Does it work with the “LiDAR Range Finder” or only with the “DJI LiDAR Range Finder for RS3 Pro”? They appear to be two different units…

DJI went from “that drone company” to “the company that got our backs”

Since I do not need the 6 km range, I stay with the Hollyland which is much more cheaper with good latency.

DJI is a very innovative company. I have a few of their products. I have the mic system and use it all time. I have my Mavic air 2 which is "Old" now, but still amazing, I have a Ronin...etc. The Lidar thing is cool, but honestly I shoot with Sony cameras which have amazing AF. Coming from an event shooter/content creator, this just looks totally cumbersome for no reason

That's some neat stuff

Hollywood uses TeraDek because of zero latency. This has a lot. Hollyland’s system is a lot less expensive.

Great video! Awesome to see, that you can use it with equipment of other manufacturers! :)

Amazing content, thanks so much for sharing. Game changer for small teams that's for sure.

I know right, best thing is to rent a gimbal and calibrate and store it and then move on. Until they have a new version which allows for it to be stored on the onboard chip. I think DJI intentionally do not want people to buy the lidar without buy the Gimbals or the 4D, Or transmission unit.

Thanks Sam. Am I missing something though? It's been possible to use the Lidar from the RS3 pro without the gimbal for some time now. Just need to give it enough power from an external battery. Been doing this for a year now, it works great. That said, having also used a PDMovie follow focus for quite a while, I'm looking forward to seeing how well the new Live Air 3 smart works, particularly as it can store 5 lens profiles, while the DJI can only store 3.

Nice bit of kit would love it in the car, down the stables, in the studio or down at the surf rescue club or even up the crane 😂

Testing the distance is one factor, but a good test would be around a large group of people. I livestream a lot of events and the recievers we use are always fine until a big crowd comes in and the mobiles interfere with the signal

DJI, Sony, Sirui, Tamron, Rode, NiSi...SO many companies just absolutely killing the game right now. I don't think we've ever had it this good.

Hi Sam, nice video! I would be interested in the latency times. Do you have any numbers?

DISTANCE IS OK TO HAVE SOMETIMES, BUT THE PENETRATION, AH THE PENETRATION, THAT IS THE BEST!

amazing

i could use lidar...cool

3:59 yes you do if you film with the dji 4d or the Inspire 3 on remote focus

DJI is upping the game for sure. Looks like the LiDar focusing accuracy has improved quite a bit since I first tested it out last summer. What is that small device you are placing underneath the LiDar with all the cables coming of it?

@d_FLDE

7 ай бұрын

I guess you found out already .. if not. That is a cable that makes the lidar stand alone without a rs3 or other gimbal.

The gotcha was you still need the gimbal or their monitor to store the lens profiles. Also the way the autofocus will not ignore things pAssing in front of it or track any subject. Once it does these things I will be interested, otherwise it’s a lot of money for something with limited use. I don’t film myself, but as a videographer and DOP would love a working autofocus for manual lenses.

@tomcattermole1844

Very subjective, the way I see it though is that many AF lenses slap a premium almost the price of the Lidar system on top anyway so hard to say whether it's not worth it.

1:19 keep it frame mate.. it’s a masterpiece

Nice system, I was waiting for such kind of a solution. However I don't like the amount of cables around the camera... I am going to test the PDMovie Live Air 3 Smart, since it is a super compact all in one solution for my RED Komodo.

I like the lidar unit, can it be used without the transmitter? Don't need transmission

i'm speechless

If I’m correct they implemented the functionality for the LiDAR some time ago. You just needed USB C and it would work standalone.

Do you have gimbal/ camera controls via app if you use that transmitter?? Or strictly ronin app only?

But where to buy this magic cable from DJI? it's not available anywhere :(

Does that whole set up work with subject tracking on the gimbal?

Could you test if it's compatible with the raveneye?

You'd think the Lidar system could sort of clip on to a lens, get calibrated to somebody moving back and forward (ie Confirm: In Focus?), get synced with the focus throw, and just be good to go. Or Lidar/autofocus built into lense sets etc. It seems so under-utilised.

Autofocus annoys me, I love the look given by a focus puller. What if you want to rack focus, the timming in switching focus has a wonderful retro look, Autofocus feels like video

They need to change the mounting part because its too high for most of the cases. Question: Can you control lidar thru transmission? OR its focusing only middle of the screen? Does the face tracker works with this?

Awesome video. Waiting do long for Ronin-independent lidar for my Siri lens. this will become a game changer.

A few years ago, at a SONY cinema camera launch, I asked the presenter about the autofocus system. Surprisingly the audience behind me reacted humorously, suggesting that serious cinematographers don't use autofocus. I chuckled to myself and turned back to the audience to point out its value for one-person crews, like in interviews - they went silent! The presenter, unsure, hadn't tested it. In conclusion, I believe autofocus has its place in cinema despite negative perceptions from others - especially those that pretend they have industry experience etc.. if you’re a ‘proper’ creative, you’ll know when not to use it!

Can you still use the dji follow focus handheld without LiDAR . And does LiDAR only work with the dji follow focus ?

Sam, this was a great video :) But OMG holding that clip on mic the WHOLE video was winding me right up haha!! CLIP IT ON MAN!

It would be awesome if DJI put clips on their microphones. Or At least allow you to connect a lapel mic so you don’t have to hold the mic in your hand.

It's great, practical, affordable - but nothing what will change videography, it will it make in some cases easier, but nothing that can be done any other way. Apart from that, handmade or irregularities have their charm and honesty. It also acts mechanically and not organically. If you film alone and have the money, it's a great solution.

Is the lidar device only for center framing? I assume it will only adjust focus for whatever is right down the center of the frame?

ive had my lidar to transmission hub cable on preorder since first announced and still waiting for it to ship

The auto-focus test is looking pretty soft. Calibration issue?

Does DJI make a lav mic that has a built in clip, or even a magent?

So do you have to have the RS3 Pro to calibrate the LiDAR or will it work with the RS3 also?

I'm sure this is a nice device for long range. But if you don't need more than about 60 ft, but I found my simple Raveneye and my iPad mini work extremely well and the OLED display on the iPad mini is better than any of the wireless monitors I've tried, color accurate and bright.

About 9:58 check the Alvin’s Cables 2 in 1 Charging D-tap to NP-F Dummy Battery Coiled Power Cable, it’s a double npf dummy battery that will provide power to your monitor and receiver via npf 👍

Hi Sam. Im new to you channel (just subscribed). BRILL and very informative. A quick question please regarding this new product. I fly drones professionally and im getting more jobs re-major events for crowd observations & monitoring. Whilst flying my drones. Most of the time I do a live feed to the Control Room at the events, and sometimes the signal isn't brilliant and glitches quite a lot, especially at large outdoor concerts (using RTMPO) Can I use this system to link with any control room so they receive a live feed from my drones? Thanks Sam Your new follower. Steve 😁👍🏾

What lens are u using to film this?

Could I use the live video feed from this in a feed to my computer to say, give us a roaming camera for a livestream event?

Solid vid, the DJI stuff looks great. In other news though, I'm thinking you might as well zoom to fill your A-Roll, I found the jump from filled frame 16x9 footage to your letterboxed footage a bit disjointing. I'm in close enjoying all the footage full screen and then I'm swung back out to a really thin frame! Alternatively, make the project a 2:1 ratio, and make everything fit that so then when you watch landscape on a phone it fills the whole phone 👌That then keeps the anamorphic look, but has a consistent fill. Anywho, peace and love ✌

Can the dji transmission high bright monitor connected to the rs3 pro do auto tracking on subjects without the Lidar Range Finder or raveneye?

Sam - Great review, as always. I love the "air trumpet". The DJI Transmission system looks pretty good, and I generally like DJI as a company. The Transmission system has better range than a comparably priced Teradek system, albeit with more latency. I'd have to test both extensively to see which works best with my work flow. The price of the Transmission system is almost affordable for most small crews, but I'd prefer to rent it. DJI has a habit of frequent firmware updates that sometimes work, and sometime fail miserably. I'm glad there is an option for V-mount batteries as DJI batteries have a bad track record of premature death. I tried the Lidar system that shipped with my DJI RS 2. It works OK when a subject was directly centered in the frame, but that's not how I often frame narrative shots or interviews. The early system didn't have a way to slow down the focus speed, and it was often too fast and prone to hunting. I do see a LOT of great uses for Lidar, but it's important to be able to quickly over ride it when needed. FWIW, I see way too many out of focus shots with auto focus cameras to rely on it. Viewers have come to accept it for vlogging and general KZread stuff, but I don't think it's reliable for most narrative work. For solo shooters, or crews without a focus puller, I think Lidar could be a great thing. I'm not stuck in old school ways, but or all around reliability, I've yet to see anything beat a good focus puller.

Latency is EVERYTHING. Range doesn't matter when you can't pull focus. No one serious uses this device.

PLEASE Could you help me with a few questions? Regarding the DJI high bright monitor, can it handle external RAW recording, similar to the Atomos Ninja V with Sony cameras? If I plan on purchasing an additional DJI motor, how many motors can the right 4D handgrip control effectively? the LiDAR, autofocus tool specifically designed for cine lenses! what is its range ? can it handle autofocus to infinity distance Does the left handgrip exclusively control gimbal movement, and does it require the DJI Ronin RavenEye for full functionality? Thanks so much for taking the time!

crazy , i would love to own both things even tough i dont need it.😂😂

Nice, great review.. however many folks are selling there pro gear that's in the film industry. I'd personally start saving on certain things not related to the topic but be prepared as things are getting ready to tumble.

Regarding Lidar, I think the upcoming PDMovie Smart Motor will be a better option for solo shooters.

Hey. You’ll need the LiDAR range finder, cable hub (spider thingy), and either DJI gimbal RS3 pro or the high bright monitor 👍🏻🎥

Is the feed encrypted? That's a huge range to literally broadcast your shoot. Same thing goes for wireless audio. Most video and audio gear heads never think about wireless security as they have little network experience or sensibility. Audio transmitters on all the time can pick up any audio even in the background between shots and clarified with sound processing. Never forget security to protect your content before release.

Can you use zoom lenses?

Would the receiver work for like using on OBS?

It's funny using Tarantino for a joke example that suggests he uses a monitor a lot because he has said that he thinks a director should be sitting next to the camera watching the action because the actors are performing for you, and not watching a monitor… maybe he only says that because he has to squint so much when looking at a monitor.

Just seeing the number of cables from the lidar device gave me a headache. I think that it's better wait for the PDMovie Live Air 3.

love your content. I am genuinely curious about this trend nowadays with creators holding the microphone while delivering information as you do in this video. What is the advantage/reason for doing this versus clipping the microphone on your shirt, or off-camera?

It’s not a style choice for me personally. I lost my magnet clip (found it since) I didn’t have time to set up a boom and I don’t like the sound of it when it’s clipped sometimes so it was quicker to hold.

Can I plug this into the RavenEye and charge it as well? I'm doing active track for keynote speeches for 8 hours straight. Everything else I can power for the full day -not the RavenEye though. Pretty important considering I need that for active track and it runs out of batteries after 4 hours when it's plugged into the Ronin and supposably gets a charge from that. am I missing something? I need more power, Scotty!
