Design and Build

The RS 4 Mini sports a light grey finish and maintains DJI’s commitment to portable design. Notable physical features include:

  • Built-in tripod feet for standalone operation
  • Compatibility with both mirrorless cameras and smartphones
  • Ergonomic design optimized for extended use
  • Compact form factor maintaining the Mini series’ portable nature

Advanced AI Tracking System

The premium variant’s standout feature is its dedicated tracking camera, suggesting DJI is bringing its advanced subject tracking capabilities to the RS lineup. This system is expected to offer:

  • Real-time subject recognition and tracking
  • Enhanced AI-powered focus capabilities
  • Improved tracking accuracy compared to previous models
  • Seamless integration with supported cameras

Market Positioning and Context

The RS 4 Mini’s dual-variant strategy appears to address different segments of the content creator market. The standard version serves users seeking essential stabilization, while the tracking-enabled model caters to more demanding scenarios requiring autonomous subject tracking.

This release follows the success of the RS 3 Mini, which currently retails for $279.00 USD. The new model’s features and dual-variant approach suggest DJI is expanding its market presence in the compact gimbal segment while introducing professional-grade tracking capabilities previously reserved for higher-end models.

Industry Implications

DJI’s integration of AI tracking technology into the RS Mini series represents a significant evolution in compact gimbal capabilities. This development could reshape expectations for entry-level professional stabilizers, potentially influencing competitor products and market dynamics.

The addition of smartphone compatibility also indicates DJI’s recognition of the growing mobile content creation market, offering a professional-grade solution for both smartphone and mirrorless camera users within a single product line.

Looking Ahead

While the official release date remains unconfirmed, the completeness of the leaked product and DJI’s typical release patterns suggest a launch may be imminent. The RS 4 Mini appears positioned to strengthen DJI’s dominance in the handheld stabilizer market while introducing advanced features to a broader user base.

DroneXL will continue to monitor developments and provide updates as more information becomes available about this exciting addition to DJI’s gimbal lineup.
