I guess you can put a standard hand-held gimbal on top, set up PTZ tracking there and sync it with the slider manually.

Be ware of the Pons PT. I bought a micro 2 and pons PT combo a year and half ago and had to send it back because the Pons couldn't support the load of my GH5, which is small in comparison to most cameras. I was well under the weight limit, but the motor didn't sound good at all as it tried rotating my cam. It was just too much stress on the Pons. Great concept, but it needs a stronger motor.

Great video! However in all the videos I have watched I have only seen time-lapse and static objects. So far no one has done tracking tests with moving objects to check if the movement is smooth. Can this systems track moving objects such as birds, planes., cars, drones?

Relatively the M3 motor is not louder than others, as you should keep in mind, that it's travel speed is twice of the Micro 2 Plus motor and 4x times faster than eg the Smarttna slider, so when reducing the speed the noise comes down signivicantly. The problem I see is the weight of the M3 series, so I bought the M3 1000 motorized version for very long travel shots on professional productions but kept my motorized Micro2 Plus for traveling as it is much lighter than the M3 series one with the same travel

I have the version 2 of this slider. The wheels that transport the carriage cracked after 3 uses, making it useless. Zeapon offers "free" replacement parts through the company you bought it through for $30 in shipping for up to one year after purchase, but the replacement parts are not available anywhere otherwise. This is a company that lures you in with great features, but then makes products as cheap as possible and just releases a new version once enough people complain and they are forced to fix the issue. Terrible company, buyer beware.

Great review! Is the purchase link correct? I see it leads to M1000 version, which is manual without the M3 motor. At any point did you need to contact Zeapon customer service? With a few exceptions (DJI, Anker), I find that a lot of Chinese companies have poor CS. I tried to ask them a question through their website contact page a few times, and got error message: “Something went wrong”. This doesn’t instill confidence in slider’s longevity, if any issue comes up after Amazon’s return period.

This has to be one of the best reviews on this slider, thanks man for the insight. This seems like it’s worth the extra cost over some of the base sliders you see on Amazon, for several reasons. You mentioned the loudness perhaps being issue for interviews, and had a question on that: think this would work as B-cam with longer lens, and lav mic on subject? Or is this thing a real howler? Appreciate all your content, thx again!

@@thefilmalliance Good idea. I checked it again with the motor only, w/o connection to the slider. There is no change, identical sound. Checked with all three motors. It means the motor unit is responsible for the noises by 100%. It doesn't sound like defect, it's just loud. I noticed much better behavior using batteries instead of direct power supply.
