Test report after a few months of use. I bought this slider after researching the market for a long time and finally I decided to give it a try, after all I was a small price to pay for the other option so why not I thought if you're reading you probably know it. and oh my god what a great solution. the tools you need to improve the quality of your work, but without a doubt these are huge tools that require a little patience and understanding. .1- Every time you turn on the slider you have to set the start and end points. that's something to consider. 2- The timeslot functionality is hard to understand but it works. 3- We need a place to place the controller. I ended up in more than one place trying to store the controller somewhere safe. Good things 1- Light weight 2- Noise is not a problem, I mainly use it for interviews and in my experience noise is not a problem. 3- It's smooth, really smooth, and the fact that it ramps up smoothly when stopped helps a lot. so no hard stops. 4- the ability to mechanically track an object or object. (Note that you have to play with this feature and it's not 100% accurate, but when this functionality comes in this price range it's awesome, even if you play with it a few times it's very easy) 5- them uses style Sony NPF batteries, and in my case it's great, I already have a lot of them. Ultimately, I think this is a great option if you're looking for a motorized slider. Also GVM has a few motorized pot and pan options but I haven't tried them, I plan on doing it in the future.
