Thanks guys. Charles, I used a Nikon 24mm f2.8 on that shot.

Highly technical question here. How could that kid wear short under those conditions? :huh:
Nice footage.

I worked on a commercial that the mostly use a very nice homemade slider.
I guess that a wide angle lens is how you get the most out of it.
 
Disjecta hi,

Beautiful shots....I'm thinking of buying the indislider myself...could you tell me what kind of tripod and head are you using...what's ball head diameter....and how well and easily it fits your indislider...

1) Threading was off when mating to my 100mm ball. Turns out, it didnt match Bogen's threading exactly. Ended up with a threaded female end on the slider. Tim advised me on a temporary solution and is going to send me a new one with proper threading once I return the old one. Doesnt seem to be a problem with everyone, but it has been reported to Tim at least on one other occasion. Looks like hes identified and fixed the prob.

There's a bag of brass parts included with the Bogen 100mm adapter. Take the Bogen adapter apart and replace the inappropriately sized brass part with a different one until you find the right fit.
 
can you slide "in & out"?

can you slide "in & out"?

I couldn't recall any in the video, and my connection is playing up atm, but have you used the slider in the other direction?
ie: tracking in or out, as opposed to across. Just curious to see (and if it's mechanically possible) how it comes up?
Would be nice for closeups, and maybe another reason to opt for slider over dolly for convenience.

Also, how do you slide the slider? Is there a friction, and you 'tap' it like a tripod pan, or is it a wheel, etc..?

And is it just me, or does the Score feel very much like a piece that could be composed by a band playing at a soldiers post in a World War II epic.

Thanks OSB, I'll check that out.

I cant wait to get back out with this thing again. Seeing Dsjecta's footage is motivating.
 
Disjecta, seein' as how you used wide's on this piece and have been using wides, have you been experiencing any edge sharpness issues? It all seems pretty sharp to me, but I might be missing something.

I really want an indieSlider now. =\
