Product Information

This tripod features a built-in bubble level, and it works with a 75mm bowl base. I am going to review this product in the same way I review any product. It doesn’t matter how much it costs, who makes it, or where it comes from. Every product gets reviewed in the exact same independent way. How much does it weigh? If you have both stages of the legs adjusted and use the tripod at height then there is certainly a lot more flex, especially towards the bottom of the legs. Sundries - Four 150mm-diameter wheels with rubber tyres, 1m of M12 studding (diameter to suit wheels) with nuts and washers, six M8x75 bolts, 75mm butt hinge, epoxy resin glue, 25mm woodscrews.

If you compare the work of professional cinematographers in film and television to the litany of amateur short films that play at festivals around the world, you’re likely to notice one crucial difference about the camera movement. In amateur pieces, the camera is almost always either handheld or limited to a tripod with pans and tilts as moves. Rarely do you see a no-budget movie with long, smooth camera moves. Yet those moves are everywhere in cinema and TV. Rubber wheels tend to roll more smoothly than nylon wheels. FAQ Q. How can I tell if a dolly will work with my tripod? Size: Because the legs adjust, tripod size generally isn’t a huge consideration for dollies. See the FAQ section for more on this.Tying your tripod down with straps or bungees is also a good idea, in case you bump against something or have to stop suddenly. On television in particular, static shots are often avoided for fear of losing the attention span of viewers. In independent films, camera moves are often employed as a plea to the audience to accept their work as professional. Both of these approaches are rife with folly.

The head plate slot has built-in screw holes and the bowl base comes with 1/4”-20 threaded holes for accessory attachment. The built-in damping and balancing system enables 360° horizontal and +90°/-75° vertical movements. There are also 3/8″-16 threaded holes in the head base to support most tripods, arms, sliders, and other accessories with 3/8″-16 screws. Adjustable: The legs of a tripod dolly should be adjustable; the greater the range, the more tripods the dolly can work with.I was pleasantly surprised by the overall build quality. It is decently made despite a lot of affordable and lightweight materials being used. The tripod legs are made out of Aluminum Alloy. For the most part, this list still looked to be in good shape, leaving us with little need to make any major changes to it, although we did still manage to find a few places to brush up on things, beginning by eliminating the Cowboy Studio Max, which previously held a low spot on our list, but was no longer available during this update. The weight of a tripod dolly is also extremely important. If it’s too heavy, it’ll be tough to move and a pain to transport. If it’s too light, it won’t provide you with enough stability to keep your movements as smooth as they should be. Ideally, you can find something that’s light enough to carry around, and that also has a large enough center plate that you can easily lay a sandbag on it to add weight and stability to your shot. Motivate Your Movement Leave your fully assembled setup on top of it and whenever the skies are clear you can simply roll the whole unit into position.
