Okay, so I have dusted some of my video stuff of after moving and I'm getting to the point where I want to start putting it to use again. To get to the point, I have a 4ft? Carbon Rhino I bought awhile back and it is nice an smooth but I found 4ft to be extremely long trying to keep things smooth.
I am after some different perspectives that a motor/belt will afford me as well as just increasing the smoothness. I got sick and tired of setting up a great composition only to get pissed off at myself not being able to execute the movement! Or, when the movement was executed on some longer runs I had to sift through so many takes to further piss me off about the situation. Haha.
So, I recently looked at Rhino's site bc I feel like I remembered them having a cable system for this slider and someone making a motor for it. Well, I could never "re-find" that motor setup and Rhino has moved on to a new version now.
Can anyone shed some light on my situation? I am to the point where I am thinking of selling it (pending on what it's actually worth) bc if I use something like this, I want something with more control and repeatable results.
The only thing I recall is emotimo tb3 being used at some point. Is this the only route?
P.S.
I searched but not to the ends of the earth. Unsure if people get furious here or not. If so, I apologize in advance.
