In this video I will be showing you how to get butter smooth sliding video footage courtesy of the Zeapon Micro 2 Plus Motorized Slider. A camera slider moves your camera along in a fixed direction at a fixed speed which is what provides that perfectly smooth footage. The Zeapon uses a fluid design which allows it to be butter smooth even when pushing manually, but when you combined it with the powerful motor it’s just incredible what you can do!
The Zeapon Micro 2 Plus Slider w/ Motor goes for about $445 US, but you can get just the slider without the motor for $259 US or With the Pons and title Motors for $999 US.
Please feel free to ask questions, and thanks for watching! Jay

Conclusions
I’m really happy with the Zeapon Micro 2 Plus Motorized Slider and I can’;t recommend it enough to those who want butter smooth video footage. As you saw from the tons of sample video this slider provides absolutely killer footage.
The build quality and design of this unit is top notch as well, so the cost to benefit ratio is 100% worth the investment in my opinion. I plan on using this slider for tons projects in the future and honestly can’t wait to try out some time-lapse photography with motion and more.
That is about it for this review, but please feel free to ask questions below and if you have this slider bye sure to let me know what you think of it! All the best, Jay
