Edelkrone announces second generation Wing, Wing Pro & SliderONE Pro with time bending motion control

Edelkrone’s SliderONE, whilst small, is still quite mighty. The SliderONE was introduced back in 2015, and it’s proven to be popular with those who own one. Last year, they added motors and motion control. Now the whole thing’s been updated with a slightly longer SliderONE Pro. But it’s also received some pretty cool app updates, too, offering some great motion control options to let bend time to your will.

The Edeklrone Wing also sees a second generation update, along with a new Wing PRO. While not a slider, it offers slider-like motion, allowing for a lot of movement in something that takes up very little space. This, too, has seen an update, offering higher load capacity, as well as more stabilised movements.

Edelkrone adds motors and motion control from your phone to the SliderONE

Edelkrone’s popular SliderONE is a pretty elegant and well made slider. Introduced at the end of 2015, the SliderONE is perhaps a little on the short side for some. But, when you only need to move small distances, it does its job extremely well. One thing it has lacked thus far, though, is any kind of motor or motion control system.

That all changes now with Edelkrone’s announcement of the new Motion Module. As one expect, it adds a motor to your slider, so you can get automate some of your process. Motors let you get smoother, cleaner, more even slides, and a whole bunch of other potential features. That’s where Edelkrone’s app comes into play, offering a wealth of options for both timelapse and video shooters.

A 6″ Slider Provide ‘Just Enough’ Movement

Can a 6 Inch Slider (15cm) be a working tool for videographers? Turkish gear maker Edelkrone says yes and putting their development money where their mouth is. Edelkrone just introduces Slider One, a tiny slider that fits right at the top of a tripod.

The Slider can be a great companion if you know how to use those 6 inches. (I am holding back on all the obvious jokes here, I am sure you will make up for it in the comments). If you are shooting a close by object, 6 inch done slowly can be quite a big camera move. This is true even if you are shooting something that is further away, but have an element in the foreground.
