Konova DSLR Video Camera Slider Dolly Review

[jacquesone100]

looking good!

[agnosticautonomy]

Is it safe to say the difference between the KONOVA K Slider 3080 NA-8 and the Konova K3B2 50KG...... three roller barrings vs 4 roller barrings?

Thanks for the review it was very helpful.

[MyPartytime69]

@agnosticautonomy me too, I'm wondering, what the difference is between the k3b2 and the k5. I don't see the 3080 na-8

How much is a slider dolly like this, I guess 250 ?

[2migell]

is this only for canon photo camera

or can you use it with any camera

thnaks

[MrCheesyCam]

@2migell Any camera look at OliviaTech dot. com

Also, if I slide slow? Will that make the noise lessen?

[MrCheesyCam]

@77mrd Yes, there is some noise to the slider. If you place a shotgun microphone on the camera, you'll hear it less because the microphone is picking up audio a bit further away than the in camera microphone.

@MrCheesyCam

Do I need to order a tripod head for this? Or is that optional?

Thanks,

Dave

@77mrd you'll need to have a head, just a standard quarter witworth mount :)

Just ordered mine today, so stoked to use it.

[markydmark80]

@77mrd You don't have to use a tripod, it comes with two flat legs with feet so you can place on the ground or table etc. A tripod gives you the option of way more shots though.

[77mrd]

If I use on camera audio, do you think I will pickup a lot of noise when I use the slider? Basically, does the slider make alot of noise?

[MrCheesyCam]

Konova wins..true ball bearings.

[DudeFromUkraine]

this vs indislider or glidetrack?

[MrCheesyCam]

@DudeFromUkraine Konova wins. True ball bearings.

[DudeFromUkraine]

@MrCheesyCam thanks, do you know why it went from 250 to 350? Also, have you tried indislider? If so, how is that?

[MrCheesyCam]

@DudeFromUkraine Supply and demand. They also made some extra additions since the first release. There's 4 bearings instead of 3 and a few other improvements.

[DudeFromUkraine]

@MrCheesyCam Thanks so much for your help! I really want the konova, but for the review I do on my channel. I think the indislider will do the job for now. Also, will save a few hundred bucks with iS. Thanks again!

[JacanaProductions]

Why would this be better than a dry bearing (DryLin®) unit such as the $160 Igus unit? I guess Igus needs some work once you get it (drilling some holes etc) but DryLin bearings are used in commercial machines costing thousands of dollars.

[MrCheesyCam]

@JacanaProductions Roller Bearing sliders take no effort to move it. It's really a matter of preference, but these types are quickly becoming the favorite for it's silky smooth movements. It takes a bit of practice to manage friction, but one of the best bang for the bucks sliders out right now.

I was responding to your comment in the video that you hadn't read the instructions (2:58). If you had glanced at the instructions only to find there was nothing useful in the instructions, that information would have added something useful to your review. My comment was not a complaint, more of a suggestion.

[MrCheesyCam]

@timtrottproductions Thanks, this video was actually a follow up to an earlier article. This is literally 'THE FIRST' introduction video about this slider anywhere on the internet. Since it took several days to receive it, I wanted to quickly follow up with my blog readers. i've actually released other articles and videos about this slider after this initial one. If you want to keep up with DSLR gear and tips, please check out my blog. My videos are usually just additions to the write-ups. =)

[realtytour]

Wouldn't it make sense to glance at the instructions BEFORE doing a video?

[MrCheesyCam]

@realtytour Typically a slider goes left, and then it goes right. There are no instructions. What I showed was a tool kit to adjust friction. It's not a a set of instructions.

[Fibr3Optix]

Mine is wobbly and gets stuck. So far Im not that impressed.

[MichaelAngeloTech]

@Fibr3Optix I wonder if there is something wrong with the bearings in your carriage assembly. Have you tried adjusting them? I also made sure to clean out any dust or particles that might have been on the rail.

[restoremysneakers]

What kind of tripod are you using and also pan head? Thanks.

[JGKreations]

Thanks always for the info! Love the website too!

[olyezay]

waiting for the full review :)

[oyapon]

[Editor02Channel]

@oyapon Looks like it needs to be bought off ebay, costing around US $285.00, with US $42 shipping.
