DJI’s lenses are decent, and you can use Leica M mount lenses for higher-end productions. The downside of the DJI Ronin 4D is the choice of lenses. The key here is “units of short flange focal distance,” which can limit lens options. The full-frame Zenmuse X9 camera supports interchangeable lens mounts, including DJI’s proprietary DL mount and several short flange focal distance mount units. LiDar Focusing, 4-axis stabilization, and loads of ND filter options are highlights for me. Let’s dial into the features of the DJI Ronin 4D.
Need to shoot a handful of interviews the 4D will make your shoot a little challenging. Shooting Steadicam or gimbal-style shots and need to move the camera well and smooth, then the DJI Ronin 4D is your camera. The uniqueness of the DJI Ronin 4D is the camera’s best asset and what gets in the way. I could count my past projects where the DJI Ronin 4D could have helped to have on hand but now I work in a Corporate Healthcare setting, and we sometimes shoot in-house and occasionally hire outside vendors. Now, I wrote a lower budget commercial because any national brand-sized commercial with a decent budget will either hire a Steadicam operator or a Gimbal operator for a full-size DJI Ronin to hold an ARRI, Red, or Sony. Understand that the DJI Ronin 4D will be one camera of several on hand for a medium to large corporate shoot or documentary style shoot or rented for projects needing its features set on a lower budget commercial. When it comes to the DJI Ronin 4D, it really is all about that z-axis. This wasn’t 6K footage or 4K, but 2K, and I was still impressed, not because of resolution or lens characteristics but because the camera helped me capture a moment usually much more difficult to do well. I sat in wonder at the 2K 120fps footage of my 4-year-old daughter running in the field behind our house. The befuddling nature of the DJI Ronin 4D is at times it giveth beautiful imagery, and other times you set it down to shoot with something else. Other times, I was looking forward to sending the camera back so I could move on to another project. Sometimes, it was long enough for me to wish I could keep the Ronin 4D with me. Just enough time to ramp up my learning curve for an incredible piece of equipment. Nope, it is to review the camera attached to all the DJI Tech and figure out how often the 4D is pulled from the case for the next shoot.ĭJI loaned me the Ronin 4D for about four weeks. Now, this is not a post to poo-poo the DJI Ronin 4D. Except for a handful of sane reviewers, every voice on the internet talked about how wonderful and brilliant the DJI Ronin 4D was and how it would change filmmaking forever. The action is fluid and while there isn’t too much combat, it’s very easy to see that Milonogiannis has a knack for creating kinetic moments that will be worth watching unfold.The DJI Ronin 4D, when DJI announced this new camera, the world of youtube camera experts went berzerk for the peculiar camera. Hana’s tattered clothes may be patchwork stitched together, but they allow her to utilize her agility as part of the graduation ceremony. Kenichi’s samurai armor is just a tad bit too big for him - he’s not entirely ready to take up the legacy. There are various set pieces on the proverbial island and a wealth of detail in the costuming and design of each character. Milonogiannis’ artwork is absolutely gorgeous. However, the narrative and clever dialog aren’t the only stars of the show. Pak sets up this initial conflict barely a quarter into the book before extrapolating to new and exciting heights that you’ll have to read the issue to find out about. Pak wastes absolutely no time introducing the characters and having them compete in order to set up the underlying themes of Ronin Island: the clash of old and new blood, the difficulties of cultural co-evolution, this idea of what is home and what does that home mean to a bunch of refugees. We are quickly introduced to our two young protagonists: Kenichi, legacy member of a royal Japanese lineage, and Hana, the “Korean Girl Who Lives In The Shack By The Beach.” Whereas Hana is a scrappy fighter motivated to upstage the rich kid, Kenichi is an honor-bound stalwart samurai attempting to continue a proud tradition. After a cataclysmic battle, refugees from Japan, China, and Korea took up residency on the Island and exist in a tenuous peace.
Set on “The Island” in the East China Sea, one mile off the coast of Kyushu, resides a very different cultural melting pot. And now, it is my honor to cover an exciting new, original story from Pak: Ronin Island. I’ve extolled the exciting new line up of New Agents of Atlas. Greg Pak is out here doing all of the work when it comes to representation. Writer: Greg Pak / Artist: Giannis Milonogiannis / Boom! Studios Together in Strength
