edelkrone EDZFX Reviews

Edelkrone then (2019) and now (2024-2025).

I have not yet purchased the Vertical Module but, since 2020, I have purchased many of their products. My experience in 2024 causes me to feel that they are not the company today that they were then. Since mid 2024 customer support has been slow and sometimes non existent. It's unfortunate. I hope they self correct as they have done many things right.

Not As Expected

I'm a huge fan of Edelkrone, having two of their pro motorized sliders, motorized head and pan motors, remote, etc. That is to say, this critical review is required because this product has some serious flaws. Please note, this review is after extensive testing, tuning the Motor Module as directed, and trial and error. The good? The Vertical Module, with a few alterations to the current SliderPlus Pro Long and Motor Module (new belt on the slider, new tensioning screw on the motor), enables the slider to function at angles higher than previously possible. It does so with style, though with quite a bit more weight and bulk to carry. The bad? With the HeadOne (not Pro), and a basic mirrorless camera setup while in vertical orientation (like the pictures) , the Vertical Module STILL does not have enough strength to help the Motor Module slide the entire length of a SliderPlus Pro Long. Near the ends of the slide, it the springs don't have enough tension to continue the slide without the motor slipping. It's only possible to slide 70-80% of the Long slider. After running the slider for 30+ minutes, I noted that it was no longer vertical. It sags over time, and there is no option to tighten the Vertical Module onto a tripod with a tool. It's hand tighten only (as is the bracket for mounting a camera or motion head. (I'm using a 75mm bowl). The kit comes with an angle bracket to level your camera or motion head (HeadPlus). The angle bracket, like the base, is hand tighten only. There is no way to tighten it onto the slider with tools, ensuring that it won't rotate off and have your payload (camera) fall. Lastly, and the dealbreaker, the angle bracket uses a ¼-20 screw to mount the payload. This would be fine IF you were only mounting a camera. But, if you're mounting the HeadPlus, then you're relying on a ¼-20 screw to bear the weight of your camera and HeadPlus. This is an extreme risk, and is unacceptable. While I typically have had excellent responses from Edelkrone support, I sent this feedback to them and have had zero response back. As someone who considers myself an unofficial ambassador for their products, this is a failure of both product and support.   When Edelkrone announced the Vertical Module, I was excited and ordered immediately. Edelkrone's site described deliveries beginning in 2-6 weeks. Having ordered on May 2nd, it was September 14th when it finally arrived. Quite a disappointment to wait so long and find the product is a poor solution. I'm left wondering if this product will be quickly discontinued in favor of a stronger Motor Module.
