DJI Ronin 4D 4-Axis Cinema Camera 8K Combo Kit with DL PZ 17-28mm T3.0 ASPH Lens

DJI Ronin 4D 8K Overview

The Ronin 4D 4-Axis Cinema Camera 8K Combo Kit with DL PZ 17-28mm T3.0 ASPH Lens from DJI combines imaging, stabilization, and focusing in a lightweight, uniquely flexible gimbal/camera rig. This 4D X9-8K version pairs the Ronin 4D gimbal with the Zenmuse X9-8K camera, a DJI DL 17-28mm T3.0 lens, a LiDAR range finder, a low-pass filter, and a RAW license that requires activation via DJI; wireless video transmission is available separately. With support for up to 8K60 17:9 video in Apple ProRes RAW, and 8K30 17:9 and 8K75 2.39:1 in ProRes 422 HQ, the X9-8K offers the higher imaging standards required for visual effects, cine-style capture, and broadcasting while reducing your setup time with its all-in-one combination design.

LiDAR Focus Control

• LiDAR (light detection and ranging) system uses up to 43,200 ranging points within a 33' range.

• Excellent focusing performance even in low-light environments.

• Focus pulling can be viewed graphically, thanks to a built-in depth meter.

• Intuitive and highly accurate focusing system.

• Modular LiDAR focusing module attached to the front of the D4 rig.

Autofocus Features

• Maintains focus, even when motion blur is produced by fast-moving subjects.

• Separately available focus motor for use with manual lenses.

• Built-in ND.03 to ND2.7 filters let you easily adjust to quickly changing lighting conditions.

• Especially handy for outdoor shoots with changing cloud cover.

• Motorized filter system.

ActiveTrack Pro
