@richard-sim 3 жыл бұрын

Hey, just a couple of radio-related tips from an electronics engineer. 1) The dual antennas should be perpendicular to eachother for maximum effectiveness. Antennas are polarized, not unlike sunlight (think polarizer filters!), so having the antennas at 90 degrees to eachother means that when one antenna is picking up a weak signal the other will be picking up a strong signal, and vice versa. 2) The suggestion to turn off Bluetooth is because WiFi and Bluetooth are both 2.4GHz and use the SAME antenna in your phone. This is actually impossible to do, so what it means is that your phone is having to constantly toggle between using that antenna for Bluetooth and WiFi, which is incredibly unreliable (especially on Android phones, some more than others). Turning off Bluetooth for just one app like you suggest doing in the video has no effect on this at all (it's essentially just a privacy setting) - you must turn Bluetooth off for the entire phone.

@keith-knittel 3 жыл бұрын

Hey there Richard, thank you for a more in-depth response! I really wonder about the bluetooth setting for just the Ronin app or just turning off bluetooth in general - it does seem to make a difference on my iPhone. I understand from a technical standpoint that it might not make sense but I wonder if apple is doing something tricky to actually shut off bluetooth? Or if its not "actually" shutting it off, but denying permissions to single apps? This is above my pay grade but thanks for bringing that up! I love knowing things like this! Thanks for the great insight and watching

@richard-sim 3 жыл бұрын

@@keith-knittel My guess would be that when BT is left enabled for the app, that the app tries to connect to the gimbal automatically or at least tells iOS that it may want to use BT, and that causes the difference you see. I'm pretty sure that even with BT disabled for the app, if you had another app in the background using BT or were using BT headphones (which is possible as BT is still enabled on the phone) that you'd see the same or worse degredation. It's hard to say for sure as it's all behind-the-scenes stuff, and Apple does change the behaviour quite frequently between iOS versions as it can have a large impact on battery life. If I get a RS2+RavenEye, I'll have to do some testing!

Honestly that’s the best laid out tutorial video I’ve seen for Raven Eye. You are so correct that information is thin and anyone else doing a tutorial has left out important information and steps. Congrats on doing this very well. One question, I have Sony cameras, too, but always use the multi cable for control and not USB C. If you buy a Ronin S control cable for Sony from DJI, for example, it comes with the micro USB for multi. It’s working for me with multi input on RS 2. I’ll experiment and try the USB C to see what happens and let you know.

@javajack-1 3 жыл бұрын

Okay Keith, just tried replacing the USB micro or mini into the camera with USB C and I lost all control. I’m using a new a7siii and tried your tip of controlling with PC and not mass storage, but all I got was image edge coming up on the monitor with a choice of MTP or USB. I couldn’t get anything to work and eventually went back to the multi plug in and everything was fine again. I know my A73 and A7R3 also work with the multi input for record start, etc. I don’t get ISO, shutter speed and aperture in Ravens eye in the DJI app. Are you getting this additional control?

@keith-knittel 3 жыл бұрын

Hey there Jack - I this is the experience I've been going through as well. I'm thinking about making another video addressing the RS2, how to rig it up, which cable to use and the drawbacks of using each cable for a7iii's and an a6400 (those are the cameras I have). Lots of trade offs based on camera and even resolution.

Brilliant vid and really helped get my RS2 and RavenEye working with my S1 Glad I didn't have to rely solely on the DJI quick start guide that although "correct" leaves a lot open to interpretation One small glitch that I came across is a limit on what resolution can be filmed and sent over HDMI at the same time Therefore you can have everything setup & show in the app, but the image freezeses as soon as you press record To resolve this you need to reduce the video quality for it to work I have only tried this on my Pansonic Lumix S1, but reading a few other forums it seems to be an issue on the Sony A7 as well It looks to be a restriction set in the camera, so hopefully will be resolved in firmware updates

If you connect everything but the usb c cable from RSS to the camera, the Raveneye will at least send a video signal, or it needs the double connection (hdmi and usb-c) with the camera necessarily? My camera Blackmagic needs the usb-c port and I only need to send a video signal, no tracking or other fancy stuff.. Thank you in advance for the answer, man!

@jeffbrass2351 3 жыл бұрын

awesome vids. have been very helpful. One thing I would say though is on regards to coiled HDMI cables on gimbals - they can be crap for balance - as the gimbal moves the tension changes hence changing the balance. They also always place strain on the HDMI connections and we've seen a few people have failed HDMI ports who where using coiled cables. And the majority of people we have helped with dropped frames/failed recordings that have been cable issues, its the Atomos coiled cable that has been the issue. At one stage we were coming across it a couple of times a week.just my 2 cents worth :)

@keith-knittel 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Jeff, saw your comment a week ago but guess my comment didn't send. I could see how after repeatedly using smaller coiled cables that will put a lot of stress on the port (especially micro HDMI's like the A7III) I'm going to include a more thorough HDMI cable break down in my next RS2 video. I've gone nuts purchasing multiple mini to full HDMI cables of lengths and coiled/uncoiled for my A7III, and now since purchasing the A7S III - full size cables. Since it seems like you have a lot of experience with this, do you have any recommendations for cables for me to test? Not that I need anymore cables! But interested in what you think the best ones are. Thanks for your 2 cents!

Hi! I work with a Sony a6400 and recently bought RSC2 and Raveneye. I've already managed to connect and have access to control the camera's gimbal, tracking and REC. However, I can't change the aperture, speed and ISO parameters (they are set to "0"). I replaced the accompanying cable (sony multi) with the micro usb cable, in this case I can change the values but when starting to record (REC), the image is black on the smartphone and on the display. I've checked everything and I don't know what it can be. The settings are like Remote PC and HDMI Auto output. If you know what it can be, thank you.

Hey there Evan, the range for active track is very lens and movement dependent. I wouldn't rely on this as a completely remote camera operator, but for help filming things and keeping them in the frame it can be helpful. I use it for filming objects, but as far as setting it up and filming and taking the place of a camera operator.. the tech isnt there yet in my opinion. It's getting better, but not as good as the drone active tracking yet. Hope that helps! I have another video about the RS2 and raveneye that goes into a little more detail on my channel.

@keith-knittel 3 жыл бұрын

Depends on your camera and control cables you’re using. With the a7iii you’ll need to use the usbc cable to control camera settings. Thanks for the kind words and watching

Trying to hook a rs3 up to Raveneye. Active track just isn’t working (funny because it did for about 10 minutes). Don’t know what I did but now all I get is the the green box. It tracks me but no gimbal movements. Frustrated

Keith Your video is great. It would be great if you could do an in-depth video on the Rs2 , RavenEye and the Sony a7iii. A complete setup for slow people like myself. A complete guide for beginners from A-Z. Thats my hope. Happy Holidays...

@@keith-knittel I really enjoyed the video. I believe you know what you're doing but for some reason I can't get your set up to work. Ive followed it to the tee and when I hit play both screens go dark. I watched another video and they used the Sony Multi.I did this like I believe you did and the screen works but little camera control. Check out my Nephews channel "The Cosmic Wonder" he's pretty big. Maybe y'all could do something together. Also my firmware is up to date. Man I want this to work.

@@edthompson9123 That's just the limitation of the A7III, I've really resisted the urge to make a sony a7iii + rs2 setup video in all the configurations since firmware may update in the future (and there are multiple configurations to use the camera, raven eye, control cable and gimbal together) but if you need the RavenEye with the A7III, I typically don't use any camera control cable at all. Just start/stop and adjust the settings on your camera. USBC connections cause the screen to go black when recording in 4K (cant remember about 1080p). This isn't a fault of the raven eye, but a fault of the camera - so it's frustrating to diagnose. Anymore, I'm leaning towards no cable at all and just press record manually on the A7III. I just picked up an A7S III, so I'll do more testing with that camera as well. Sorry for the long-winded response, but thank you for following up. This camera and gimbal combination is confusing and frustrating, the lack of docs makes it even worse. I think I'm going to end up making a video going in-depth of what can and can't work with the A7III and RS2. It's just taking a long time to make!

Perfect your Video, and Explanations on how to use RavenEye. My question is: Can I make a stream on KZfaq with these Settings? Is it possible to configure the camera that generates the IP, or the Smartphone that is mirroring the camera as a Capture source? Thanks!

@keith-knittel 3 жыл бұрын

Interesting question, but there is no streaming from the Ronin app. This is more for monitoring. There are other ways to stream from a camera, but they require additional hardware most of the time. I have a mirrorless camera setup that I use for Zoom calls / screen recording tutorials if they require a camera. I might be able to make a video going over that if that would help? But it has nothing to do with the RavenEye or RS2. Thanks for watching and the interesting question

@MICHELANGELOCINEFOTO 3 жыл бұрын

@@keith-knittel Thank you very, very much for your attention in answering my question. I was really curious to better understand this feature. I think any material that facilitates Streaming combining the use of the camera with Gimbal is valid. But I imagined that it really wouldn't be possible, except with a Video Card example: Blackmagic Atem Mini, which has dedicated output. What I found interesting is the movements of Gimbal with RevenEye in a possible Live, and the absurd quality of the images. Grateful!

Great video which covers most of the issues I came across - wish I had seen this first. I have one annoying problem. Having attached the RavenEye I cannot balance the gimbal from the app when connected using the RavenEye (Wifi) connection. Frustratingly that means that you have to disconnect, enable BlueTooth, connect and balance and then disconnect BT and connect via Wifi. Am certain I'm missing something but cannot find what the problem is. Would be good to have HDMI passthrough to route onto a recorder and still retain the remote camera controls and record full resolution.

@keith-knittel 3 жыл бұрын

What camera, camera settings and control cables are you using? Are you able to balance the camera while using the RavenEye at all? You should be able to balance this with the raven eye even if you're using a heavy lens / camera. Thanks for watching and the kind words, Ian!

@ianflint4610 3 жыл бұрын

@@keith-knittel - I should have said the Balance check in the app, not balancing. Have just moved up to an R5 but couldn't use my Ronin S fully. I just couldn't get it The Balance check to run when connected via RavenEye - Kept getting "Connect to the gimbal' even though it was in fact connected. I think the app got itself confused. Done the whole setup again and it works now. Suspect temperamental software. The sequence in which you connect is probably the cause. Got to remember to connect via WiFi and then connect RavenEye turning off BT along the way. Complicated and not intuitive. A minor glitch when considering the whole package.

@aerial guide, thanks for this tutorial. Are you able to use RavenEye to control a manual lens (e.g. Sirui 35mm anamorphic lens)? I am able to use RavenEye for auto-focus while shooting video on my Lumix GH5 with a native Lumix (auto-focus) 12-60mm lens but not with any manual lens. RS2 has a focus motor but I don't know how I can use it. I read that I can auto-focus manual lens only with 3D focus. Another issue is: I thought the RS2 gimbal red button (or on the ronin mobile app) is to record the video using my GH5 but it does not. thanks

@keith-knittel 3 жыл бұрын

That's correct - you'll need the 3D focus for that. I don't have access to the 3D module yet, so I don't have any experience with that yet. As for the recording from the RS2 or Ronin app, make sure you're using the correct camera control cable. Check the link in the description to DJI's supported cameras and cables. Thanks for watching and the question!
