The DJI RS 3 Gimbal Stabilizer is DJI’s most refined 3-axis stabilizer, built for photographers and videographers who demand professional-grade smoothness in a compact, lightweight form. Weighing just 2.8 lb yet supporting a 6.6 lb payload, the RS 3 handles rigs like the Sony a7S III or Canon R5 with a 24-70mm zoom lens effortlessly, while its third-generation RS stabilization algorithm delivers 20% greater stability than its predecessor.
Equipped with a vivid 1.8″ full-color OLED touchscreen, automated axis locks for a 2-second ready time, Dual-Mode Bluetooth wireless shutter control, and up to 12 hours of operation with PD fast charging, the DJI RS 3 is engineered to keep up with even the most demanding shoots — from run-and-gun documentary work to creative cinematic time tunnels.
Key features
- Ultra-Lightweight yet Powerful: At just 2.8 lb with a 6.6 lb payload capacity, the RS 3 supports full-frame mirrorless cameras like the Sony a7S III and Canon R5 with a 24-70mm lens without weighing you down on long shoots.
- 20% Enhanced Stabilization: The third-generation RS algorithm significantly outperforms the RSC 2, delivering silky-smooth footage during fast movement, low-angle shots, and position changes — with SuperSmooth mode adding extra motor torque for 100mm-equivalent focal lengths.
- Intuitive 1.8″ OLED Touchscreen: The full-color touchscreen is 80% larger than the RSC 2’s display, offering direct access to Ronin app settings and a redesigned UI for fast, precise on-gimbal control.
- Instant Setup with Automated Axis Locks: Press and hold the power button and the gimbal expands and unlocks automatically — ready to shoot in just two seconds, and locking itself securely with a single press when done.
- Wireless Shutter & Remote Monitoring: Dual-Mode Bluetooth enables cable-free camera control with automatic reconnection, while the optional Ronin Image Transmitter streams 1080p30 HD live video to your smartphone at up to 656 ft with only 60 ms latency.
- All-Day Operation with Fast Charging: A 12-hour battery life combined with PD fast charging means the RS 3 is always ready for full-day productions, whether on a film set or out in the field.
