Earlier this month Trost Motion have announced the availability of a new kind of camera slider which is meant to be extremely strong but also precise enough for even tiny movements required for example in macro photography.

The 15 pounds (6.8 kg) all metal (steel) Trost can hold enormous weights – up to 560 pounds (enough to hold fully kitted Arri Alexa or RED Epic with the right head). Its so strong the designers created this video showing 4 Trost sliders holding a car and moving it!
