  Sliders: which is best?

  Posted by Dean Longfield on April 11, 2012 at 4:15 pm

  I currently have a Sony EX1R and am looking to use a slider with this cam. Do you have any suggestions as to which sliders work best, (brand and model). I also am getting into DSLR video but am looking for a slider that may work well with both a small HD cam like the EX1R as well as a DSLR.

  Thanks

  I made my own and I love it. I wasn’t happy with the options (and the prices) so I made one. Doesn’t seem like you want to make one, but would rather buy one, so what’s your budget like? You can spend anywhere from $50 on up (or $20+ if you want to make one).
