DJI RS 5 Combo

Stronger motors, steadier movement

Motor torque increases significantly over the previous generation, which you notice most when accelerating, stopping, or shooting vertically. The 5th-generation stabilisation algorithm smooths out walking and light running without feeling floaty, keeping movement controlled rather than over-corrected. This balance helps footage feel grounded, especially with heavier zooms.

Intelligent tracking from the touchscreen

With the optional tracking module attached, the RS 5 lets you tap a subject directly on the touchscreen and let the gimbal hold the frame. In practice, this is useful when working solo or moving quickly between shots, as the system can reacquire a person if they briefly leave the frame. The working distance of up to 10 metres feels natural for interviews, walk-and-talks, and controlled-action shots.

Faster balancing and setup

Balancing feels predictable thanks to the fine-tuning knobs on each axis. Minor adjustments are easy to make without the camera drifting past centre, and the low-friction axis with Teflon interlayers lets heavier setups settle smoothly. The dual-layer quick-release plates help here too, retaining balance memory when moving between the gimbal and a tripod, so you don't have to start from scratch each time. Once balanced, the system holds its position reliably, reducing the need for repeated adjustments.

For a quick setup, the second-generation automated axis locks engage as soon as the gimbal powers down and release automatically on start-up, making packing, transport, and quick resets smoother.

Vertical shooting without the hassle

Switching from horizontal to vertical shooting is made simple with third-generation native vertical shooting. You loosen a single knob, rotate the plate, and lock it back in place without rebalancing the tilt or pan axes. This simple adjustment makes it practical to move between horizontal and vertical delivery during the same shoot, rather than treating it as a separate setup, for tailoring content to different platforms.

Power, control, and handling

Battery performance has been improved when compared to the RS 4. A full charge takes around an hour with a compatible fast charger, reducing downtime between shoots. The electronic briefcase handle adds single-handed control via a joystick and buttons, making low-angle or close-quarters shots easier to manage. Bluetooth shutter support removes cables for supported cameras, keeping rigs cleaner and quicker to reconfigure.
