Connection Tripod / Dolly

Respectively at the ends and in the centre, the guide rails have a one-quarter inch (on request three-quarters inch) thread and so are coupeable to every quick-release plate commercially available.

Connection Camera / Dolly

At the top side, there is a three-eights thread screw, where every tripod/video head may be screwed on. The Video head
is not included.

The control system and battery are combined in one device. The speed is infinitely adjustable. Clockwise/left-handed rotation. The energy comes from eight commercially available AA batteries. n "drive shoot drive" mode, the number of steps /photos is adaptable via potentiometer. Minimum number of steps / photos referred to 100cm is 300, maximum 4000.

Remote Timer

The timer is connected to the main controller. The stop time is adjusted via a potentiometer. The stop time is the time stopped by the dolly between the individual photos. The shortest stop time is two seconds, the longest 2 min. The camera is automatically actuated after every stop.

Maximum Load

The slider may be operated in a horizontal, vertical and overhead way. The maximum camera weight in horizontal operation is approx. 6 kg (13 lbs), in vertical/diagonal function approx. 3,5 kg (7.7 lbs) (including head).

 

Finally

The Slider offered here has developed from a DIY project. It was my idea to build a compact and light-weight dolly that is easy to carry in a backpack and on journeys. The ‘75 version suits diagonally in a suitcase and thus is ideal for air travels as well.

At present, Pocketslider is still a one-man company. The sliders are built by myself in little series per month. Due to the increased demand longer waiting times cannot be excluded.
