GVM Motorized Camera Slider, 31" Carbon Fiber Dolly Rail Camera Slider with Time-Lapse Photography, Tracking Shooting and 120 Degree Panoramic Shooting for Most Cameras, with Remote Controller

I've taken this slider to two shoots and on both occasions, I've been wasting time going through the motions setting it up Infront of my clients for it to just 'not work'! It didn't look great ..I had to ditch it and use a standard static 2 cam setup for my interviews. The ironic bit is, I did a practice setup at my apartment before hand and it worked..In this industry you need to be able to rely on your gear. This product is not reliable at all.

Todo el tiempo supe en dónde y cuándo llegaba mi paquete. Excelente atención.

SEE 11/2020 UPDATE BELOWI haven't had a chance to fully field-test this slider yet, but so far I've been loving the features included. As I gain more experience with this slider, I will be updating this review, so expect more details on features soon. I'm a huge fan of NP-F powered film gear, as the batteries are extremely high capacity and relatively inexpensive compared to v-mount or gold-mount options. The built in remote control means we don't need a smartphone or other device to control the slider, and the inclusion of control cables leads me to believe there might be some ability to control cameras from the remote as well.For now, I can say the case is fantastic, the design is sleek and smooth, and the components included seem to be high-quality and durable. I note a few of the shortcomings in my video, but those are all extremely minor with easy workarounds. I'm curious to see how smooth the pan function is, as well as what speeds can be achieved by this slider. The price-point does seem a bit high, but I'm hoping the functions within the remote will justify the cost. So far it has been a great step up from a less expensive slider with similar functions, and has become my go-to motorized slider.I'll be back with updates soon!UPDATE 11/2020OK, it's official. I love this slider.I've used this slider on dozens of gigs now, actually getting an entire summer of work as a cam op for PBS during which my slider was the main reason they were calling me. Being able to run this thing on an NPF970 battery for 8hrs is amazing, and I haven't had a battery die on me yet. It's withstood direct sunlight in the middle of summer at 110°F, spritzing rain and drizzle (I bagged up the electronics, but there was still water getting into the gears), and a LOT of abuse and getting thrown into my trunk.It takes practice to be able to set the parallax, and lots of patience to be able to do it perfectly. Always allow 15m to get this set up and finalized, simply because adjusting and balancing two tripods, then mounting the slider, then balancing the camera on top, then setting in and out points takes some serious time.Don't let that discourage you from this slider though. Out of all the other motorized options I've tried (some costing well over $2500) this is by far the fastest, lightest, and most effective setup. It's extremely smooth and doesn't translate vibration into the camera at all. Ive also had rigs on this that were 12lbs at the very least and it never bat an eye. Maybe if it was set on an incline, but so far I've had zero issues.Love this product, and love GVM! Great experiences with them and their equipment all around.

Good gear to be added to your filming equipments

The remote is absolute crap... so plastic and “clicky.” The menu in the remote is also a little too basic... doesn’t really do a good job at allowing you to understand what you’re controlling.The manual is hard to understand unless you’re good at figuring things out on your own with only a little bit of help.Good quality on the slider itself. It’s durable, smooth, and the motor runs quite well. I’m happy to know that this is where most of the cost of the slider went to and not the controller (though I wish that was much better).
