We currently use a Cinevate Slider for almost every project we film. It’s great to pop onto a tripod for DSLR use, or a couple of stands to operate with a cinema camera. If you’re looking for the essentials; it’s a great camera, tripod and slider.
When covering larger areas of controlled sliding, we pull out the Dana Dolley or the Cinevate Jib on tracks. The jib is an advanced resource for handling shots on a vertical axis (ie. following a subject up stairs, tilting camera to reveal a building, etc.) It definitely comes in handy for larger scale productions.
