amazing i just got the 6k pro and been looking at how i can move from handheld to gimble and i had no idea i could power the camera with the Ronin S with just 1 cable so thank you for that! I wastying to find out how i could do it with a V mount still attached but this is so much more efficient!

Hi Joseph. Thank you for your video. I have the same camera and a DJI RS2 gimbal. My question is, do you have a link for the cable you use to power the camera from the gimbal ? (I guess it must be some kind of USB to 2-pins blackmagic power connector..) And where do you connect that cable on the gimbal ? Would be great if I can power the cam from the gimbal! Many thanks, with kind regards from The Netherlands 🇳🇱 👍

@@DEFARNE Hey there Arne--glad to meet you and know of other bmpcc6k users. It's my understanding that the DJI RS2 power does not meet the 12v requirements to power the camera from the gimbal. So, the older DJI Ronin S will power the bmpcc6k with this cable (amzn.to/3toubEx) but the newer RS2 will not. (I recently got the RS2 and have the same issue...the cable for the Ronin S is a modified 2 pin for bmpcc power but the RS2 has the usb-c connector.) I've not found a workable solution to power the camera from the RS2 except to power the RS2 from something like a CoreSWX (amzn.to/3E1jexB) and use one of the p-tap to bmpcc power cables (amzn.to/2Vr3KRT). So, all that to say, my only work around is to have the CoreSWX powering the RS2 using a universal mounting plate (amzn.to/38XMWF7). It's that or mounting an NF-P batter & plate on the top of the bmpcc cage to counter-balance & use that as 12v? There *should* be a way to do this safely and not short/under power any of the dji/bmpcc equipment, but I don't know how to do it yet. I'd love to say that a firmware update might do it, but that may be wishful thinking. So, hope that's helpful and glad to connect with you here. All the best to you in the Netherlands!

Seems like the RS 2 can handle the slight drag of the cable fairly well. I’m not sure if the RS three that has recently come out has a higher power voltage or not. I do find it pretty easy to leave the set up with the DJI ronin S instead. However, the pocket 6K Pro has much better battery life and I can’t wait to try that camera out on this set up.

I have actually not used the riser plate, but simply used the mounting plate offset slightly, two holes to the right.

Hey, how long does the ronin s batter power the camera and do you need to have a lpe6 battery in the camera to power it via the ronin or v mount batter?

@JosephMcBrayer

Great questions here Cameron - - I keep an LPE6 battery in the camera at all times so that if I need to hot swap from one power source to another, the camera will not turn off if I need to keep recording. I have an adapter cable from the port on the ronin S that plugs directly into the bmpcc two pin power connector while on the gimbal (i’m not exactly sure how long it will run both the camera and gimbal at full power, but I have used it for 2 to 3 hours and it only knocked down by about 50%!) I have a similar adapter cable that connects to the bmpcc from the core SWX when going handheld or onto the gimbal ring, which is powered by the core swx via a dtap cable to the ronin s universal mount. The core swx will run my handheld rig for 3+ hours and the gimbal ring rig via ronin s universal mount for 2+ hours. That may be overly technical, but I hope it’s at least helpful.

@JosephMcBrayer

Hey Micah - - that’s a good question. Everything I’ve read suggests that the Ronan S might be beeping because one of the Gimbal access motors has too much strain on it. You may have already done this, but the Thing I would recommend doing is to turn the gimbal off or at least put it in sleep mode and balance it by hand first to get everything close to balanced before turning on the motors. I’ve never had it beep at me before, so perhaps the weight distribution is either uneven with the different weight distribution you have going? Or, it may be some other detail that I am missing.
