If your love and passion for cinematography drive you to purchase a gimbal, prefer the cheaper solution, the RSC2, which with some small compromises in features and ease of use is equally capable and one of the best on the market.
If its use will generate income, choose the RS2 Combo without hesitation... With the technology and capabilities it offers, I can confidently say that it is worth every last euro!

It is made of carbon fiber and includes a multitude of improvements, including better build quality, a color screen with easy use, and new features such as reduced weight and 20% more powerful motors, as well as the innovative addition of the infamous Raven Eye, an image transmission system that allows Active Track 3.0 of any object and transfers the image to the gimbal or even the mobile phone.

The RS2 is a high-tech, quality tool that will stabilize your shots and elevate the creativity of every aspiring amateur and professional.
I should note here that by acquiring it, stable cinematic shots will not automatically come.
It is certain that you will upgrade the quality of your shots, but this will be achieved under certain conditions.
Progressive learning for maneuvers, familiarity with the gimbal's functions, and of course, practical training for proper handling will help with this.

RS2 vs RSC2:
• Carbon Fiber vs Aluminum
• 1.07kg vs 1.22kg
• Payload 4.5 kg vs 3kg
• Detachable battery handle vs standard
• 12hr vs 14hr
• 1.4" color touch screen vs 1" OLED
• More powerful motors
• 919€ vs 648€ (Combo)

If you have decided that cutting-edge technology will better serve your purpose and are torn between the RS2 PRO and the RS2 PRO Combo, of course, prefer the latter, as it includes additional accessories, among others:
• Phone holder
• Focus Motor
• Cold Shoe ¼ - 20 Adapter
• Raven Eye Image Transmitter (Game Changer - image transmission system, object detection, and mobile control)
• Various cables
• Metal tripod
• Briefcase handler
and more, at a more "friendly" price...

What should you pay attention to during the first use?

1) Pay attention to properly balancing the camera on the gimbal the first time, but also every time you change lenses or even add a filter, which will require recalibration and balancing.
2) It is necessary to familiarize yourself with the new interface of the screen and its functions.
3) The use of the Supersmooth option is recommended only when there is a specific need to eliminate imperceptible vibrations, and the use of the special lens strap is recommended.
4) Adjust the dial functions for your convenience.
5) Learn and adjust the gimbal's movements and speeds.
6) Use the Raven Eye and activate active track on the object you want to detect.
I should note here that for it to work properly, sufficient light is needed; otherwise, it will not detect the object, and if you do not use the Raven Eye, I recommend disconnecting it as it drains power from the gimbal's battery.
7) Apply the active track speeds proportionally to the focal length of the lens you are using each time.
8) Great convenience with the quick release plates, with which you can easily detach the camera from the gimbal and use it separately.

To conclude, it is more important, before transitioning to expensive equipment, to develop perception and invest in education about cinematography and photography, as technology constantly evolves and becomes outdated, while knowledge remains forever!

Stay safe and happy shooting!

Former owner of the Ronin s. Now with the Ronin rs2. The top Professional Gimbal-Robot with a carbon fiber construction, integrated tracking focus system via raveneye, "Titan" stabilization, 1.4-inch LCD touch screen. You can do wonders! There is nothing better! The Gimbal is the only way to go. With a few extra euros, it's better to get the pro combo because it includes the wireless Raven Eye system and a motorized focus unit for manual lenses. I am very satisfied!!! It's worth every penny!!!
