SLIDER MOTION
There are two types of motion the crane slider can
achieve for smooth and creative shots—linear and
parabolic.
Before engaging the slider, pull the slider lock and
twist 90°. Push or pull the slide handle to move the
slider arms.
Linear
This moves your camera in a straight line to capture
side-to-side (Fig. 1) or front-to-back shots (Fig. 2).

Parabolic Panning
This mode rotates your camera so it pans on a
parabolic curve (Fig. 3).
