NEEWER 31.5 inches / 80 cm carbon fibre camera slider, dolly with thicker tube and more stable support, 4 precise smooth bearings and levelling for DSLR camera camcorder, max load 8 kg, CS80 cm

It's a bit flexible from one side to another but still getting the job done. Overall good. You will definitely need the supports.

The friction is far too great. Its not possible to achieve a smooth movement with this slider. It sticks and jumps and requires too much force to move the mounting plate. Avoid.

The NEEWER 31.5in/80cm Carbon Fiber Camera Slider is a mixed bag, and I have some reservations about its performance. While it has its merits, the one area where it falls short is in providing a truly smooth sliding experience.Pros:Sturdy Build: I must commend the slider's construction. The carbon fiber build feels robust and durable, making it well-suited for outdoor shooting and travel.Decent Length: At 31.5 inches (80cm), the slider offers a good amount of slide length, providing versatility in my shots.Portability: It's relatively lightweight for its size, making it manageable to carry to different shooting locations.Cons:Smoothness Issues: My main gripe with this slider is its lack of smoothness. When I initially started using it, I had high hopes for silky-smooth camera movements. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. The slider tends to have noticeable friction and resistance, making it challenging to achieve the fluid, professional-looking shots I had in mind. This issue was particularly frustrating during video projects where smooth motion is crucial.

The bottom mounting threads are a different pattern but, the build quality is excellent.

Ich habe mir den Slider zum Geburtstag im Juli 2023 gewünscht und ihn seitdem im Einsatz. Kombiniert habe ich ihn mit einem preiswerten Andoer Mini-Kugelkopf für unter 25 EUR, um eine möglichst preiswerte Kombi zu erzielen. Natürlich kann man den Slider auch ohne einen Kamerakopf verwenden und die Kamera direkt aufschrauben. Ich bin mit dem Slider sehr zufrieden. Selbstverständlich erhält man nicht die Präzision eines motorbetriebenen Sliders, aber mit ein wenig Übung lassen sich ohne weiteres ruhige und smoothe Kamerafahrten auch von Hand realisieren. Dafür kosten vergleichbare motorisierte Systeme auch zwischen dem Drei- und dem Achtfachen des Kaufpreises dieses Systems.Die Verarbeitung des ganz aus Flugzeugaluminium und Carbon gebauten Sliders ist tadellos, der CS80CM ist sehr gut ausgestattet: sowohl an den beiden Seitenteilen, als auch in der Mittelplatte gibt es zahllose 1/4" und 3/8" Gewinde, um den Slider mittig auf einem oder an den Seiten auf zwei Stativen aufzubocken. Darüber hinaus sind höhenverstellbare, gummierte und fein rastbare Füße vorhanden, um ihn auf einer flachen Ebene, zum Beispiel einem Tisch, zu platzieren. Die Friktionsschraube ermöglicht es, den Slider von fest fixiert bis hin zu sehr fließenden Fahrten flüssig einzustellen. Eine Libelle unterstützt beim exakten Ausrichten des Systems.

重めのD850を乗せても、びくともしない剛性感とマット仕上げのカーボンファイバー製シャフトがとても高級感がありカッコいいです。全体の質感も高く、しっかりしています。ベアリングの動きもスムーズで静かです。一眼レフで動画も撮ろうと思わせてくれます。さすがNEEWERの製品はコスパがよいと思います。

Ok, I've been testing this out for a long time and haven't written a review because I'm torn on it. If you are doing some very basic b-roll or transitions, this is great. It's pretty smooth, although I have had a few times that I'm moving really slowly and it seems to be a little rougher than I'd like. Small vibrations showed up in the video. Not sure if that was from me, or from the rig, but it's repeatable at low-speed.Where I'm confused is that I also have several gimbals, and they are the smoothest way to get good video. At the cost of this, roughly around $100, you can get pretty good quality, but for a bit more money, you can get the ultimate in smoothness and get a gimbal. That also gives you more flexibility on when and where you use it.Now, this is also static, meaning that you can't move it around, so that's another negative on using a slider. Are there places you can use this that you can't use a gimbal? I can't think of one, but this doesn't require batteries, has a very limited learning curve, and isn't something that's likely to die if you get it wet like a gimbal.So, that leads me back to the beginning. I'm torn on who to recommend this to. It's nice for what it is, and if you're set on getting a slider, this is a good place to start, although more expensive ones are going to be smoother at lower speeds. Overall, this is pretty nice for what it is.
