Description

Capture two-axis motorised camera slides with the Syrp Genie Pan Track Kit from Syrp. The kit features a 1 m medium track Magic Carpet Slider, Genie and Genie Mini motion control devices, and a ball head. The Genie is the brains behind the operation, with its motor enabling both smooth real-time motion and stepping motion for time-lapse photography.

The Genie mounts on the slider carriage and uses an included rope to pull itself along the track. The Genie Mini sits atop the Genie and adds panning motion to create two-axis camera moves with loads up to 4 kg. A sync cable is included for connecting the two Genie devices, with the control and setup of the Genie Mini done wirelessly over Bluetooth using iOS or Android devices. For quick camera attachment and angle adjustment, the included ball head mounts on the Genie Mini and features an Arca-type plate.

Compact enough to fit into a small carry bag or even your coat pocket; the Syrp Genie Mini is a portable and easy-to-use device for creating smooth panning motion time-lapses or real-time video. It is designed to sit between your camera and tripod and has an internal motor that enables 360° panning motion with cameras weighing up to 8.8 pounds. Control and setup is done wirelessly using a Bluetooth connection and the Syrp Genie App for iOS and Android devices. To accommodation experienced and beginning time-lapse shooters, the app provides a useful set of presets so you can start shooting right away. A lithium-ion battery provides 48+ hours of time-lapse and 5+ hours of smooth continuous panning on a single charge, with a micro-USB cable included for re-charging the battery.

Camera Compatibility
The Genie Mini is compatible with hundreds of different cameras, including DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, and video cameras using optional link cables. The link cable connects your camera to the Genie Mini's 2.5mm camera control port.

Features

  • Supports both incremental time-lapse motion as well as smooth continuous panning motion
  • Max Speed: 360° in 33 seconds
  • Built-in Bluetooth connectivity for wireless setup and control using the Syrp Genie App for iOS and Android devices
  • App presets to help you get started with your time-lapses
  • HDR time-lapse mode
  • Ease in/out feature lets you ramp your movement at the beginning and ends of your time-lapses or video move
  • 1/4"-20 camera mounting screw with 3/8"-16 adapter included
  • 3/8"-16 tripod mounting thread
  • Lithium-ion battery provides 48+ hours of time-lapse and 5+ hours of smooth continuous panning
  • Micro-USB charging cable
  • Can be combined with the Syrp Genie for 2-axis motion control (using optional sync cable to connect the systems)

The Genie Motion Control Time-Lapse Device from Syrp is your key to the creative world of time-lapse photography or real-time video. The 10.16 cm cube takes up very little space in your bag, and at only 1.5 kg it's easy to make it part of your standard rig.

The Genie, which allows both panning and linear motion control, attaches to standard gear such as dollies, sliders, jib arms, and tripods. Simply attach it to your tripod or support and mount your optional camera and ball head to the 3/8"-16 stud atop the Genie. The weight of your equipment is rarely a concern since it supports up to 20 kg. An illuminated bubble level is built-in for setting up in low light. The Genie has factory presets such as Stars, People, or Clouds, but you can enter an unlimited amount of user presets into the Genie's memory for custom work. At maximum panning speed, a 360° pan takes five seconds, while 99 cm of linear movement takes just 23 seconds.

Linear time-lapse can be done on a rail or on a linear support system of your own making. While the Genie comes with 9.8' of rope to pull it across the rail, the movement of your time-lapse is only limited by the length of your rope. Kevlar-cored rope with lengths of 100 m, 50 m, or 10 m are available separately. The Genie has been tested successfully on a homemade 60' dual-cable stretched over a lake.

Inputs include both USB for firmware and a sensor input. The free firmware upgrade enables bulb ramp-in and ramp-out functions, as well as HDR (High Dynamic Range). Ramping is the process of modifying exposure settings on a camera to maintain a desired exposure value while the camera is in Bulb mode. This is especially valuable for transitional day into night, or night into day time-lapses.

The sensor input accepts a motion, light, sound, or other type of sensor to start your programme in response to specific stimuli. The Genie ships with both panning and sliding bases, two slider mounts, 3 m of rope, and a multi-voltage charger for its built-in battery. A three-hour charge gives you about 12 hours of run time, depend on the weight of your camera. The Genie is compatible with approximately 130 cameras from nine major brands. A camera link cable must be purchased separately.

Key Features

Dual Motion
Panning and linear motion control with one device.

Versatile
Attaches to any existing film equipment such as a dolly, slider, jib arm, etc.

Sensor Input
Auto Start function through a timer or sensor or both. Sensor input allows for attachment of a motion sensor, light sensor, sound sensor, and more.

Preview
The Preview function allows for revision of recording movement prior to recording.

Pre-Sets
Factory pre-sets allow for instant shooting straight out of the box, or storable user-programmable panning and tracking pre-sets.

Auto Start and Power Saving
Auto Start enables the user to programme camera movements to return to "Home" and repeat again, or continuously run the same movement. It also enables the user to set up time-lapse or camera movement to start on a delay timer. Auto Power Off shuts down the Genie when it's unused for one hour to save battery power.

Levelling
Bubble level with light is provided.

Ramping Firmware
Bulb ramping is the process of modifying exposure settings on a camera to maintain a desired exposure value while the camera is in Bulb mode. A free firmware upgrade allows for ramp-in/ramp-out function and HDR.

Designed to connect a Genie motion control system to a Genie Mini, the Syrp Sync Cable allows you to combine the two systems together to add 2-axis motorised motion to your time-lapse and real-time videos.

The Magic Carpet Carriage and End Caps from Syrp are designed for use with either the Magic Carpet 80 cm Short Track or 1.6 m Long Track. The Carriage easily slides into the end of the track and includes a brake, a bubble level, and a reversible 3/8"16 and 1/4"-20 threaded screw to attach either a camera, ballhead, or tripod head.

The two End Caps slot into the end of the tracks and have adjustable quick release legs which are easily adjusted by pulling out a lever, without the need for additional tools. The End Caps also include Genie rope lock-off hooks which enable the Syrp Genie Motion Control Time Lapse Device to be easily attached and locked off. Additionally, the end caps have a counter balance wheel which allows for vertical slides with heavier cameras. The Genie rope is simply tied off around the carriage and then thread through the counter balance wheel. A weight is used to offset the camera weight.

  • Carriage and End Caps are universal to the Magic Carpet system and fit either the Short Track or Long Track
  • Brake and bubble level on Carriage
  • Reversible 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 threaded screw for attaching camera, ballhead, or tripod head
  • End Caps with adjustable quick release legs
  • Genie rope lock off hooks for using with Genie Motion Control Time Lapse Device
  • Counter balance wheel for vertical slides with heavier cameras

The Syrp Ballhead is designed to work with the Genie Motion Control Time Lapse Device, but can also be used with most tripods or monopods. It has an Arca-type quick release plate with a locking knob to secure your camera in place. It can hold up to 12 kg and weighs less than a pound at only 340 g. The ballhead has separate locking knobs for tilting and 360º panning. Cameras attach to the plate with a 1/4"-20 male thread and the ballhead attaches to the Genie or other support with a 3/8"-16 female thread.

The 1 m Magic Carpet Medium Track from Syrp provides a sliding surface for the Magic Carpet slider system. It supports loads up to 7 kg and is compatible with the optional Magic Carpet Carriage and End Caps.
