Might not be the right forum for this question, and if there's a forum better to talk about hardware let me know!

But, what is a good, inexpensive slider / pocket dolly? I guess i'm thinking in the $200 range? I'd go up a bit. I looked at Kesslercrane and they look nice, but if i can find something that works well for less that'd be great.

Wouldn't have much of a rig. Just the FS700 and lens.

Any suggestions? Thanks.
 
Quiet, smooth, inexpensive, lighter payload, Pocket Dolly. Heavier payload Cineslider. Buy support gear that will last a lifetime rather than buying cheap and buying twice or three times.
 
I've did the DIY Igus/ Zaza several years ago and it's really good. It's small, slides good and it's much cheaper than one's that you buy.

I modified an Igus slider with a motor and a Dynamic Perception controller and it's a great time lapse dolly. The best part is they are really small and easy to pack into your luggage for traveling.
 
konova slider is pretty sweet! with a 501 head.. BAM!.... but that can be around $200-500 depending on where you get it, used or new. :] Cheers!
 
I bought an IndiSlider Pro used for $250. With teh 100mm and 75 mm adapter. Nice unit!
