NEEWER ER1 Motorized Slider 80 cm review

The 31.5-inch version of NEEWER’s app-controlled carbon motorized slider, with an NP-F750 battery, for about $270.

Portable

80 cm.

App

Speed and interval.

Battery

NP-F750.

Listing note

Charger statements disagree.

Getting smooth slides

Level the slider first, then support it at both ends on two light stands or a tripod and the included feet. Move the carriage at an even speed, start and stop gently, and use a light camera and lens: the less weight on the carriage, the smoother the move.

Portable motion control

At 80 cm, the ER1 fits in a backpack and still gives meaningful moves. The app runs manual, video and time-lapse modes, and the silent stepper motor keeps noise down for interviews.

Box contents

The bullets say no charger is included, while the product table lists a four-channel charger and a 100 W fast charger. Check the box on arrival.
