Konova P1 Motorized Camera Slider Reviews

Not The Most Well Thought Out

By Ben H
Rated 2 out of 5

Within an hour of opening the packaging and testing this slider, I had already decided to return it. The remote is cheaply made and the UI is really clunky. BIGGEST DOWNSIDE: you have to take the whole thing apart, motor and belt included just to fit it back into the carrying case. The 14”/3/8” thread for the camera mount is fixed to the slider so the only way to mount your camera is to spin the CAMERA round and round until it’s tightened, and only if you’re lucky, the camera will tighten AND be facing the right way. Slider function seems to work fine, but a bit slow at max speed. Wouldn’t recommend.

Bluetooth controlled slider that keeps going and going

Yes, it's wireless. Bluetooth controller. Haven't tried to figure out the range yet. But the good news is that you can walk away with your iphone after you set it in-motion, and it keeps going. I'm talking about time lapse. I didn't want to leave my phone next to the slider for a 4 hour session. Didn't need to. Once started, it kept going without the phone nearby. However, the software will not be happy if you don't respond to the notice that it's lost the Bluetooth connection. I had to uninstall and reinstall the software after I didn't respond to the notice that the Bluetooth connection had been broken. Just let it know that you are fine with losing the Bluetooth connection and you'll be good to go next time you set it up. That said, installing the software on my iphone was easy. I'm using the slider with a Sony A9 that has its own timelapse feature so I haven't tried connecting the camera to the slider motor. But if your camera doesn't have timelapse, you can connect a cable between the slider motor and the camera. B&H sells the standard model of this slider that comes with a Canon shutter cable. If you buy from other sources, Konova will let you pick a different shutter cable. Not really a problem. I ordered two Vello shutter cables from B&H for my other camera models...and they were less than $10 each. I'm using this slider with two tripods. It takes a bit of doing to get the tripods just right in terms of distance and height as I'm outside on uneven ground. But I think the results are worth the effort. I'm using an NP-F970 battery clone for power and it's fine so far. Despite being out in 20 deg F temps, it runs the slider for hours without issue. And I haven't noticed any jitters or noise from the motor. It all seems very smooth and quiet so far. I'm pleased with this slider and would recommend it.

Konova does offer an Android app for the Konova P1 Carbon Slider with KMS-S3 Wireless Motorized System (47.2"), but it may not be available on the Play store and would need to be downloaded via a QR code included with the slider.
