Battery
A DJI RS BG70 grip, 4800 mAh
The BG70 fits the RS 5 and runs about 29 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 5, not to the gimbal.
A memory card
The DJI RS 5 records nothing itself. The card goes in the camera it carries.
