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; wireless video transmission is available separately. With support for up to 8K 60 fps 17:9 video in Apple ProRes Raw, and 8K 30 fps 17:9 and 8K 75 fps 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.
Raw License Key and PROSSD 1TB
The Zenmuse X9-8K supports up to 8K video capture and includes both a raw license key, and the DJI PROSSD 1TB drive, DJI PROSSD mount, and USB-C high-speed data cable required for raw recording.
