Yes, the DJI RS 4 works with the Sony Alpha 1 — but only Verdict assumes a Sigma 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS |.
DJI RS 4's stated payload capacity is 3kg (6.6lbs) per DJI's own product page -- the highest of the three gimbals in this category. Sony Alpha 1 (737g) + Sigma 150-600mm Sports (2,100g) = ~2,837g, fitting within that capacity where the same combination exceeds both the RS 3 Mini and RS 4 Mini's 2kg limits. 'What works instead' pairing for Alpha 1 owners using this heavy telephoto lens.
Conditions for compatibility
Verdict assumes a Sigma 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS | Sports lens (2,100g, per Sigma's own product page). Alpha 1 body (737g) + this lens = ~2,837g, within DJI RS 4's stated 3kg (6.6lbs) payload capacity but close to the limit (~95%) -- balance margin is tight. Check your specific lens weight against the 3kg limit before buying; a heavier lens or added accessories (battery grip, follow focus) may exceed it.
