About this product
Overview
The DJI RS 5 is a handheld stabilizer for mirrorless cameras with a tested payload of 3.0 kg. The gimbal weighs about 1,193 g with its plates. Axis locks engage when you power off or sleep, which speeds up setup and packing. Fine-tuning knobs on each arm help you balance a heavier camera and lens, and a Z-axis indicator gives feedback on your footsteps.
DJI lists about 14 hours of standby on its 2150 mAh battery and about an hour to charge. The box has the BG33 battery grip, upper and lower quick-release plates, a lens-fastening support, a quick-open tripod and a camera control cable. DJI's tracking module and briefcase handle are sold separately or in a combo.

Questions
Phone gimbal or camera gimbal: which one do I need?
A phone gimbal holds a phone. A camera gimbal carries a heavier camera and its lens. Tell us what you shoot with.
Action camera or 360 camera?
An action camera records what is in front of it. A 360 camera records all around you, so you choose the angle later.
Do you set up the camera with me?
Yes. We set it up with you in the store, so it works before you walk out.
