Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It's really for any camera, as long as that camera has a standard tripod mounting hole at the bottom. This slider is ideal for a steadicam for two reasons. It allows you to move the unit laterally to dial in perfect laser projection when framing or fl...  Read More

It has a thousand uses. The only downside on this rail is that the measuring scale is not as precise as the neewer rail. It helps alot to balance things out and it never once got in the way with the size.

Great machined piece that locks well and moves when you want it to. Large knob is used to move the track in the mounting base. Small knob locks it in place or adjusts movement tension.

It wiggles a little bit back and forth and side to side. This is great for focus stacking and has clicks not a smooth slide. The clicks are subtle and don't actually make it shaky.



Cons

One of the two 1/4-20 screws on my unit is defective and jams after only one turn into my camera's threaded mount. It is heavy. It was covered in machine grease. The control knob is often below the camera and very difficult to turn.

Bought another one and was of a different quality

Price


The very low cost was a big plus


Id buy again but just because the price gap between this and something expensive is really large

Shipping


Also it arrived three weeks earlier than the promised shipping date

Packaging/appearance


Gt the all chinese retail packaging is adequate but i would have preferred an appropriate storage box or at least a storage pouch

Competitiveness


Used thi to make a labstyle vernier mount for a plugable usb microscope


My wife and i both use these for our extreme macro shots not just on dslrs but even on our superzoom pointandshoot cameras


Other than that i think its very good for what its worth considering a manfrotto slide that works with a lead screw is shy of 1...  Read More
