Introduction / Package & Instruction Sheet
The DJI Ronin is the culmination of years of stabilization experience built into our most advanced
camera stabilization platform to date. The technology built into the DJI Ronin allows a broad spectrum
of cameras varying in size and weight to be mounted for class leading stabilization. Weâve put years of
passion and excitement into the Ronin, bringing world-class movement translation and stability to the
professional cinematographerâs market.
A brushless gimbal stabilization system is not simply three brushless motors moving on three axes.
The motors work with position feedback and the IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) to communicate with
our custom 32-bit processor, which processes movement calculations in milliseconds. This equates
to control and stability accuracy down to 0.02 degrees of translated movement, meaning your images
are going to be perfectly still in all three axes of movement. There are three operation modes in the
Ronin: underslung mode, upright mode and briefcase mode.

Smart Battery Installation
1. Loosen the thumb screws on either side of the battery. Slide the battery directly into the gimbal and
then slide down. Be sure the batteryâs thumb screws go down into their locating slots making full
contact with the gimbalâs electrical leads.
2. Tighten the thumb screws on the battery to lock it in place.
Getting Started
Make sure the battery is powered off during the installation.
An incorrectly installed battery may lead to (1) Poor battery connection, or (2) Unavailable
battery information.
Mounting the Camera
The Ronin uses an adjustable camera mounting plate to allow you to easily balance, install and
remove your camera. The Ronin has been tested with the following types of cameras. Other cameras
similar in size and weight may also work.
Black Magic Cinema Camera
Canon 6D
Nikon D800
Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera
Canon 7D
Panasonic GH3
Canon 1Dc
Canon C100
Panasonic GH4
Canon 5DMKII
Canon C300
RED Epic/Scarlet
Canon 5DMKIII
Canon C500
Sony NEX7
Camera Size Requirements: the maximum depth from the center of gravity on the camera
base plate is 140mm; the maximum height measured from the top of the camera base plate
is 225mm; and the maximum width is 195mm.
To avoid obstructing camera movement, the use of soft connection cables is recommended.
1. Attach the camera mounting plate to your camera using the provided screws. Choose the correct
1/4" or 3/8" screws. Some cameras have two tripod mounting holes. Itâs best to secure the camera
as tightly as possible. If two mounting holes are available on your camera, then use both mounting

2. Install the extension rod holder and lens support. Gently push up to apply a little pressure to the
lens, then tighten the thumbscrew.

The lens support can be installed either facing outward or inward to accommodate different
lens types.
Ensure alignment of the camera plate and then tighten the screw prior to tightening the lens
support.
3. If using follow focus or other accessories, insert the extension rod into the extension rod holder and

4. With the gimbal on the tuning stand facing outward, insert the camera until the safety lock is
engaged. Make sure the gimbal is not turned on when balancing the camera.
5. Tighten the camera base side clamp. You can adjust the tightness of the side clamp with the M3
allen wrench.

Getting Started
Why do you need to use a lens support?
Certain cameras have a very tight lens securing system, and some cameras like the Canon
5D MKII and MKIII have very loose lens securing systems. The Ronin balances the camera as
one solid unit. If the mounted camera has a loose camera securing system, the lens support
must be used. This is because if a loose connection between the lens and the camera body
is apparent, vibrations could travel through to the camera but not directly to the lens, resulting
in the two masses shaking at different frequencies. The resulting oscillation will translate to the
