Explanatory Text:
==============
Modern gimbals can perfectly keep the horizon and smooth pans and tilts.
But, on long scenes you get those up-and-downs from your steps - even with the smoothest ninja walk.
The solution can be quite simple, and it works (watch video till the end for demo footage):
Mount your Ronin RS2 (or RS3 or RS4) with the Tilta mount onto your shoulder rig
Adjust the handgrips upward and according to the overall balance of the rig, and your best convenience when walking with this setup.
Mount a V-mount plate on the front of the rails (for good overall balance) for powering the Ronin
Mount a simple shoulder piece (the Smallrig piece is excellent) at the end of the rods (this allows to let the rig rest on your body for static shots or during short breaks)
Get a solid sling and attach it somewhere on both grips of the rig (ideally, the sling can be adjusted with one hand during use into longer or shorter)
Adjust the pan axis of the Ronin either at no movement or with high deadband to isolate your hip rotation from walking going into the camera
Add a monitor if desired (I did not need one)
Ideally, the sling is not engaged when walking. This turns your arms, in combination with the weight of the overall setup, into your "spring arms" that stabilize the Z-axis. The handgrips of the shoulder rig will give you enough arm strings to hold the setup even on long distances and keep the footage pretty smooth.
This has become my main rig when shooting long scenes with a gimbal and my heavy Lumix S1H.
With the sling you can carry this setup, despite its weight, over long distances.
Have some fun!
