Hey Phillip, thank you - that's really helpful. Can you tell me though - am I missing something... When using Sony 'multi', you have no control over focus. You can't even prompt the camera to focus with a half-press? Raveneye also does not change the focus area? Which means you have to set the camera to AFC and wide and hope for the best? is there a better way?

Hi Phil Thx a lot for this helpful tutorial. I‘m working with the a7rii / rsc2 / raven eye. And almost everything rocks....except the bloody sound. When i‘m filming i see the cam get some sound on ch1 an ch2 ...But the sound is not transferred to the app. All sequences are without sound. Which of these 1000 settings do I need to change? On the camera or the app? Thx for helping me🙏🏼

Do you have to use RSS to use Raveneye? I have a camera that doesn't have the "multi" output, but the Raveneye is connected to the gimbal and the HDMI out from the camera is connected to the Raveneye. I can't get this thing to work for the life of me.

I just bought the RS3 Pro and I scoured the earth for solutions to how to get Raven Eye to work with my A7r3 and the consensus from every "professional" in the game was that my camera model is outdated for 2023 and that I should just upgrade to a Sony S3 or a Sony A1... Now just came across this video and it save me THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS!!! What's your patreon???? I need to donate something to your channel!!!

It should work the same way with the Canon. Take a look a the compatibility list in the description and it'll tell you what control cable and hdmi cable to use for your specific camera.

New subscriber your video was helpful, my question is about the focus motor that comes with the raveneye. I cannot set the hard stops for my lens and it pulls the lens physically up when it reaches the end of the range for the lens. Is there a calibration option to set the hard stops that I am missing?

@PhillipSkraba

Hi Joe. So, I have the same problem, and I wanted to do a video on how to setup your follow focus, but not being able to calibrate the front wheel is a pain as like you said it just pulls the lens physically and tries to destroy my camera. Hopefully they'll update this, it's super annoying. With the focus wheel, so that silly contraption that was on the Ronin S, you CAN calibrate a mechanical lens with hard stops, and not only that, you can set A and B stops! With the front wheel this is what DJI write - "The motor does not require calibrating when the front dial is used to control the focus motor." So that's odd, hopefully something we'll see fixed when the 3D focus is finally on sale. If you get to the bottom of this, let me know, if not, I'll drop a video as soon as I get this working. I really appreciate the sub!

Gear Acquisition Syndrome. I like filling my shelves with gear till they buckle under the pressure. Then I buy more shelves. The Sony a7siii and I think the a1 both now have that feature, but to tell you the truth I’ve learnt to live without it.

That RSS port on the RE was messing with me for quite some time. Plumbed the rig as you stated in this video and everything works as promised! Which is a rarity given I'm running a Nikon Z6ii. But I have full exposure control , as well as being able to record through a Ninja V tethered [I have the expansion kit]. Everything is powered through a Smallrig 50Wh battery and I couldn't be happier.

Thanks for making this informative video! I don't know if they fixed the usb-c issue with a firmware update or it's the new camera, but I was able to get Raveneye working WHILE using the USB-C cable. All the parameters can be changed directly from the app, and even use the wheel can be used to adjust focus now, which is very helpful. I am using RSC2 with Sony R7S3, and I think this is something you might want to know and test out! I even checked DJI's website for compatibility with R7S3, and the point that cable 2 cannot be used with Raveneye is stated on the page. So I was actually very confused after getting mine to work, wondering why wouldn't it. I do hope DJI can update their site after this is confirmed.

Hi all !. I'm struggling with my new RSC-2, Raveneye and my NikonZ6 camera. I connected all the cables based on this video and others. The problem I have is that in the shutter parameter of the Ronin app I can only select 'cache'. No way to select shoot nor shoot+cache. And then I found a message saying the 'camera control cable is disconnected' .. which seems to explain why I cannot select the shoot option of the shutter. But the cable is connected ! What I found out is that when I turn the RSC-2 on, I can immediately see the shoot options available and no error message about control cable disconnected. But after 15 seconds, the shoot options become grey and I have the message back about camera control cable disconnected. And this is repeatable. I checked all the cables and the ports where they are connected. All is OK. I also checked the camera parameters about USB parameters ... but did not really find anytthing helpful. Could that be an hardware or software bug between the RSC-2 and my Nikon Z6 ? Anyone having experience with connecting the RSC-2 to a Nikon Z6 and having no problem with the control càble ? Thanks for any help ! Looking forward to getting any advice !

So, you're using the USB-C cable, that's the one you need for the Nikon Z6, and you also need to have live view enabled all the time for this to work.
