DJI improved the compatibility of the Fujifilm X-T3 the other day after Fujifilm updated their Firmware last month to better support gimbals.

Ronin-S
Overview:

What’s New?

Added video recording and focus pull support for Fujifilm XT3 cameras with supported X mount lenses using the Multi-Camera Control Cable (MCC-C). Requires Fujifilm XT3 firmware v3.1.0 or later. Note that the camera is unable to auto focus in video recording mode.
Added photo capture, video recording, autofocus, and focus pull support for Canon EOS 200D cameras with supported EF mount lenses using the Multi-Camera Control Cable (MCC-Mini). To use autofocus on the Canon EOS 200D, press halfway down on the gimbal’s camera control button.
Added photo capture, video recording, autofocus, and focus pull support for Canon EOS M6 Mark II cameras with supported EF-M mount lenses using the Multi-Camera Control Cable (MCC-C). To use autofocus on the Canon EOS M6 Mark II, press halfway down on the camera control button of the gimbal.
Fixed issue: the Tethered Control Handle could not be used with the Command Unit.
Fixed issue: camera settings failed to save after firmware updates when using the Infrared Camera Cable.
Optimized UI of Create and Settings pages of Command Unit.

Notes:

Make sure that the DJI Ronin App is the latest version when updating the firmware.
Make sure Ronin-S is powered off and update the firmware through the DJI Pro Assistant for Ronin by connecting the USB-C port on Ronin-S to your computer. Do not disconnect the gimbal from the computer while updating.
After the update is complete, unplug the USB-C cable from Ronin-S and proceed to power on the gimbal.
If Ronin-S has a camera attached and is turned on while updating the firmware, make sure to protect the camera and lens as the motors will shut off during the update.
If the firmware update fails, restart the Ronin-S and retry.
