The last group buy is nearly over. Our ProLine steadicam rigs are getting finalized these weeks.

So it's time for a new group buy. This time let's get a nice slider / mini dolly. I'll share here on my blog, like the last time, all the information about the different offers and especially password protected the prices.

Send me a pm or email to get the password.

I contacted already some manufactures... write me, if you know any other manufacture I should contact:

MYT
Dito Gear
Kessler
Glidecam
Dana Dolly
IndieDollySystems
Cinevate
Floatcam

Cheers
David

Update #1: The DitoGear offer for the OmniSlider arrived. You can find it on my blog.

Update #2: All offers are in. You can now vote on your favorite offer. I'll contact next week the elected manufacturer to start the group buy. Please vote only if you're serious about purchasing a slider.
 
David, as I said I was to organize the Group Buy for Dito Gear (Only) but since you did that, and you did that with a great Group Buy offering I might add, I am happy to let you take over and can't recommend the Dito Slider enough, if and when possible and I have any shots of it in use I will share!

Or another one I've been looking at recently is the Portajib Explorer from Losmandy - similar to the Floatcam idea... but won't take as much weight as the DolycraneHD.

I contacted Floatcam, since the DollyCrane HD is for sure a great product (just a little pricy). The Porta-Jib looks a little bit fragile, to be honest.

MYT is closed for the weekend, but they are interested and we have a Skype conference on Tuesday to discuss the options for a possible group buy.

You almost need two group buys...one for the more expensive systems $2.5k and above and one for more affordable ones.
I personally really like the Kessler products especially for the price/performance ratio...
 
Waiting on MYT

Ketch,

Could you link us some pictures of your Dito Slider in use? I'm having a hard time understanding exactly how large it is (looks extremely thin in the photos they have on their site).
 
Hey David,

going for another one, ey? Good job! I'm just posting to subscribe. Wanting a dolly now for a long time, and will see what's what!
Thanks for starting this, mate!
