Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can this be used with a Series 3 Gitzo tripod with a pro DSLR and 600 mm lens?

A: It will easily support the weight and works with many tripods with rubber or spiked feet. This dolly's universal design allows compatibility with most tripod systems from a variety of manufacturers.

Q: 2. will it work with E-Image EK60AAM Tripod (B&H # EIEK60AAM)?

A: I would be of the opinion that the W4DS will not properly fit the EK60AAM. The rod on the Davis & Sanford W4DS that the tripod leg foot rests on is convex while the E-Image EK60AAM E-Image dollies have a concave rod. So while the rubber hold downs may fit the tripods foot tab, I think the leg/dolly interface would wobble and not be solid.

Q: 3. Will the Glide Gear or Proaim track wheels work on this dolly?

A: We are not aware of track wheels that will work on this dolly. You may want to invest in the Glide Gear SYL-960 Floor/Track Hybrid Tripod Dolly instead as it comes with both standard casters and track wheels. https://bhpho.to/2tCfHBx

Q: 8. I have the Davis & Sanford Provista 7518 Tripod with FM18 Head. Will this dolly fit the tripod legs at the fully extended position only or will it fit at any length the legs are extended to? I will more than like use it with the tripod legs halfway extended and just wanted to make sure it will fit my needs before ordering. Thanks.

A: The W3 Universal Folding Dolly with 3 Wheels is an excellent buy BUT like anything else is never personalize to our particular needs. Coming from the old generation of photographers where we always jimmy rigged or modified so I went right to it. My needs were, I'm 5'5 and I needed the dolly to waltz room to room taking the least amount of space. So I shorten the dolly's extension by 3(at the base end not wheel end). Now I could have bought the Telescoping extension type from another model but I didn't want to fuss with other problems they may bring and when I setup the tripod and dolly it must be done quickly and seamlessly. Now for your answer, the dolly's sliders that clamp the tripod accommodate any height BUT the extended 3 inches at the wheels, I always banged my foot with it and man did it hurt. Decisions, decisions.

Q: 9. What ball heads will attach to this tripod, if any?

A: This tripod has a 75mm bowl, so any 75mm ball head should work.

Q: 10. Does this dolly produce audible squeakiness on video? I'll be using a shotgun mic on a boompole for the audio, and I'm just wondering if it'll be loud enough to catch on the shotgun mic.

A: No. I have used this on concrete floors and wood flooring and had no issue with noise from the wheels on either occasion.
