Product Information
Lightweight Power for Serious Motion
The DJI RS 5 is designed for filmmakers who need dependable stabilization without the bulk. Built around a compact, refined frame, it delivers confident performance for commercial, documentary, and fast-moving creative work. With improved motors, refined balance controls, and a streamlined interface, RS 5 feels responsive from the moment you power it on—ready to move when inspiration hits.
Smarter Tracking, Stronger Stabilization
Advanced subject tracking brings a new level of confidence to your compositions. Using an optional intelligent tracking module, you can select and follow subjects directly from the touchscreen, allowing the gimbal to maintain clean framing even as scenes evolve. Combined with increased motor torque and the latest RS stabilization algorithm, RS 5 stays smooth through walking shots, quick direction changes, and vertical movement while maintaining natural camera motion.

Compact Build, Serious Payload
Despite its lightweight design, RS 5 comfortably supports popular mirrorless camera and lens setups up to 6.6 lbs. The balanced form factor makes it easy to operate for extended sessions, while native vertical shooting lets you rotate to portrait orientation in seconds—no extra accessories or complicated rebalancing required.
Control Designed Around the Operator
Every adjustment feels deliberate and precise. Fine-tuning knobs on each axis allow for accurate balancing, enhanced by smooth interlayers that make even heavier setups easier to dial in. Automated axis locks secure the gimbal instantly when powered down, then release just as quickly when you’re ready to shoot, making transitions and transport effortless.

Creative Angles, Extended Runtime
An optional electronic briefcase handle opens up new low-angle and handheld perspectives while keeping gimbal and camera controls within reach. Power management is equally refined, with fast charging that brings the battery to full in about an hour and extended runtime that supports long shooting days. Optional high-capacity battery grips can push standby time even further for demanding productions.
Professional Expansion and Wireless Control
RS 5 integrates seamlessly into advanced workflows, supporting wireless camera control for select systems and compatibility with focus motors, video transmission, and remote handles. Dedicated communication ports and an open SDK allow filmmakers to customize control setups and expand functionality as their projects grow.
