Awesome review!! I've been searching for the perfect slider for my filmmaking needs, and this video provided the most comprehensive and informative analysis I could ask for. Overall, I'm beyond impressed with this slider, and you have definitely convinced me that it's the perfect addition to my filmmaking gear. Kudos to Craig for delivering such an engaging and informative video! I can't wait to get my hands on this and start capturing some incredible footage.
Thanks for an excellent demonstration and explanation of the slider. I do very little product videography, but I think the slider would be a valuable addition for anyone who does because it would help draw attention to the product’s details. It also seems like it would be very useful in real estate videography (which I do) to give slight camera movement while videoing different areas of a house, like in the kitchen to showcase a nice cooktop. The Zeapon Micro 3 slider seems to be quiet and wouldn’t distract from a video. Thanks again for your great review!
Great review! I was hoping Zeapon was going to give the legs more height adjustment for the 3, but I guess not. All these slider companies always put legs on their sliders that only work with tabletop configurations as if everyone that uses them is shooting in a controlled, studio environment. For those of us shooting out in nature, shooting timelapse in the backcountry, shooting in grass, on unlevel ground, shooting out in urban environments or on cracked urban concrete/asphalt, these legs are pretty useless. I always want to shoot low-angled shots, and so a tripod is often too high for my purposes. I'd love to see some adjustable legs that let you level the slider about 4"-6" off the ground. One issue I'm always running into when shooting outdoors, is that the slider may sit too close to some grass or rocks on the ground, and the carriage will then hit them.
Thanks for a great video!. I have a question: Does it make a difference what tension setting you have the dial on when you're using the motor? It seems intuitive that you'd set it to have the least tension when using the motor, but maybe the motor disables the tension knob, but I thought I'd ask. Thanks in advance!
Glad you enjoyed it! From my experience, the tension knob doesn’t adjust anything while the motor is active, it’s essentially just for manual usage. And yes, I turn it to the least amount of tension when the motor is active. I almost always have it set to 1.
So I just bought one and the motor is incredibly loud! You can barely hear the motor in your clip but the one I have is so noisy I could never shoot audio at the same time!
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, I have been happy with the 700 length. For me, it seems certainly lengthy enough for any idea I've had for it so far, but also not so big that it become an annoyance to lug around.
Great review. Have you noticed any play that could cause the system to vibrate? Especialy between both rails. I have seen some bending upper rails on other video and I wonder whether it does not cause vibration?

Great Review and comparison . I Have been eyeing this slider for a while just waiting for it to go on sale to pick one up .

@@letthelightintv Thanks for taking the time to reply! I appreciate you! 🙏🏼

Really?! I’d contact customer support about that because that has not been my experience at all!
Hello. Good video review. Are you happy with E700 length? I am hesitating between the 3 models. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!

I have not noticed any vibration, nor any play at all. I’ve not seen any bending either, everything is snug and smooth.
👍
Where tests? 😢
Just got my micro 3. IT IS SOOOOOO LOUD
