This is by far the most well explained DJI FOCUS PRO video I’ve seen online. Thank you for the explanation.
Awesome, and I thought I was going to deep on some of it. Glad it’s useful
That is the tool I was waiting for by DJI. The gimbal is great, but not always needed/useful. And to be honest, hiring an AC or manual focusing myself is not always possible either. So this is really a gamechanger. A big step forward from the janky solutions which were possible put not really practical. Thank you for the great deep dive.
Pro video for pro users. Great stuff!
Hey Chris. Great video - Questions for you.
1. Since the DJI bracket isn't available to the public yet, can I use the DJI transmission without it, to get the focus peaking overlay?
2. How do you set up lenses with only fiz hand unit and lidar and Ronin R2?
3. Can you use lidar with ronin r2?
Thanks!
Great tutorial and thank you for sharing! Is it possible to use DJI Focus Pro on lenses with AF? Sometimes the AF in camera is thrown off and I have to refocus. Can the AF system in cam be turned off to use the lidar in Focus Pro? I have Sony a7s3. Hope this isn't a silly question
Sure thing, the LiDAR on the RS3 can totally work with the Sony A7S3. The Focus Pro is like its own separate lidar unit, so yeah, it can definitely be used with the A7S3, no problem.
What about start and stop ?
Well done presentation, Chris!
Grazie Chris
Great Work
Thanks for the run-through Chris! Good job! 👍🏾🙏🏾 🏴🇸🇪🇹🇹
Thanks a lot Chris. I’ve finally got my full kit :) however I can’t find the DJI Power Hub 😐 can you please share a link! Thanks again! Really appreciate it 🙏🏽
Nice tutorial! I ordered the Hight Bright Monitor and The Focus Motor All in one combo but the T bracket monitor mount is not included and it’s not on DJI website, where did you get yours?
good question, anybody knows??
So far as I can tell, its not available separately. The previous focus control seemed to have it included, & i’d guess he reused that for this video. Unclear.
@@nate6740 I contacted DJI and they did a special order for one. Three-Channel Follow Focus Monitor Rotating Bracket is the correct name for it.
Great video! My only remaining doubt is if you can use the focus pro hand unit with like a Small HD monitor or you need to use theirs? I already own a small hd and would love to just get the hand unit, LiDAR and motors but not sure if that’s possible.
Hi, thank you for contents, Love from japan. i am looking for the T-bracket that connects High-Bright Monitor & Hand Grip Unit, I looked everywhere on the internet, but couldn't find one, can you kindly let me know where did you get it?
Where can you buy the high bright to hand unit mount separately?
when you use a zoom lens, do you have to set different focal lengths as presets or set the preset to the widest setting? I have a dzofilm 20-70mm mft.
Finally got mine. Still working to set it up though. Am I able to change the AF modes if I use it without the handle? (Since the handle has the screen on it)
Which mode will it be by default ?
Thank you Chris! Please, what is name of the DJI Power cable hub? I can't find it.
Did you ever figure this out? I can't find it and don't know what kit it comes with??
@@thehallermans Unfortunately not. I still have the old HUB, but that is certainly something else.
@@perplexer731I actually got a hold of DJI and they said this hub is not released yet but will be. They are not sure when but said when it’s released it will be listed in the accessory section of the focus pro on the website. So there’s hope
where can you buy the hub cable? link?
what monitor holder mount is that? Thx
great video! is it possible to use the Creator Combo Focus Pro handgrip as joystick handle on the RS3 Pro?
I don’t believe so, maybe with long enough usb c cables you could
@@chrisherr Thx for the reply :)
Hey, couldn't make it out of your video, but does the FIZ unit have hard stops?
is it possible to use it on a "non dji " gimbal like movi pro?
Sweet Jebus. So is the only thing this is missing vs. a Preston or Hi-5 system the camera control aspects? The lidar and autofocus implementation with force feedback seems far superior to what they are doing...
Yeah and I’m sure there’s a 3rd party way to add run stop. Even if it were a separate module.
does this work with RS4 as well as RS4 pro? the way DJI marketed the RS4 and RS4 pro, it was super confusing whether or not this focus pro would work with the RS4
23:20 Why didnt you pu the lidar underneath the lens? There were rails to?
Thanks for video, is there no way to grab the zoom function while focusing on the hand grip? only one motor at a time?
You can let the autofocus do focus while you zoom
Great video tutorial. Is that a new transmission cable hub? It doesn’t look like the one they are selling on their website.
The cable hub isn't out yet unfortunately and when I asked they couldn't give me an exact timeline. But it'll be available soon hopefully.
Amazing Video Chris, thanks so much! Even if I calibrate and set all the distances, the lens doesn’t focus closer than 1 meter. As soon as the subject comes too close, it just does weird things… have you had the same issue?
Try going to the range that it won’t focus on and adjust your installation distance. I found that I can sort of fine tune the calibration that way. Just adjust the distance until their eyes are in focus while it’s tracking someone’s face.
@@chrisherr thanks for the quick supply and the help. I will try to adjust the installation distance. Maybe it was also because my Lidar was too far in front of my lens... Thank you!
@@julianbogner7235 Id say keep the lidar behind the front of the lens and as close to the barrel as possible, otherwise your object will go out of the frame of the lidar very quickly, and the angle from the lidar to the subject gets weird and hard for it to calculate.
Can I use more additional calibration points? Lens helicoids behave quite differently and I don’t trust the interpolation for such huge distance changes. Also, will there be pre-marked rings that lens map any lens to that?
At this point it’s just the two points, I agree they need to add some more data points in there. And as for the rings it’s not like the Preston, you just have to mark up your own. Definitely a lot to add for V2 of this system to get to that pro level.
@@chrisherr hopefully a firmware update could do it.
Dear Sir they way you explained everything in this video wow fantastic no one can go wrong thank you very much for fantastic video
i got one question what is name of Power cable hub where from i can buy it i can’t find it
Did you ever figure this out?
again, anybody knows?
@@rogervilavidal DJI Said it hasn't been released yet and won't give a timeline. But it will be released eventually...
Hey, question about Alexa 35 build. What about start/stop? Can you connect it to the camera somehow so you'll be alble to start recording from the knob controller?
As of now it's only bluetooth. I'm thinking someone will eventually make an adapter that will work with normal cameras.
I wish we could have joined forces!
Next time! Let’s link up
Hey Chris, where do you get that new "Hub Cable" that powers the Lidar, transmission, and interconnects? Thanks!!
DJI is saying it’s not available yet, and I wasn’t able to get an estimate of when it will be available unfortunately
Thanks a lot Chris!
Is it possible to calibrate lenses without hardstops? I only have Sony GM lenses that I want to use the hand unit with it if the autofocus on the Camera gets problems.
I want to say theres a way to manually calibrate but I'm not 100% sure
@@chrisherr That would be a cool video idea ;)
Great video. 3 questions
1. When are these actually shipping?
2. Does the focus handle Bluetooth work with the Komodo-X for run/stop recording?
3. Can you run focus and zoom motors off the focus handle and keep the wheel to zoom and leave the lidar in AF at the same time?
Thanks!
1. April 22nd is the estimate 2. I don’t think it will work with komodo but I haven’t tested that. Worth trying. I’ll do it in a follow up video. 3. Yes, you can use autofocus while having manual zoom control, I do that in my other video with an Angineux 15-45 about the RS4 pro and focus pro.
@@chrisherr thanks Chris. Would really love to know if it works with the Komodo. I have the focus pro kit on pre-order. Excited.
@@chrisherr It says it can connect the cameras via Bluetooth or wifi.I know Red has very good wifi on the latest gen of cameras.
How does the moto keep up with the larger zoom lens you used at the end?
They’re very close to the speed and torque of the motors were used to. It’s impressive. I’ll be doing a follow up video putting them on a 12:1 to see how they keep up compared to Preston and Heden motors
does the 160m range extend when using the video transmission with the fiz controller + monitor?
Unfortunately not, based on conversations with DJI.
@@chrisherr Thanks. Thats a bummer. Would be amazing if the range gets extended to the same amount as the video transmission can do. Isn't it doing this when using this setup with the inspire 3 and RX Monitor?
how strong are the motors? would they be safe on leica r's?
You can reduce the torque for more fragile lenses
you forgot to put the Mondo ties in the description
Oops! Thanks for noticing that
How do I explain to my wife that this is autofocus for cinema lenses that are purposely designed for manual focusing. Using it on an FX3 that has great autofocus, does not help. She said.. but why? hilarious I felt a bit like that king suit story
Interesting that you have to “trick” it into using non-DJI cable extensions, rather than just buying any USB-C cable. Would’ve highly preferred LEMO like the rest of this market segment seems to use.
The setup with the Komodo seems extremely long and cumbersome, DJI can still improve this product a lot. Thanks for your demonstration.
DJI is doing better and better. Such features are like (or in some cases better than) much much more expensive systems.
I just wishes that one day they could understand that usb-c is NOT a professional or reliable connector and you can't have such things on set. A little bump or a little pressure and the connector breaks, goodbye focus pro!
The standard is Lemo and I really think they should use that.
For those saying Lemo would make the cost higher: wrong! Chinese lemo copies are extremely cheap and reliable. I use them since years, without a problem.
