Hi,
I"m very new to film making, having been interested in photography for many years, I recently purchased a Panasonic GH2 so I can experiment with film making.
I really love the look of slider shots and would like to be able to do them, but i'm on a tight budget, ideally of around £100.
I have zero DIY skills so making one is not an option for me.
I've noticed this one on eBay which seems decent, but as i have no experience or knowledge of sliders I don't really no how suitable it is.

There is also this one from amazon for a similar price.

I would want to put a ball socked tripod head on the slider and attach it to a tripod with a head on it so i can use it at different angles, I would be using it with a GH2 with various native lenses and some Nikon lenses using an adapter.
Any thoughts appreciated, thanks for reading,
Julie
