  • Review of the GVM motorized camera slider.
    Here I give my opinions about motorized camera sliders vs gimbals and other equipment. I also show you how I set up the GVM GP-80QD slider, explain its really cool features, and program its functions.
    I appreciate it is a long video but I do go into a lot of detail so it's worth sticking around if you can manage it :D

    Biggest point for me with having a motorised slider is the fact I don't need to be holding the gimbal/camera. I can create some cool and interesting shots of my work as I'm doing it, and that's the biggest win for me.

    Excellent review! Covers pretty much everything you'd need to know in a really engaging way. Love your honest, down to earth presentation style. I bought the Neewer 80cm slider a few months ago, but the wireless remote control system was so intermittent and unreliable that it was no real use on time pressured shoots where gear just has to work perfectly all of the time. Sent it back and based on this video I'll definitely be buying the GVM 80QD!!

    Mint review, thanks. A previous review mentioned an issue with the belt causing a slight knock in the footage - caused by a kink in the belt itself where it sits against the motor pulleys during storage for a period of time. If that makes sense. He said he took it off and poured boiling water on it and let it sit for 15 minutes and the kink eased off and the knock didn't happen again. Thought i'd mention it for anyone who's bought or is going to buy the slider.

    @pacificostudios Před 3 lety +1

    I just ordered one of these. I am going to use it for one-person pieces to camera in my bedroom studio, as a second camera, initially, but I think almost any indie film should use a second camera on a motorized slider while shooting the main footage. Remember to also use a clapperboard to help you can sync sound with your auxiliary camera.
    I think the key to using a budget motorized slider is to use a lightweight camera. I have a Canon HRF 800 camcorder that shoots 1080p and doesn't weigh much more than the battery that powers it, and it was about $250 new. I know that such a light camera will not strain the motor, cause excessive wear of the traction belt or cause excessive noise. I suspect many complaints about budget motorized sliders are from people who demand too much from a piece of kit that costs less than a telephoto lens.

    EDIT: Do you recommend the version with aluminum rails instead of carbon fiber? I've had experience using CF vs alum in other camera equipment like tripods, but not on a slider. Generally CF is lighter so less strenuous when carrying, but aluminum should provide a more stable movement?? Your thoughts?
