@@MattRozier1 O don’t have any jitters with the slider. They only occur if you use a very heavy lens so that the camera isn‘t balanced at the center of the slider. If that’s the case I use a longer mounting plate for the Komodo head and put the camera a bit backwards so that the center of the weight is at the center of the slider. I hope you know what I mean.
Thanks for this video! For full 90 degree vertical, it's best not to use the moving plate to mount on a tripod. Better to use the mont point on the end of the slider opposite the control panel
Recently grabbed the iFootage shark slider nano and absolutely love it. Only complaint is that it now comes in a cheap styrofoam carrying case compared to the nice iFootage bag.
Thank you! Well I like the Nano because it’s an all-in-one system. And it’s incredibly easy and quick to setup your slider angles. On the other hand the travel distance is not too much, if you need more than 35cm then I‘d probably go for the Mini.
Is that the Lowepro 450 backpack that you had it in? Doesn’t appear to fit, at least not very well. I have the 450 and wonder if I need something larger?
Great quick to the point review. I think even with the downside to moving vertically this efficient setup fits my needs. 2 ?'s... What tripod is that you show and what camera settings did you use for that office time-lapse? I really liked the motion blur. Not sure if it was in post or in the individual shot. Subscribed! I like your style.
Hi Dave, thanks for subscribing! The tripod is a tinkteek wing and I love it because it’s so light and portable but sturdy. The timelapse was filmed in kormal speed, I just sped it up in final cut pro, there was no extra motion blur added. Cheers!
Fab video. I will be using it with the A7SIII for a second dynamic shooting angle for interviews. Any recommendations on whether I should use a wide shot (Sony 24mm GM 1.4) or a close shot (Zeiss Batis 85mm 1.8)?
Hi! I have the Sony A7siii as well and used it last week with the slider for an Interview. I shot it at 35mm so if your options only are 24 or 85mm, I'd suggest to shoot at 24. Because cropping in in a 4K shot is always possible and with 85mm you may run into distance-problems. I had the same last week, where I used my second camera (Canon EOS R) as a B-CAM on a tripod with a 85mm lens. I had problems to move it as far away as I wanted it to be because there was a wall behind the camera ;-)
@@RonaldKasper very helpful I am just about to get the Sony FE 35mm 1.8 and sense from your feedback that it’s the perfect focal length and it’s also a very light lens 👍
Servus Ronald, habe auch den Slider gekauft. Welches Stativ bzw wie würdest den Slider auf Stativ montieren? Mit Nivelierbasis? Ich habe ein Gitzo GT2545.
Servus! Ich verwende den Slider auf einem TinkTeek WING Stativ (selbstverständlich ohne den Kugelkopf und auch irgend eine Nivelierbasis). Ich verwende das Stativ weil ich es extrem tief stellen kann und es durch die weit rausragenden Beine sehr stabil ist und nicht kippt. Ich verwende den iFootage Komodo K5 Fluid Head am Slider, wie in diesem Video zu sehen ist: ruclips.net/video/had8i3BoTok/видео.html (ca bei 02:40) And in english since not everybody can speak german: The question was which tripod I use. It's the TinkTeek WING which I use without the ballhead on top. I screw the slider directly on the tripod. I like it because you can get really low and since the legs stretch out really wide, I get very stable shots with it. I use the iFootage Komodo K5 fluid head which can be seen in this video: ruclips.net/video/had8i3BoTok/видео.html (I show it in detail at 02:40 there)
@@RonaldKasper Danke Ronald für schnelle Rückmeldungen! Interessant ist, dass der Kopf nicht wirklich die besten Bewertungen bekommt und den Vergleich mit preisgleichen Manfrottoköpfen verliert - siehe ruclips.net/video/tTU8LvsBWLw/видео.html oder ruclips.net/video/0DFthywwFzU/видео.html
@@RonaldKasper ad Montage vom Slider auf Stativ - danke für den Hinweis auf Dein 10 Tipps Video, dort sehe ich nicht wie Du den Slider auf die Basis montiert hast?
What a nice piece of gear! What's your opinion about the iFootage Shark Nano Slider?
Hey Ronald do you find you have any jitters with the shark nano? Thinking especially for product shots?
@@MattRozier1 O don’t have any jitters with the slider. They only occur if you use a very heavy lens so that the camera isn‘t balanced at the center of the slider.

I’m waiting for it to become available again. Looks like the best option for a compact 2-axis slider. Great info!
Yes I had to wait as well when I purchased it. But it’s worth it 😉

That’s true, I didn’t try this in my video 👍

I bought the bundle that comes with the bag as well.
@@RonaldKasper I got the bundle too but I guess iFootage ditched the nice bag.
absolutely hilarious b-roll. well done
Thank you so much!
It’s payload is so tiny (less than 3 kg). I am bummed that it can’t take my heavier Lense and camera setup.
amazing tutorial !
you deserve more follower!
Thanks! And yes, I‘d deserve more followers, but you too 😉
This is awesome. Thx!
Thanks mate!
@@RonaldKasper I have the monopod which I love! Any modular system is so helpful! Look forward to more reviews.
Great video! I'm between this slider vs the iFootage Shark Slider Mini (which is the previous version I think). Which one would you recommend?

It’s the Lowepro BP 350 AW II, in the 450 it should fit well.
I hate that this slider jumped in price and is only available in a pro bundle
I’m in the market for one but I definitely done need the bundle
Are you still loving this slider? I’m thinking about getting it for interviews.
Yes I do! No problems so far! 👍

hi what tripod and ballhead/fluid head do you recommend for this nano slider
