Best motorized slider for under $500?

upwithmike — Fri, 23 Mar 2018 16:14:03 +0000

So far I've been looking at Ashanks (on Amazon) and A&J Pro (on B&H), but if anyone has a better suggestion, please let me know before I pull the trigger!

I'd prefer a length of 36-48 inches, and I understand that at this price point I'm not going to get a silent motor, but at least a mostly quiet one would be nice.

Thanks, Mike

"Best" slider?

I know "BEST" can be very vague, but there is heaps of options out there and I'm not too sure which one to go with.

Have a budget of about US$300ish or less (less is better!), I'd prefer longer the better (right?), and is able to hold the weight of an APS-C DSLR (currently I am shooting with a Panasonic GH1, but I might soon upgrade to a Nikon D5200, which is a little heavier but is still lightweight).

Suggestions?

CNC and 3D printing for DSLR/photography

Dear guys, my name is Arek and I am GH2 owner. Since I bought my camera over 2 years ago I thought of tell You what am I doing. I am an owner of company specialized in High Resolution 3D Printing (Stereolithography) based in Poland, but a lot of time I spend helping my Dad in his company as 2nd CNC Operators Trainer/Teacher.

What does it mean to You?

It means that we have got 2 CNC machines - newest, few years used lathe and older, but launched few days ago milling machine which we can offer You! We are not typical producing company, because main area of activity is training, but why not to use our capacity. In managing area that kind of production is called MTO - Make To Order. If You have any ideas which we could work with, please let me know. From myself I can say, that we can produce for You cages, clams, rig parts etc but first of all, we need drawings. If anyone would be interested in I can also offer 3D printing but first I need to get 3D model in .stl format.

If You have any questions or quotes let me know in the post or PM!

Would be great to work with You all, because I love to work with hobbyists. I am ex modeler and Poznań University Of Technology graduate - I love to produce stuff ;)

Kind Regards, Arek
