Review on GVM Great Video Maker Motorized Camera Slider: Next-Level Video Shooting with Time-Lapse Functionality for Interviews, Films, and Photography by Pat Nard

AVAILABLE SLIDERS

Sometimes you will find a product on Revain and it will lead you to products from the same manufacturer and you will try those products too. This is also the case with the GVM GT-60D. I bought 2 of their batteries and then saw this inexpensive SLIDER so I decided to give it a try. I've wanted to make arc discharge products for a long time and this slider made it possible. To accomplish this task, I installed a gimbal. The slider is made of aluminum and comes with a wired remote control. Programming can be a bit tricky at first, but once you get the hang of it things get pretty easy. The device also has 4 adjustable feet and a spirit level. Adding suspension into the mix is really fun. You can use this slider's remote control to trigger your camera's shutter to do slow motion, but I'm not currently interested in using this slider for that. Overall, I think this slider is well made. It's quiet, but don't expect an audio recording camera to work on it unless the microphone is well isolated. The sound of the moving engine is recorded by moving the camera to the slider. I would recommend this slider to anyone who wants to add a different motion to their slow motion studies, photos and videos.

Pros
