The Foton SLP Slider Supports are an essential accessory for any videographer using long camera sliders with a single central tripod mount. The problem with long sliders is that when the camera carriage reaches the extreme ends, the weight causes the slider ends to dip, resulting in unwanted movement and instability. The Foton SLP Supports solve this issue by providing a quick and easy way to “stiffen” the slider.
This set consists of two adjustable props that connect the underside of the slider (at its ends) to the legs of the main tripod. This triangular bracing effectively transfers the load, stabilizing the slider, and preventing destabilization or “sag” when the camera is placed in an extreme position. They are specifically designed for use with Foton’s own Kameleon and Lizard sliders but may be adapted for other brands. Lightweight, durable, and fully adjustable for angle and length, the Foton SLP Slider Supports are a simple yet vital piece of equipment for achieving consistently smooth, professional camera movements.
