise, this mounted inverted on a M600 or something similar would do some amazing things.
@@benbeale9457 I never used it locked off, I would like to, it's a good question!
@@markbone maybe the best of both 💪🏽
Am I missing something? A quick search for this product shows the price to be around 7K in USD.
5 am. Insomnia. Ok, let’s watch some Mark Bone videos, cause I freaking love filmmaking. ✌️
equipment from another planet. much like you, I rarely use a gimbal because I never have time to balance it. 4d it completely solves this problem.🥰
For gimbal noobs like me it sure does!!
The only thing now we need is NETFLIX to put this on their APPROVED cam list & EVERY serious film maker who’s ever wanted to get to streaming will do so. This TOOL is as they say a paradigm shift in the industry. It’s not a joke… it’s a DREAM come true for film makers who’ve been waiting for ONE ECO system. An all in one camera that does it all. 🎥💪🏼💪🏼🎥
Yeah I am hoping they approve it!!
Lol wtf are you talking about, a Netflix production can just hire a steadycam operator with an Alexa, why should they settle for this toy?
The Ronin 4D and its engineering is so beautiful, it makes me want to find stories to tell. 😁
I bought this camera a couple days ago. Very excited for it to arrive. I ride an electric unicycle and shoot photography at the same time. This will allow me to up my game into the video world without it being all jittery and hard to watch but still having that professional cinematic look I really want. Not just the insta360 footage that everyone has.
Wow! that is some amazing footage it's so smooth I love it!!!! I can't justify the price though.
Mark, you have my favorite channel on UA-cam right now, thank you!
Ahhh thanks! Appreciate it!!! Glad you like the content
Thanks Mark, I feel much better today I thought that I was the only one to lose 30 minutes trying to get stabilization in my gimbal... and not getting It...
lol, that's me, always, I SUCK AT IT
Thanks for the review. Do you have to use their memory card? Or does it come with the package?
hi Mark, does it come with any lens? what is the mount.. can i use EF canon lenses? thanks!!
Dang, I just got a love of handheld thanks to your vids lol. 4D looks great tho..
(Please dont hate on my comment. I love DJI products, have so many from Ronin M/MX Ronin 2, several different drones and more... I just want to be honest from what I found. Some are personal issues and not so much a problem)
As a user of the Ronin4D... my thoughts (some personal thoughts, some not) its not matter of debate, we all use the camera for different reason. Just sharing. We understand its a new camera but honestly don't sell it unless its not ready. We understand bugs will happen and it wont be 100% but A LOT of things still need to be done. This is more of a problem/request list. We do know some updates are coming for Q3 but wont be holding our breath.
I have found many issues with the system and for some reason these people are not sharing this information.
-Adapt native iso values to the noise behavior
-Delete individual clips in the camera
-6k full frame 50/60fps incl lidar
-Custom key commands
-4k 100/120fps full frame without noise
-Timelapse
-Hyperlapse
-Waypoints
-higher frame rates without slow motion preview in the camera
-customize buttons
-being able to quickly change from full frame to super35 with a customize button so we dont need the menu
-ability to punch in to check focus without having to change settings from focus peaking to punching it. Basically, you can keep focus peaking on and set a custom button to punch in to double check focus but also have the ability to turn off focus peaking dust.
-Mark listed the issue with going into auto focus and manual, where it skips. It would be nice to have it just stay where focus is when turning it on or off.
-Lens choice suck even with E mount. Let me explain.... lets say I need a wide interior car shot... I'll use the Sony 14mm 1.8 GM lens. Beautiful lens, works great but lets say I needed a 50mm GM lens... now I have to bolt a weight/balance on the back of the camera for a simple lens swap... rebalance, etc. I guess my point is... you have choices, yes but its not a simple as you hope to switch back and forth or run some higher end cinema glass. Very limited due to the cage size and weight.
I really want to love the camera but it fights me ( and many others, go join the DJI Ronin4D groups on FB) every day. It is for sure a LOVE and HATE relationship because ideally this camera is a game changer for solo shooters.
Love your channel... stuff/gear is not 2nd place, not even 3rd. But when innovative gear changes the creative possibilities we have... that's worth talking about stuff.
Thanks Herman. The gear is just a tool to tell the story. Where I find many channels make the gear the story 😂
did you need to hold it over the road to get the vertical stabilisation? Or would it have worked holding it inside the car. I'm wondering if it will work on a boat for instance.
I love the innovation and targeting filmmakers...
Hey Mark, if you only had to choose one and the one you are gonna chose will be your forever camera would you choose SONY FX6 or Ronin 4D?
What codec did you shoot in? Was this in ProResRaw or 422?
I think it’s great for productions that are smaller and don’t quite warrant a true steadicam.
That being said, I love the movi gimbal, you can buy one for $4,000 used. You can balance lots of common lens and camera combinations that directors and producers already love. That I’ve found to be a great middle ground.
I would love to own one of these for travel, documentary, and event work in addition to the movi.
Hi, please tell me why the SD slot on the remote monitor
Would you recommend for quality vlogs?
What can I do for audio straight to camera if I want to shoot a movie with dialogue….. xlr mics
How is it for sit down interviews and tripod work?
What would be great in the future is add digital focus breathing compensation for most popular lens like GM for SONY
Did you get it?
And is it still worth it?
Or is money better spend on fx3?
Awesome final image
Yeah I thought so too!
The Aladdin new world part made me laugh. Looks like a solid camera. Dji are on the front of so many great products.
Yeah they’re tech is leaps and bounds in the future
Great video ,where can get some lut for my roni 4d ,l mean preview the videos recorded in the log with a lut to show a client,l was already trying with somthing but it was not working ,l think that maybe are not compatible
I’ve been using my LUTS on it and just adjusting the intensity and exposure settings
random question but why does it always seem when people use professional grade camera system that the footage looks dark...is it because people are used to iphone's oversaturated look? is it because of shooting in raw?
Great bit of kit. Glad dji took the risk to jump into the cinema camera space. I am sure this is the first of many
Yeah, excited to see what their R&D will come up with next! they're tech is insane
@@markbone as long as politics stays out of it. 😀
Rumored integration coming with Inspire 3.
£5,659 for the 6K version. If they could sell a 4K version for £3500 thats something I could afford and would buy. Thanks for the review Mark. 👍
That would be amazing if they did, but they are marketing as a proper cine cam
@@dr.revenue3636 you can see the mid market gap tho.
@@markshirley01 Yeah definitely, but I also think they offer so many great gimbal products for those who thread the line between prosumer and cinema. This kind of takes it past that line into cinema. Kind of like how they have prosumer and cinema capable drone products too!
focus on tory telling....
Thanks Mark it is so refreshing to see it from your point of view
If I'm an aod student from module 1, do I have to purchase module 2 or is it free/discounted?
Module 2 is a separate purchase. You will receive an email with the early bird discount for the first 48hrs on March 7th. Module 2 is an additional 50+ videos and 17+hrs of new content :)
I wish it had an EF mount, but maybe those lenses are too big?
U can still use your Sony luts in davinchi, just change the colour space transform to slog 3 and sgamma cine 3. U can probably make a lut that changes the DJI log fotage to Sony slog 3 if U want
yeah, messing around with the color space in davinci can change the colors a lot!!
I've never personally had those issues with time consuming gimbal balancing, the RS2 I use has clear metrics along their arms so as long as you take note of where each individual lens and camera / filter combo sits ahead of time, there's no real reason why you should have to fight with it each time you set it up on set.
Come balance my gimbals for me
I would but I'm too busy assistant directing here in Newfoundland! The province is about to have its busiest year in film and television in its history, if you find yourself on the east coast hit me up! I'd love to shoot some video and know all the best spots.
this is 8k or 6k vesion?
I’m hoping it’s not a flop, it’s my dream camera haha!
its pretty nuts!!!
@@markbone you liking it speaks volumes because I know how much you like hand held. I really like your take on the camera, one thing I commonly do is constantly switch from auto focus to manual and that little glitch could ruin a shot.
Either way I love your enthusiasm, so now I just gotta get some work and justify this to my wife haha.
Congrats you are an official DJI fanboy.... weeeee!!!
Can't see that yoke ever changing due to the whole system's balancing technology.
Would love to see something like this but for us poor people. Smaller, maybe Apsc, and there is a bunch of specs that Dji could scale down.
I’m sure it’ll come in the future
@@markbone 🤔.. wink, wink?
If i lived in north america and were into filming? Hell yeah! There you get 15 usd per hour , here i get 15 usd per day!
Honestly for 6,000 dollars I find it worth it, maybe not for every shoot but it sure looks like a way simpler method to do gimbal work.
Yooo i see this guy running all the time.... he's a savage lol
Clear Sky is a boss at long distance. Incredible dude also. We’re honoured to be shooting his story!
the One thousandth like let's go, baby🔥
This camera is probably the best on the market. However I think they priced out of the mid professional filmmaker. They needed to start out somewhere in the middle.
a 4k option for a little less would have been incredible!
£5,659 for the 6K version. I actually think its a bargain. This would be a dream camera for me.
@@EdwardWischer Im sure they'll produce one. This is their top end spec version. Im sure they would want the mid market.
why would people doubt this camera?
I would get it
me too
I definitely would, just need 12500$ more.
😂😂😂
👍🏾🙏🏾
👌🏻
No. The answer is no.
Botta Bing botta boom, I here all week!
0:21 Gerald Undone? Yeah he would be proud of that sort of test seeing how he makes up all his tests, if you can call them tests. Good job on the feedback here. Looking forward to your next film.
I dont get it... Everything on an DJI RS2 is great... Eazzy to balance and handle. I can zoom from 24-70 on that without rebalancing its great
I want a RS2 - but every person like you who says its easy to balance you get someone who says it a pain. So as potential purchase your kind of guessing if its going to work for you.
If this video was a pitch on why this is the camera of the future, at 7:04 I'm SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!
What about the lenses thoe 👁👁🤔🤔
what about them?
@@markbone will it balance if lenses are to big?
Put that thing to a gimbal!
😂
Can't you add your luts to this footage and just lower the intensity to like 30% ?
or even over expose the footage first and then add the luts, seems like it was just a bit too dark and to punchy
Both could perhaps solve this issue
Im'a gonna buy it and if anyone reading this doesnt' but it then your basic brah
BIG OL BASIC B's
Dude, don't run with your hands in your pockets 😂
lol, winter running
No more prores supports 😭
"I'm hired" hahaha
hahaha! Landon is our next cam Op
*Dude, great camera work, but your footage looks really under-exposed, and your color grade looks anemic.*
D J I 👀😂😂😂😂 J not G 😁
Lol, that’s my accent 😂
@@markbone 😁😂👌🏻
Bruh I love you but it's not DGI, eh
canadian accents eh?
@@markbone a reply from the man himself! I'm glad. You like the camera, it's nice to see you passionate about something.
Thumbnail for playback 😂 ridiculous…
camera person?? stop it..
