21Nov Jag35 New 2′ and 3′ Video Sliders
From Vimeo member Freddy Cordova, a look at Jag35’s latest product – a video camera slider. A roller bearing block rides on two rails, requires two stands for elevated use, and optional leveling legs for ground use. Options for length are 2′ and 3′. You can check out pricing over at the Jag35.com website.
Jag35 has excellent quality and aesthetics in their products, but so far the price is on the high side, and still only has about the same functionality as the JuicedLink DIY Slider (here). The JuicedLink is cheaper because it does not come with any rods, but opens up the option for you to choose what type and length you need. Of course the Jag35 has the overall better finish. I know they were working on a motorized version a few months ago, so we’ll see how where it goes from here.

Can’t wait until they come up with the 2 next logical slider products, the 1 inch and the 10 mile slider.

I agree with Serge. I don’t want to carry around two tripods just to use this slider. I think they should offer an optional bottom plate for central mounting.

And it looks flimsy.

No thanks!

I agree with Patrick,
it looks too flimsy. Not sure what kind of rod, but it looked like it would bend and break fairly easy.
The Konova is a better deal and better build quality.
