Matthews complements your creativity by enabling smooth camera movement with this 29" Slider. Both grip and operator friendly, this lightweight and sturdy camera platform features a modular design for offset camera rigging and maximized compatibility. It is fully field adjustable with Allen keys and a 7/16" open wrench.

It can work upside-down for low-angle shots, can support more than one carriage at a time for A and B camera shots, and has positive lock at 90° when in use on most dollies (Chapman, Fisher, Panther, etc.). Each carriage can support up to 175 pounds, and the system uses oversized proprietary roller wheels for fast and quiet movement. Fully factory assembled, the system will accept any gear head / fluid head / camera combination and come complete with the necessary mounting accessories and hardware.

The slider is completely modular, allowing offset mounting of the rotating Mitchell base to extend the reach of the system. This feature may be used for tabletop, car interior, and many other situations. It not only gives you smooth camera movement, but it also adds stability in otherwise challenging locked-off positions. The slider gives you many options for solid and quiet camera movement and comes with numerous 3/8"-16 tapped holes for rigging and securing. It is conveniently sized to fit in some rifle-sized hard cases.
