If you are reading this site for any amount of time, you you know that we are big fans of adding movement to time lapses. I mean static timelapses are so 2014 :)

UPDATE: the giveaway has ended and a winner picked. Please see bottom of post for details. Huge thanks to SYRP for the prize and huge thanks to everyone for playing.

If you want movement but still cant setup a big rig, the Genie mini is the perfect solution for you, and we are giving one away!

The Mini is a small rotating plate that can easily fit in your bag.  When you are ready to take a time lapse just pop it on a tripod, set the rotation parameters with a phone app and tell it to start. And you can win one by entering below (street value is $249.00). There is a cool demo over here. But we are also giving a bonus: a SYRP Ballhead ($109.95).  How cool is that. All you have to do is enter below:
