Ronin 4D Cinema Camera
The DJI 4-Axis Cinematic Imaging System
The DJI Ronin 4D is a powerful solution for professional filmmakers and is the industry's first 4 dimensional cinematic camera system, with active Z-axis stabilisation to eliminate vertical camera shake.
Capture cinema-grade content through a compact combination of:
- Full-frame Zenmuse X9 gimbal camera, with 8K or 6K capabilities;
- 4-axis stabilisation system;
- LiDAR focusing system;
- Unrivalled video transmission and control system.
The DJI Ronin 4D makes cinema-standard production more affordable, cinema cameras more flexible, and cinematic imaging available to a boundless array of filmmakers.
It is available in 8K and 6K combos.

- Lighter, smaller and more compact than other content creation solutions.
Ronin 4D Cinematic Camera System
DJI’s most powerful cinematic imaging platform for professionals.
Powerful Cinematic Imaging System
The Ronin 4D is DJI’s most powerful cinematic imaging platform to date.
- Intelligent Image Processing System: CineCore 3.0 delivers an internal 8K RAW codec with precise colour reproduction and low-latency image processing.
- Full-frame Zenmuse X9 gimbal camera - 8K and 6K versions.
- Zenmuse X9-6K supports up to 6K/60fps and 4K/120fps; Zenmuse X9-8K supports up to 8K/75fps.
- H.264 codec and internally record Apple ProRes and ProRes RAW, for more latitude for editing in post.
- Capture scenes with rich colour grade with dual-native EI of 800/5,000 and more than 14 stops of dynamic range.
- DJI Ronin 4D’s proprietary DJI Cinema Colour System delivers natural skin tone, even in complicated lighting conditions.
- Built-in nine-stop physical ND filters for easy adjustment to drastically changing lighting conditions.
- X9 is equipped with an interchangeable lens mount design allowing connection to DJI’s proprietary DL mount, Leica M mount, and other mounts with short-flange focal distances.
4-Axis Stabilisation System
The DJI Ronin 4D has an innovative industry-first active Z-axis to eliminate vertical camera shake effectively.
DJI Ronin 4D even captures wide sliding shots easily, without the need for a dolly.
Super-smooth content is achieved by an advanced new algorithm that processes inputs from a set of downward ToF sensors, forward and downward dual-visual sensors, built-in IMU, and barometer.
Even with the additional Z-axis, DJI Ronin 4D is lighter and smaller than most cinema cameras mounted on a professional three-axis stabiliser.
Use ActiveTrack Pro to capture complex and, advanced tracking shots easily and efficiently. Track subjects from longer distances while adjusting composition to maintain optimal framing.
LiDAR Focusing System
Achieve a sharper, faster, and more reliable focusing experience with the newly-designed LiDAR Range Finder.
It simultaneously casts more than 43,200 ranging points reaching as far as 10 metres, locating subjects quickly and accurately, even in low-light environments.
DJI Ronin 4D offers three focusing modes to suit the needs of every creator:
- Manual Focus: DJI Ronin 4D provides LiDAR Waveform, an assistive tool that allows cinematographers to locate focus points and pull focus with extreme precision.
- Autofocus: Keeps a sharp focus on the subject in more dynamic and unpredictable situations like documentary filmmaking.
- Automated Manual Focus (AMF): DJI’s unique AMF mode combines the best of both modes to automatically rotate the focus wheel while following the focus point, allowing the operator to intervene manually at any time for an intuitive experience.
O3 Pro Transmission Technology
Using DJI’s new O3 Pro transmission technology, the 4D Video Transmitter outputs a 1080p/60fps feed to remote monitors with a transmission range of up to nearly 20,000 feet.
It includes AES 256-bit encryption to protect the video feed and industry-leading end-to-end low latency for a smooth, real-time monitoring experience.
As well as 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz, O3 Pro supports the DFS frequency band, significantly improving stability and anti-interference performance.
This system also enables multiple receivers with one transmitter and allows users to switch feeds quickly between multiple Ronin 4Ds.
The additional High-Bright Remote Monitor integrates a wireless video receiver into a 1,500-nit, 7-inch monitor. The built-in gyro sensor also turns the monitor into a motion controller for movement-based camera control.
It can also connect to the Ronin 4D Hand Grips, DJI Master Wheels, DJI Force Pro, or the new DJI Three-Channel Follow Focus to modernise coordinated shoots.
When several remote monitors are used in conjunction, each device can playback material separately with independent LUT, loaded without interfering with other monitors.
The monitor’s built-in microSD card slot supports up to 1080p/60fps proxy footage recording.
Storage, Sound Recording, and Battery Life
DJI Ronin 4D offers three storage methods:
- USB SSD: Provides 4K projects with a cost-effective solution.
- CFexpress Type-B Card: Offers compatibility and stability.
- DJI’s Proprietary PROSSD 1TB: Delivers the best performance and highest stability for internal recording at maximum resolution and frame rate.
For sound recording, DJI Ronin 4D has built-in microphones to support 2-channel 24-bit audio.
It also has two 3.5mm jacks on the body and two XLR ports on the Expansion Plate for additional input and output options.
DJI Ronin 4D uses the TB50 Intelligent Battery, offering up to 2.5 hours of shooting time. The battery has auto-heating technology to make it reliable in extreme weather conditions.
Ronin 4D Combos
DJI Ronin 4D is available in 8K and 6K combos.
The 6K version features the Main Body, a Zenmuse X9-6K Gimbal Camera, LiDAR Range Finder, High-Bright Main Monitor, Hand Grips, Top Handle, TB50 Intelligent Battery, and Carrying Case.
The 8K version features the more powerful Zenmuse X9-8K Gimbal Camera and the PROSSD 1TB storage solution.
To utilise Ronin 4D to its full potential, the 4D Video Transmitter, High-Bright Remote Monitor, and DJI PROSSD 1TB are also available separately.
