DJI RS3 MINI Review By Cytech Digitals in Kenya
DJI RS 3 Mini Gimbal adopts an innovative redesign with a more petite build, integrated battery, and native vertical shooting capability. The compact and portable body easily fits into a shoulder bag, allowing you to travel light. When in use, the RS 3 Mini is about half the size of the RS 3 Pro, making it more convenient for long-duration use.
Weighing only 795g in Portrait mode, RS 3 Mini is approximately 50% lighter than RS 3 Pro and 40% lighter than RS 3. It weighs only 850g when shooting with the horizontal plate. A concentrated center of balance also provides a more stable and ergonomic hand-held experience.
It has a payload capacity of up to 2kg, making it best-in-category at its weight. This lets it easily handle larger setups like a Sony A7S3 + 24-70mm F2.8 GM lens. The device supports mainstream full-frame or APS-C mirrorless cameras, enabling various camera and lens combinations. With high-torque motors, the RS 3 Mini can retain stable shooting when zooming to max focal lengths on most lenses without rebalancing.
