Glidetrack or Dolly?

[mastiboulance]

Has anybody tried this glidetrack thing? How much are dolly tracks for the tripod in comparison?

Build your own glidetrack with the same parts for a 1/4 of the price. Glidetrack just uses the IGUS rails and carriage and claims it as their own.

You'll definitely want to check out our Pegasus LTS systems...or the Ballare Dolly. You'll find video overviews of both systems here:

If you're looking for hands-on, and you're going to NAB...booth C4782

Cheers,
Dennis.

This is true, but I have to give credit to the newcomer's video which actually states that it's using off the shelf IGUS stuff whereas the Glidetrack doesn't.

Long live Igus!

went to the IndiSlider website for the first time since getting my IGUS/zazaslider....looks like IGUS track and carriage (carriage differs slightly i think), does it not?

what's funny is that i believe since "DryLin" is a patent pending product, wouldn't companies reselling the stuff be obligated to mention that?...i don't know how it works, but it would seem so.

and while i'm thinking about it, why is this thread in the 35mm room?
