Which accessories does the DJI RS 3 need?

The specification points at a battery.

The DJI RS 3

What to buy

This page carries affiliate links. A purchase pays this account a commission, at no extra cost to you.

Battery

A DJI RS BG70 grip, 4800 mAh

The BG70 fits the RS 3 and runs about 29.5 hours, against the 12 the standard grip manages.

What to skip

An ND filter

A gimbal carries your own camera, so a filter belongs to the lens you mount on the DJI RS 3, not to the gimbal.

A memory card

The DJI RS 3 records nothing itself. The card goes in the camera it carries.
