Extreme portability

So large on location, so small in your luggage. Easily disassemble BDSlider suits to your carry-on luggage. With less than 5kg of total kit weight BDSlider can be taken easily to the most remote locations!

Steel or Carbon Fibre track

There are two different types of rods available: robust steel or lightweight carbon fibre tracks.

All depends on your requirements.

Various controllers

As every other DitoGear™ motion control device, BDSlider can be used with any of our motion controllers, ranging from battlefield-tested OmniController to state-of-the art multiaxis wireless Evolution.

Uncompromised precision

Why sacrifice precision for portability? BDSlider meets the same, extreme performance precision standards as all other DitoGear™ motion control devices, such as OmniSlider, OmniHead or LensDrive. Digitally encoded servo motors and controllers we use allow for perfect motion repeatability and positioning precision below 0.1mm. Long story short, not only you get extremely smooth movements, but also you can successfully use Modulo for multi-pass shots or special effects.

Live action, TL & stopmotion

BDSlider is suitable for working in any operation mode – use it as a manual, unmotorized dolly pushed by hand, control it with ease and precision with the joystick or program sophisticated live action, timelapse or stop motion shots using one of DitoGear™ motion controllers

Low Power Consumption

BDSlider runs off any 12DC power source. Whether it’s a 7Ah gel type
battery, your favourite 3rd party professional video power source or
even a set of AA Accus, you’ll be amazed with impressive power
efficiency of this beauty.
