About the Patented SILENT CATTM CAMERA SLIDER
The Patented SILENT CATTM CAMERA SLIDER is the quietest, smoothest and most versatile camera slider that mobilizes any motion picture camera, video camera, digital camera and any piece of equipment that can be mounted to a standard Motion Picture Industry Mitchell Mount. It utilizes a new Lightweight Perimeter Tubular Structure that encompasses only the perimeter of the equipment and offers excellent structural properties.
The New Light Weight Perimeter Tubular Structure allows any Mitchell Mount Equipment to be top mounted or under slung** to it.
The Patented SILENT CATTM CAMERA SLIDER utilizes a silent bearing and track system that allows sound recording to occur in any circumstance. This tracking system is not used by any other equipment of this genre. Currently quality sound recording is impeded with existing technology of this genre.
Tom Hollman, Local 52 Sound Mixer “The other sliders say they’re quiet, The SILENT CATTM is!”
The New Light Weight Perimeter Tubular Structure is mounted to a newly designed 360 Degree Mitchell Mount Pan Mechanism. Most unique is that the mounting pattern of this mechanism and the construction of The New Light Weight Perimeter Tubular Structure allow The 360 Degree Pan Mechanism to be mounted anywhere on the patented SILENT CATTM CAMERA SLIDER. This allows the SILENT CATTM CAMERA SLIDER to be canter levered, center mounted, and mounted virtually any position over the length of the SILENT CATTM
The SILENT CATTM CAMERA SLIDER can also be inverted and mounted to any under slung Mitchell Mount.
More About the Silent CatTM CAMERA SLIDER
** All camera sliders allow the camera to slide into a position where there is an imbalance of weight. The mounting positions available on the Patented SILENT CATTM CAMERA SLIDER may increase an imbalance of weight.
The user of the SILENT CATTM CAMERA SLIDER is responsible for safety and judgment as to prevent the camera and what it is mounted to from tipping over.
DO NOT CANTILEVER the SILENT CATTM unless you support the opposite end of the Mitchell Mount with a stand to help support the weight. Use the selection of custom hardware to help facilitate this. The maximum recommended cantilever without this support is 36” Mitchell to Mitchell when using the Counter Weight Tray with appropriate counter weight.
