Dolly Recommendations

[DanielVranic]

Hey everyone. Looking for a dolly recommendation for an upcoming shoot. I would like to own one for my own pet projects, so this is why I am considering buying vs renting. I saw that Glidegear DEV, as well as the track and tripod dolly setup. 

Does anyone have a recommendation? Or maybe something else I should be looking for?

I want to mount everything in the photo (minus handles and shoulder pad)

This is the other dolly I am looking at and highly considering.

I've always admired the Norms Travel Dolly, because it can be "underslung."  You just need to get sections of 1 1/4" tube/pipe for tracks.

 

So, with the two stands, you can adjust the dolly height from the floor and up, with no need for camera risers to do so.

 

Norms offers a less expensive starter kit, without the special stands and special under-slung arms (you can just use two standard C-stands with grip arms for under-slinging).

Ooof those look nice, but about 9x the price of the ones I have linked.
