Flexible and Comprehensive

New Dual-Layered Quick-Release Plate

An upgraded dual-layered quick-release plate features an upper plate with a curved placement guide that prevents the camera from rotating and loosening.
With clear mounting and locking marks, launch and storage efficiency are further enhanced. It also follows the ARCA standard, allowing for convenient switching between tripods. 

Native Vertical Shooting

The RS series has made a breakthrough in native vertical shooting on RS 3 Mini. Switch to vertical instantly without additional accessories. Just mount the standard Quick-Release Plate to the gimbal's vertical arm and film content that's optimized for social media platforms.

Compared to portrait modes on other gimbals, the gimbal rotation angle of RS 3 Mini in Native Vertical mode is greatly expanded. It even offers the same control experience as horizontal mode. It is also easy to film in Upright, Underslung, Flashlight, and other operation modes.

NATO Expansion Port

RS 3 Mini is equipped with a NATO port to support the installation of accessories such as briefcase handles, external fill lights, and monitors, allowing for more configurations and greater flexibility.

Intuitive Operation

Bluetooth Shutter Control

RS 3 Mini comes with the same Bluetooth shutter control that debuted on RS 3 Pro. This function supports mainstream mirrorless camera models and allows RS 3 Mini to automatically reconnect with a camera after the initial pairing. 

After Bluetooth pairing, you can directly control the video recording and photo capture functions of your camera via the record button on the gimbal. When using a Sony camera with a supported digital lens, you can directly control the lens's optical or digital zoom via the front dial, eliminating the need for a camera control cable. ^[2]

Gimbal Mode Switch Button

Press the M button to switch between PF (Pan Follow), PTF (Pan and Tilt Follow), and FPV mode. Photographers can also customize the follow speed and other parameters of RS 3 Mini on the touchscreen, facilitating a smoother and more intuitive shooting experience. 

1.4" Full-Color Touchscreen

RS 3 Mini features a 1.4-inch full-color touchscreen with a new UI. Adjust most functions without the app and access common settings quickly and intuitively. 

Front Dial Focusing

Like the rest of the DJI RS series, RS 3 Mini sports an ergonomic front dial that rotates to adjust the focus, ISO, aperture, shutter, and other parameters. ^[3] Control the movement of the gimbal's three axes with the front dial for a more effective solo-shooting experience.

Shoot for 10-Hours Straight

The integrated battery grip supports up to 10 hours of runtime, providing sufficient power to fully meet the shooting needs of all-day use. ^[4] Recharge RS 3 Mini in as little as 2.5 hours to get back to shooting quickly. You can even use it while charging. ^[5]

Get Inspired

The Ronin app is filled with intelligent features that spark inspiration.

Timelapse

Add a timelapse to any video for an engaging opening or breathtaking transition.

Track

Set the gimbal to move along up to 10 pre-set points for a dynamic video of any scene or environment.

Panorama

Use a panoramic photo to capture more of any landscape and capture the big picture.

DJI Mic for Pro-Level Audio Recording

Combine RS 3 Mini with DJI Mic to effortlessly elevate vlogs with audio that matches higher footage quality. ^[6] The integrated storage design makes DJI Mic ready for use right out of the case. The compact mic can transmit up to 250 m and lasts up to 15 hours with its charging case. The transmitters are lightweight, portable, and equipped with magnetic accessories for concealed wear, allowing you to confidently handle a wide variety of sound recording scenarios.
