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. And while there are some small and nifty devices out there, nothing beats a full rig. And the Genie Pan Track Kit is one of our favorite. Guess what? We’re giving one away! (street value $1,365.00 USD).

The kit is made up from four parts (and you can use them combined or individually): a Genie, a Magic Carpet Short Track, a Genie Mini, and a SYRP ballhead.

You’re gonna have till the end of August 24th to jump on board, when we will select a random winner for this awesome kit. You also get extra entries for sharing so go for it!

About the Genie Pan Track Kit

2-Axis Road_800

Increase the production value of your films by combining the Genie with the Genie Mini. Connect them together using the Sync cable for Pan Track time-lapse and video and create a 2-Axis effect by tracking around objects, perfect for interview shots and cutaways. This configuration allows setup and control via the Syrp Genie App (iOS / Android) or the Genie itself

About The Genie
