Product Information

Full details

The SmallRig 100g Counterweight is an essential tool for videographers and content creators using gimbal stabilizers who need to achieve perfect camera balance for smooth footage. It is designed for users of the DJI Ronin-S and various Zhiyun Crane or Weebill models to help offset heavy lens configurations or uneven camera setups. While it offers excellent versatility for stacking, users should note that significant weight imbalances may require multiple units to achieve complete stability.

FAQs

Can I attach this to any camera?

Yes, as long as your camera cage or mounting plate has a standard 1/4-20 threaded hole.

How many counterweights can I stack together?

You can stack multiple weights as needed, but always ensure the total payload does not exceed your gimbal's maximum weight capacity.

Is this compatible with the DJI Ronin-S?

Yes, it is fully compatible with the Ronin-S when used with an appropriate mounting plate.

What material is the weight made of?

The counterweight is constructed from durable, high-quality stainless steel.

Do I need any tools to install these?

No, they are designed for tool-free, hand-tightened installation.

Troubleshooting

Weight keeps unscrewing during gimbal movement

Ensure the weight is tightened firmly against the mounting surface; you may also use a thin rubber washer to increase friction.

Gimbal motors still struggle despite adding counterweights

Check your camera's physical position on the plate before adding weight; ensure you have performed a mechanical balance before relying on counterweights.

Pros and Cons

Pros

High-grade stainless steel durability
Highly modular with stackable screw/thread system
Compatible with industry-standard 1/4-20 mounting points
Essential for balancing front-heavy lens setups

Cons

Individual weight is fixed at 100g
Requires compatible mounting plate for optimal use
Adding too many weights may increase total gimbal payload beyond motor limits

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your gimbal is powered off. If you are using a SmallRig dedicated mounting plate like the 2274, 2277, or 2283, simply screw the counterweight directly into the available 1/4-20 threaded hole. If you need more than 100g, attach a second unit by threading it into the 1/4-20 hole located on the end of the first weight.

Compatibility:

Gimbals: DJI Ronin-S, Zhiyun Crane series, Zhiyun Weebill Lab series.
Mounts: Any 1/4-20 standard tripod hole or compatible SmallRig gimbal plates.

Care:

Wipe down with a clean, dry cloth to prevent moisture buildup.
Periodically check that connections are tight to prevent the weights from vibrating loose during movement.
