Review Summary

Every time I use it everyone in the room crowds around the monitor. It's really great, but it's not perfect. The biggest problem is that it only has 2 keyframes right now and that can make complex moves and focus pulls difficult, but it is really amazing for interviews. A firmware update with 5 keyframes is supposed to come sometime soon... Fingers crossed! It's super quiet and handles my striped down FX9, but it really likes the A7Siii better for anything other than a talking head. It's super simple to operate and doesn?t require an app or smartphone to run it. It's built really well and still relatively lightweight. I have yet to try a vertical move, but I'm imagining that it should handle them fine with the high torque motor. Time will tell.

An all-in-one solution for dynamic and professional filming, the Ultimate Slider Bundle provides a comprehensive 4-axis slider setup capable of handling a range of shooting scenarios. From capturing engaging interviews with a 15lb cinema camera to executing a vertical day-to-night time-lapse with a mirrorless setup, this bundle is designed to meet all your filming needs.
The heart of this bundle is the 42" Pro Slider, featuring interchangeable rails that allow you to adjust the weight, length, and load capacity of your setup without the need for a completely new system. The Pro 42" Rails are ideal for interview setups with heavier cameras, offering five times more torsional rigidity than previous versions, thanks to the new dual Tripod Quick Mount plates. This feature ensures less twisting when filming with heavy setups, enhancing the versatility of your equipment.
The Rhino Arc II, a compact 4-axis motorized pan/tilt/focus head, is included in the bundle. It can support up to 15lbs of equipment and can be mounted to a tripod or your Rhino Slider. With its ultra-quiet motors, you can capture dynamic 4-axis shots without worrying about noise interference in your audio track. The Arc II also features an intuitive iOS app that allows you to create up to 5 keyframes and play them back at different speeds.
The bundle also includes the Rhino Focus, an electronic follow focus that works seamlessly with the Rhino Arc II. This accessory allows you to execute perfect focus pulls, adding more dynamism to your shots. The Focus can be installed in seconds on a 15mm carbon fiber rail, ensuring you hit your focus point every time.
To cater to different filming requirements, the bundle comes with a High Speed Slider Motor for fast slides and a High Torque Slider Motor for vertical slides with up to a 10lb payload. Both motors can be easily attached to any Rhino Slider and connected to the Rhino Arc II with the included RJ45 cable.
Finally, the bundle includes 24" Carbon Slider Interchangeable Rails, which are short, light, and super rigid, making them great for most everyday shoots. Like the Pro 42" Rails, these also feature the new Tripod Quick Mount System for easy mounting.
In summary, the Ultimate Slider Bundle is a robust, reliable, and versatile solution for professional-grade filming and photography. Its durable construction and user-friendly design make it a valuable addition to any filmmaker's toolkit.
