DJI RS 5 is a compact, professional gimbal built for fast-paced, creative shooting. It introduces touchscreen subject tracking with an optional intelligent
tracking module, smoother and more precise balancing via fine-tuning knobs and Teflon layers and intuitive one-handed control with the new electronic
briefcase handle. Powered by stronger motors and DJI’s 5th-Gen stabilization algorithm, RS 5 delivers rock-solid performance for walking, running, and
vertical shots, while supporting up to a 3 kg payload.
The DJI RS 5 features touchscreen subject selection with the new tracking module¹, smooth balancing from fine-tuning knobs and direct
control via the new briefcase handle² all backed by faster charging and extended battery life³
Features
Intelligence Meets Stability
RS Enhanced Intelligent Tracking Module
The module¹ lets you frame and track any subject¹ from the gimbal's touchscreen, keeping it precisely positioned. And when tracking a person, it offers
a range of up to 10 meters and can reacquire the subject if they temporarily leave the frame.
Next-Gen Algorithm, Enhanced Torque
Peak motor torque is up by 50% over the previous model, offering stability in fast-moving scenes. The 5th-Gen RS Stabilisation Algorithm further
enhances stabilisation for walking, running, and vertical shooting, striking an ideal balance between stability and control.
Compact Body With up to 3kg Payload
The gimbal weighs just 1.46 kg with battery grip and quick-release plates and switches to vertical shooting without extra accessories. With a robust 3 kg
6.6 lbs) payload capacity, it can carry mainstream mirrorless camera and lens combinations⁴ with ease.

improvement³
DJI RS BG70 High-Capacity Battery Grip
The new BG70 High-Capacity Battery Grip⁵ can extend RS 5's battery standby time to 30 hours⁶.
New Bluetooth Shutter Support for Panasonic & Fujifilm
In addition to cameras from Sony, Canon, and Nikon, the RS 5's Bluetooth shutter now supports specific Panasonic and Fujifilm cameras⁷, enabling
wireless control of shutter, zoom, and Clear Image Zoom with no cables required.
Z-Axis Indicator
The new Z‑Axis Indicator gives you instant feedback to fine‑tune your footsteps for steadier, more professional shots.
Control in Detail, Freedom in Motion
Smooth & Precise Balancing
Fine-tuning knobs on each axis arm enable quick, precise balancing through a leadscrew mechanism. Combined with Teflon interlayers, RS 5 delivers
smooth and precise balancing even with heavier professional setups.
2nd-Gen Automated Axis Locks
The 2nd-Gen Automated Axis Locks automatically lock the gimbal upon power-off or sleep for easier transitions and storage. They unlock just as quickly
upon power-on, getting you ready to film in an instant for those critical moments.
3rd-Gen Native Vertical Shooting
To switch to vertical shooting, simply loosen and press the single-side knob, remove the gimbal's horizontal plate, rotate it 90°, and then tighten it back
in place⁸ all in just a few seconds.
Dual-Layered Quick-Release Plates
The Arca-Swiss upper plate and Manfrotto lower plate allow quick switching between gimbal and tripod without rebalancing, thanks to position memory.
In addition, the upper plate adds an adjustable guide for secure camera mounting.
Support for DJI Focus Pro Motor
When paired with two Focus Pro Motors⁵, RS 5 allows cinematographers to adjust the lens zoom via the joystick and precisely control the focus via the
dial, facilitating smooth and effortless lens control.
Support for DJI SDR Transmission
Both independent cinematographers and small crews can utilize the DJI SDR Transmission⁵ for high-definition live feeds, remote gimbal and camera
control, Force Mobile, and more.
RSA Communication Port
The RSA port connects to the Electronic Briefcase Handle, RS Tethered Control Handle⁵, and remote-control ring handles⁵. The open RS SDK also
lets third-party developers create custom functions.
Notes
1. Requires the DJI RS Enhanced Intelligent Tracking Module, which is available for separate purchase or with the purchase of the compatible combo. Human tracking is limited to a single subject and is not recommended in scenarios with multiple people, overlapping positions, similar clothing, exaggerated movements, or complex attire. Vehicle tracking is suitable for single-vehicle scenarios where the vehicle body is less than 30% occluded and is not suitable for fast-moving vehicles. Pet tracking is limited to a single pet and is not suitable for pets that are moving quickly or changing direction frequently. If the subject temporarily leaves the frame, intelligent reacquisition within 2 seconds is only supported when tracking a person. Data was measured in a controlled environment. Actual experience may vary depending on the environment, usage, and firmware version.
2. The briefcase handle is available for separate purchase or with the purchase of the compatible combo.
3. Requires a 65W charger supporting PD protocol and DJI RS BG33 Battery Grip. The DJI RS BG33 Battery Grip is not available for purchase in India. Charging speed and battery runtime improvements are based on a comparison with DJI RS 4 using the DJI RS BG21 Battery Grip. Data was measured in a controlled environment. Actual experience may vary. For details, please refer to the product page on the official DJI website.
4. For more details on camera and lens compatibility, please refer to the Ronin Series Compatibility Search page.
5. Sold separately.
6. Measured in a 25° C (77° F) indoor environment with the gimbal balanced in a level and stationary state until the battery level reached 3% (with the battery grip only powering the gimbal).
7. Only available for specific Panasonic and Fujifilm cameras and requires updating to the latest firmware from the camera manufacturer's official website. For more details on camera and lens compatibility, please refer to the Ronin Series Compatibility Search page.
8. No rebalancing is required for the tilt axis (front to back) and the pan axis after switching between horizontal and vertical shooting.
