Gimbals vs Sliders

Фильм және анимация

Gimbals and sliders are both terrific options for adding dynamic camera movements to your footage. However, I don’t believe a gimbal can out-right replace a slider, they both have their own strengths and weaknesses. Each excels at differing shots and each delivers a noticeably different look or feeling. #Gimbal #Slider #Cinematography

    I was looking for a way to add some dynamic movement into my b-roll, and I've never gotten good results from a gimbal. This is precisely what I needed to see. Wonderful results and a more precise, methodical shooting process. That fits my style perfectly.

    Thanks for the very informative presentation. After watching this video, I combined the two. I attached my Moza Aircross 2 to my slider. I am using a Smallrig Mounting Plate for the Aircross 2 and using "Arca Swiss" type plates and clamps and a Manfrotto MHXPRO-BHQ2 ballhead, and the gimbal is solid, well balanced, and has full movement. I usually mount it on my half ball Hi-hat, which I have customized by adding three 5 section monopods, to make it functional as a full sized tripod as well.

    I watched the video with great interest. I was planning on renting a gimbal for a shoot I have in a courtroom some time in the near future. Definitely wanted moving shots. But having just watched your video, I am rethinking my approach. I think having a slider along as well would greatly enhance those very slow moving shots of the juror's box/chairs and railing. Thanks very much.

    Thanks for your encouragement! I'm currently designing & building a 1500mm long custom designed three axis motorized heavier duty slider, primarily intended for use on "short film productions". Captivating images and exciting footage being the end goal... with some luck and continued perseverance... I already have a Zhiyun Crane 3S gimbal, but it's SO HEAVY, especially with my Canon C100 MkII (or any other camera) mounted with lens, etc. Sadly, It's not as productive for me as I'd hoped because of the weight and complexities of operation.

    Hi @Francis Garcia - if you're happily using the Ronin-SC and are able to successfully capture the shots you're envisioning - it may not be necessary to also have a slider. Having said that, a slider is a sound investment that quickly and easily adds great production value to your footage. I personally really do enjoy using the Rhino Slider, though it doesn't need the motorized motion control system - and passing on this system would save you a few dollars. I also very much like how the Rhino Slider is a system, in that you can purchase individual pieces and slowly upgrade the slider as you're able to afford more pieces of their system. Hope this helps 👍👍👍

  • @neilfisher

    @neilfisher

    4 жыл бұрын

    Thanks for the feedback @Never Wifed 😃 The slider used throughout this video is the Rhino Slider Evo. To create push and pulls without revealing the slider, you simply place the camera on an arm and attach the arm to the slider - this way the camera hangs over the front of the slider. Alternatively, using a focal length that isn't overly wide will also allow you to push and pulls without the slider entering the frame. The Rhino Slider Evo has many optional components - the motor can be purchased separately if desired. Hope this helps 👍👍👍

    Great comparison emphasising why you should use the best tool for the job. I personally like to use the head only of my Ronin SC on my motorised slider. Why fork out big bucks on a pan tilt head for your slider when you have all the same functionality and more on the gimbal? ok so i have to hit two play buttons at the start . I am fortunately endowed with ten fingers!

  • @neilfisher

    @lacenaepronta - that's a great question and certainly something that is often experienced with lower quality sliders. Fortunately, the carbon fibre rails of this slider don't flex when the camera system reaches either end. I've used this system with a Canon 1DX mark II and 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS II... which is not in the least a light weight setup - and the rails remained straight and flat the entire time 👍👍👍

    Went thru the same evolution... got the Moza Air II with the Nikon Z6 Filmmakers kit, so I took it for a whirl.. but ended up getting the Rhino and using the Slider MUCH more!!! In fairness, I’m shooting a play, in studio, and need to repeat patterns of movement and focus... whole I would still use a gimbal for run and gun, outdoor, action shots... but - even that - is much easier using an iPhone 11 on my Zhiyun or Osmo (than trying to balance the Z6 every time I take off the lens cap!!! And one has to ask, is the 4K quality of the iPhone WORTH shooting 4K on the Z6???

    I would like to know if you made your own "timecode" bar at the bottom of the frame. I'd like to start doing this, but would HATE to have to input all that information every time. After throwing on some "cinematic" aspect ratio black bars, I could still have the info there and frame up a nice useable shot. Can you please tell me how you did that? Thanks. And thank god for your channel. Finally someone showing how to film without all the hipster gimmicks being sold to people trying to genuinely learn a craft and NOT look like a Peter MacKinnon rip-off.

    @MIguel Trejo there is no easy means of adding EXIF data to these videos. I go through the entire editing process and after deciding upon which pieces of B-roll to use, I'll add the associated EXIF information. And remember... adding black bars to increase the aspect ratio doesn't increase how 'cinematic' a sequence feels #HipsterGimmick. Just spend more time ensuring a shot looks great directly out of the camera. 👍👍👍

    This is exactly why I chose to combine the Ronin RS 2, the Syrp Genie II with a slider to always get perfect shots and still have the option of having a gimbal on its own when needed and all of that was less expensive than what a full package from Rhino or Edelkrone costs...

    I agree with a lot of points but I'm also going to nuance a few. Setting up a gimbal does take time. However once you get the hang of it and if you have a gimbal with axis locks it really isn't that big a deal. I think I can balance most of my setups within 1 to 2 minutes. If your setup isn't near the weight limit of the gimbal you have a fair bit of leeway anyways as the motors can easily overcome a bit of unbalance. Will drain the batteries faster but that's alright. With a decent autofocus lens and camera there's quite a few shots you can do just on auto-focus. Especially Sony with its face detection does a good job when shooting hoomans. When you use... here we go again... a Sony camera you can easily change the settings of your camera on your phone if need be. The phone than can be put on your gimbal with a little holder. That being said switching lenses is definitely annoying. Ideally you need a shot-list so you can shoot everything that needs a specific lens one after another to minimize rebalancing. When it comes to sliders (I'm quite new to them) setting them up in general is quite simple however specific shots require actual setup time and planning as well and especially when indoors where space is limited setting up a bigger slider (requiring 2 tripods) can be a challenge on its own. So where the slider indoor can be tricky to position the minimal footprint of the gimbal means you can use it in nearly any space. Sliders also aren't that much cheaper than gimbals. Considering gimbals can mimic more move types they have a certain value. That being said: the reproducibility and consistency of a slider can't be beat.

    That video was very well made. Your nature shots are amazing. However, that double shot and overlapping difference between gimbal and slider is moot as you only need one single shot for any film you make. Maybe for actual subjects like people running or some choreography, you need more precise and flawless moves.

  • @neilfisher

    @neilfisher

    4 жыл бұрын

    Thanks @montrealfilmguy 👍 However, I don't think the comparison is moot. As you said, there are many scenarios when filming talent exchanging dialogue or preforming choreographed movements would greatly benefit from accurate shots being repeated multiple times. Admittedly, using a stationary rotting log isn't the best example to highlight this capacity, but... it's all I've got 🤪
