Smartphone adapter DJI 998316 gimbal camera accessory for DJI gimbals, smartphone mount

The DJI 998316 smartphone adapter is an official DJI gimbal camera accessory that secures a smartphone to compatible DJI gimbals for stable handheld filming. Designed to integrate with DJI stabilizers, the adapter holds the smartphone firmly in place while the gimbal compensates for motion, helping to reduce shake and produce smoother video footage. The accessory is intended for use when attaching a phone to a DJI gimbal to capture stable cinematic and everyday clips.

Advantages

The adapter offers a reliable mounting interface engineered to fit DJI gimbals and maintain phone position during movement. Its construction balances firm clamping with straightforward installation, enabling fast setup and removal without tools. By aligning the smartphone with the gimbal’s center of gravity, the adapter helps the stabilizer operate more efficiently and reduces motor strain, contributing to longer gimbal runtime and steadier footage.

How to use

Attach the adapter to the gimbal’s smartphone mounting point following the gimbal manufacturer’s instructions.

Recommendations

For best results, use the adapter with phones whose size falls within the clamp’s adjustable range and balance the phone on the gimbal before use. Avoid over-tightening the clamp to prevent damage to the smartphone frame.
