Best slider - no budget compromise

[macgregor]

Hi all, what would be the best solution for a slider (no motor) for a DSLR if money was not a concern? I am looking for something solid and professional.

I really like the MYT slider. I don't own it , but now I'm thinking. The rental shop I use has it and the build is amazing.

We are the first company to use Extruded Hi-grade Aluminum hard coat anodized tracks for a heavy-duty Glider/Slider.

LOL, typical Marketing-Speak. Actually those are normal Igus rails but to but. Nice build though.

I guess I would prefer the Kessler Cineslider.

I have only used a couple (I have NOT used the Kessler Cineslider), but I really liked the Cinevate slider we have (Atlas 200 Camera Slider).

I liked the Cinevate FLT enough to buy one after Cinegear. Portable enough for travel, nice starts and stops.
That said, I'm thinking about selling it to fund new equipment purchases in 2012.

Yes. The absolute best, in my opinion. I almost always ask the Producer to budget for one when I'm brought on as DP, since the Original Sliders are so much smaller than a Fisher or doorway dolly.
