"The DJI Ronin 4D Flex is one of those accessories that really changes what the Ronin 4D can do on set. I like it because it lets you separate the camera head from the main body, which opens up much lighter handheld operation and far more creative options for jibs, cars, tight spaces and remote-style movement."

Product description
Rent a DJI Ronin 4D Flex if you need to make your Ronin 4D setup lighter, more adaptable and easier to use in constrained or unusual shooting environments. It is a strong option for filmmakers, gimbal operators and commercial crews who want to separate the camera head from the main Ronin 4D body for more flexible rigging and movement.
The DJI Ronin 4D Flex is an extension unit designed specifically for DJI Ronin 4D cinema cameras. It allows the Zenmuse X9 camera and gimbal section to be detached from the main body and connected via a 6.6-foot cable, creating a much more compact front-end setup while maintaining communication with the rest of the system. In practical terms, that means you can reduce handheld operating weight significantly and place the camera in positions that would be far more awkward with the full Ronin 4D body attached directly behind it.
What makes the Flex especially useful is that it is not just about making the setup smaller. It also makes the Ronin 4D more versatile for remote-head style shooting, car work, jib mounting, extension-rod use and tighter interior environments where camera placement matters more than a traditional handheld configuration. For anyone looking for a DJI Ronin 4D Flex rental through a dependable camera rental Canada supplier, it is a very smart option when you need to get more out of the Ronin 4D platform.
Key features
Extension system for DJI Ronin 4D cinema cameras with support for the Zenmuse X9 camera
6.6-foot cable for separating the camera and gimbal section from the main body
Reduces handheld front-end operating weight to around 4 lb for lighter shooting
Supports integration with Ronin 4D handgrips, the High-Bright Main Monitor and related accessories
Multiple mounting points including 1/4"-20, 3/8"-16 and cold shoe options for flexible rigging
Flexible camera placement and rigging workflow
The DJI Ronin 4D Flex is built to expand the physical possibilities of the Ronin 4D system rather than change its image pipeline. By moving the camera and gimbal section away from the main body, it makes the front-end setup far easier to place in tight interiors, on vehicles, under low ceilings, on jibs or in compact handheld configurations where the full camera body would be too bulky or heavy. The 6.6-foot cable carries both communication and image data between the main system and the detached head, allowing the Ronin 4D to maintain its operating logic while becoming much more flexible in the way it can actually be deployed.
This rental includes the core accessories needed to make the Flex unit usable in practice, including USB-C display and adapter cables, handgrip mounting support and the pan-axis quick-lock. The unit also offers mounting threads and a cold shoe point, which makes it easier to adapt the setup for extension rods, support arms and remote-style positioning. Because it is designed around the Ronin 4D ecosystem, it works best for productions already committed to that platform rather than as a universal standalone accessory.
Why rent the DJI Ronin 4D Flex?
The DJI Ronin 4D Flex is an excellent rental choice for car rigs, jib work, compact handheld shooting, tight-location filming, remote-style camera placement and more technical productions where the standard Ronin 4D layout is simply too bulky. It is especially useful when you want to keep the image and stabilisation advantages of the Ronin 4D while moving the camera head into a more practical operating position.
It also makes a lot of sense as a rental because it is a specialist accessory for a very specific camera ecosystem. When the project needs it, it can make a real difference to how the camera can be used. When it does not, there is little reason to keep it in a standard kit. Renting lets you bring in that extra Ronin 4D flexibility only when the assignment genuinely benefits from it.
Rent a DJI Ronin 4D Flex from Canada Camera Rentals and expand what your Ronin 4D setup can do with lighter operation, more creative placement and a far more adaptable shooting workflow.

The Ronin 4D Flex is used to separate the Ronin 4D camera and gimbal section from the main body, making the setup lighter and much easier to rig in tight, unusual or more technical shooting positions.
No. It is designed specifically for the DJI Ronin 4D system and related accessories such as the Ronin 4D handgrips, High-Bright Main Monitor, LiDAR Range Finder and Zenmuse X9 components.
The Flex uses a 6.6-foot cable, which gives enough separation to make handheld, jib and tighter rigging setups much more practical than the standard body configuration.
Yes. One of its main benefits is reducing the weight of the handheld front-end setup to around 4 lb, which makes operation more manageable for certain shots and support methods.
This accessory is especially useful for car work, jib shots, compact handheld shooting, tight interiors and other productions where the full Ronin 4D body is harder to position effectively.
Yes. The unit includes multiple mounting points, including 1/4"-20 threads, a 3/8"-16 thread and a cold shoe mount, which helps with extension rods, support arms and other rigging configurations.
