Fantastic review. Thanks for posting Hugh. I need to get one of these ! Did not know this existed. Seems to be more versatile than a typical slider for outdoor shots. Love it. All the best from Toronto!
@thymeparzival2 жыл бұрын
I had been researching sliders for a year at half this price point, but I bought this within hours of discovering it because its design is a game changer. Despite a few features I would have liked to see, there is nothing else on the market at this point that has its level of versatility. Plus, when I told my partner she could film overhead cooking videos with it she was immediately on board.

Wow, I did not even know that such a piece of gear exists. I am in the middle of making up my mind about a motorized slider, and now I need to rethink. Only the weight limit could be a bit of a challenge for my LUMIX S1H, but I need to recheck the weight of it. Another nice thing is to add a gimbal at the top of a slider, allowing to pan an tilt the camera while sliding, but it may add additional weight. Love your videos!

Hey Hugh, I know I am late to the game... but I found your review of this slider and wanted to say how informative and interesting it is. I actually have one coming in a few days and hope I can use it to up my game on videos. I don't vlog... but I have a few ideas to at least try and I thought this just might push me to try it. If I don't like it... no one has to see it and I will find was to use it in my wildlife videos. Greg

@HuFilms3 жыл бұрын
Honestly, for filmmaking the best way to quickly get shots done is to have it in cycle mode. Let it slide away in and out and have yourself or your subjects walk in and out of frame while it's doing the move. A simple 'cycle' mode button would be great instead of holding the plus and minus buttons for 3 or 4 seconds and wondering if it's in cycle mode or not as is something that keeps happening me. Three buttons on the upper handle would go a long way.

The app is the best part about this. It is by far the best app of any motorized slider. I wish the developer that made the app joins forces with GVM or neewer... Or just moza make a normal track slider with this app. Please. The deal breaker on this is the loudness. I can see this being great for studio and interview use, but not with that mechanical sound. Stealth motors are available. They are faster and quiter.

If you have the Rhino II Arc would there be any good reason to get this (already having the Aircross II Gimble) ‘cause it looks like it would be easier to setup for vertical shots… Also, I bought into the Nikon Z6 and no one (other than Atomos Ninja) has bought into that “game changing” (😅) alternative (if Apple FCPX ever comes up with a profile for that ProRes RAW instead of having to use Sony’s CIN to match the Z6’s video chip) 🧐

Th SlyPod pro is a less refined slider (in terms of movement) than the Rhino ARC 2. That said, it's going to be way more convenient for those vertical and low pov moves. I find myself using a traditional slider more bit the slypod is fab for outdoor work where I'm filming myself etc,
