IMORDEN Camera Slider Ball Bearing Adjustment Turtorial

When you are using a camera slider, there are the two situations you may meet:the carriage doesn't roll smooth or your camera wobbles forward and backwards(left to right) on the track.

If you happen to meet this problem, please don’t worry. It's normal for most of camera sliders as the bearings could loose in transit or after a period using.And you just need to adjust it slightly.

Here is the way to solve the problem you faced in this issue.

Tools you will need: 
2mm hex key
3mm hex key(included in the package)
Needle-nose pliers(not included, plz use your own)

1.Take your 3mm hex key and carefully loosen all 4 hex screws on the carriage. 

2.After the screws are taking out pull off the carriage to expose the bearings,take the 2mm hex key and carefully loosen each locking screw in both bearings.

3.After each screw is loose ,take your needle-nose pliers and SLIGHTLY tighten/loosen the bearings that are loose/tight.

PS:

1) Do not over tighten;

2) Take several times to test whether the carriage is properly steady/smooth or not;

3)Make sure the holes are parallel with each other after adjustment.

4.If it did, repeat previous steps to put back together.

WOW, YOU ARE GREAT! YOU'VE DONE! :)

Hope that helps!

Review - Imorden 40" Track Slider Rail Dolly for DSLR or GoPro

 I was very impressed with this track slider. I have always wanted one to get those great moving shots and this one did not disappoint. It is super easy to setup and with its case is easy to transport. I was also very impressed with the build quality.

Out of the box it took me about 3 minutes to set it up. There are no instructions included but none are necessary. This track works by itself but I would recommend a couple things to go with it that will make you experience and video better. First, you need a tripod head. I would recommend one with pan/tilt functionality. This will make shooting the video much easier and give you more flexibility. Second, I would recommend a tripod to mount this on. You can see from my video and attached pictures how I used the tripod.

Overall this is an impressive product at a great price. I would like to thank Imorden for supplying me with a sample product to review. You will not be disappointed. Check out my video!

Imorden S-60C & S-40C Stabilizer - Review | Demo | Tutorial

Before we start I would like to say I have a youtube video featuring footage with the S-40C & S-60C, and I am VERY pleased with the footage. Just search my name "Matt Cornelius" and you will find my channel and video called "Imorden S-60C & S-40C Stabilizer - Review | Demo | Tutorial" (BTW I have flying tips in this review as well) I have spent hours upon hours reading articles and watching tutorial videos and watching people use stabilizers and I have took what I learned and will pass it to you in this review/tutorial.
Why choose the Imorden stabilizer in my opinion? 1) Customer Service. 2) Quick release plate. 3) Spring tension. 4) Superior Build Quality from my past experiences with stabilizers.

This product is well worth the money for the results being delivered. It surprised me how good it was the first time I used it.
The Carbon Fiber body is light and easy to store and carry with you anywhere. The spring tension knobs and levers are great and allows you to accurately dial in settings smoothly.

SETUP: Watch my tutorial and get an understanding of how the balancing works. This is very easy to balance, especially with the spring tension adjustment knobs.

GUIDING HAND: I find guiding is best with a 2 finger pinch grip right under the gimbal. A light touch is enough to send this off balance with using lighter cameras so aquire the skill. You don't learn guitar the first hour you pick it up do you? Practice Practice.

TECHNIQUE: I believe smooth flying Is 45% technique. Keep your arm at a 45 degree angle while shooting. BEND your knees and walk like you are sneaking up behind someone. Bending your knees isolates muscle movement and keeps it to a minimum so it will not shake your hand. *THIS IS IMPORTANT... A LOT OF PEOPLE GET SHAKY VIDEO ON MANY BRANDS OF STABILIZERS BECAUSE THE WONT DO THIS CORRECTLY.

PRACTICE THE RIGHT WAY: Get in your living room, walk back and forth with proper body mechanics for as long as you can. Run also. Go outside, practice walking around a tree keeping note of how your technique is doing. Watch your video and look for areas to improve.

GETTING THE "BUTTERY SMOOTH FLYING EFFECT" : Focus the center of your camera on an object and keep it in the center of the camera, and walk towards your subject always keeping the object in middle of your screen, this gets rid of unnecessary sway of your arms and body and helps give the illusion that your camera is flying in a straight line. (I am not saying this is how you need to use it )but I found it can help if your trying to find that "smoothy butterness"

USING SIDESTEPPING: Often times we can get sway with our stabilizer if we try to walk around an object keeping it at the center of focus. I observed Devin Graham doing this a ton in his behind-the-scenes videos. As you begin to circle an object side step into it. This eliminates you trying to spin using the guide hand as much and creates a smooth pan.

FINAL THOUGHTS: Once you get used to balancing this It is all up to you. Devin Graham even said in an interview "People always ask me why my video isn't as smooth as yours?" I been using A STABILIZER for 9 years he replied... Look at this as learning to play guitar, you will get the hang of it after practicing . Keep your demands reasonable and practice practice practice! Always look at ways to improve! Like I said, I believe 45% is technique!

PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE, you will get it down!
