Guys,
Currently doing timelapses using LRT Pro Timer 2.5 and qDSLRDashboard/ControlMyCamera, mainly with a 5D MkIV.
I'm now in the market for some more, and looking for a slider. I noticed huge price differences, with known brands starting at 1000+ EUR and much more, and on the other hand stuff on Amazon at arround 200 GBP...
So, what makes the difference and what should I be looking at when selecting my slider? Things that come to my mind:
- Sturdyness
- Ability to be triggered by LRT Pro Timer, Promote Control, ...
- Upgradable (E.g. add additional panning axis later)
Also, any opinion on the moveshootmove.com rotator and astro tracker? Would that be a panning option combined with a slider ?
Thnx for your advise!
