Toprig 24''/60cm Motorized Video Slider, Aluminum Alloy, Silent & Stable, NP-F Battery, Compatible with Camera, DSLR, Mirrorless, Compact, Action Cam

When I turned on this device initially, it acted crazy, and nothing I did seemed to help. I chalked it up to a malfunctioning product. Accsoon voluntarily reached out after my disappointed review and offered up some troubleshooting advice that fixed everything. They also offered to send me a replacement, but luckily I no longer need it. Now my slider works properly. The slider is super cool, and most importantly, the company clearly cares about customer service. Very appreciative of their outreach and now my cool new piece of tech!

Excellent product for the price

Motor is not strong enough to use pointed even slightly down. Camera will slide fast if pointed down and not held.

This review is for the Accsoon Toprig Camera 60cm Motorized Video Slider. Overall this is a good option for a cost effective slider that has acceptable performance. It does have a few short comings that are manageable but should be discussed. For my testing, I mounted a video head onto the slider and used a Nikon Z9 with a 105mm f/2.8 macro lens to move around a lens cap on a piece of cedar wood I was using as a prop. The first part of the video is shot with my mobile phone showing the motion and the second part shows the camera output. Also note that I kept the audio on the second half to demonstrate the noise with the motor. The entire video was sped up to 150% to keep the time as short as possible to show the issues. Breaking it down into a list of Pros and Cons: Pros: 1. Solid construction. This unit has a well made frame, a solid base, and connection points for braces to allow you to add additional support to your work. 2. With a little bit of work, you can swap between a panning shot to a pano shot to a centered product like shot. Its not obvious at first but once you get it down, it works really well. 3. You can program and run the device with an app on your phone. Its pretty simple and easy to use. 4. You can control speed easily and opt to put in a repeat, so you can make a few takes to catch the right moment. 5. Comes with a nice nylon carrying case. Cons: 1. There's not an included power supply or battery. Why? A cord is like $10 retail and probably $2 wholesale. Just include it. 2. The entire range of the slider is really not usable for a smooth shot. Have a look at the attached video and you can see at the ends there is a very unnatural jitter in the motion at the ends of travel. 3. The motor does produce an audible sound when you operate the unit. Not loud, but noticeable when you have a camera mic'd up. So in summary, this slider does perform adequately but as demonstrated, the entire range of the slider isn't smooth or usable for shots. There's no power supply or battery included which is just silly. All this said, I've learned to work around the end points of the slider being unusable but that shouldn't be the case. I would say the slider is, usable but not great and that's unfortunate.
