As for the video, your work always has a nice flow to it, so keep posting Voodles mate, im always quick to click the play button with your stuff :)
Yes the Glidetrack can be mounted on a tripod although it does not come with any fittings so you have to source those yourself. it has a standard tripod thread in the rail and bolt in the sliding plate.
I fitted mine to my Manfrotto 525 / 503 by simply fitting a camera plate to the bottom of it and mounting it on the fluid head. This works fine if your very careful but you have to hang on to the camera in case something gives in the bowl etc and the camera runs of down the track on it's own!
I have become addicted to random and meaningless videos...I will be making one of my own soon.
My Glidetrack has arrived and I am indeed pleased with the potential of the gadget. (I have stuck Morston Mud in my favourites.)
I know what you mean about the bowl of the 503 tripod it can slip unless locked down with the strength of ten men. You have even more kit on top of yours.
Nevertheless I am excited at the prospect of using the device in earnest....bring it on!
