Syrp Magic Carpet Camera Slider Overview

Shoot super-smooth video and time-lapse shots with the Syrp Magic Carpet Carbon Slider Kit with Short Carbon Track Extensions. The kit includes the Magic Carpet Slider Carriage, two end caps, the main 2' long carbon fiber track, plus two 2' long carbon fiber track extensions that enable you to make a slider that is either 2, 4, or 6' long. The Magic Carpet Kit is simple to set up and take with you to local and remote locations. When you're ready to move on, it quickly breaks down into a compact bundle, giving you more room to pack your camera gear.

The slider carriage features a reversible 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting screw, so you can use almost any camera or head on the slider, minding the 11-pound weight limit on the track sections. The included end caps feature articulating legs that allow you to adjust the level of the slider when shooting on uneven terrain and feature both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes for mounting. The slider tracks are made of carbon fiber, striking a balance between weight and strength.

Syrp Magic Carpet Carbon Fiber Short Slider Track (2')

The 2' Magic Carpet Carbon Fiber Short Track from Syrp provides a lightweight yet stable sliding surface for the Magic Carpet slider system. It supports loads up to 11 lb and is compatible with the original Magic Carpet Carriage and End Caps (not included). Use this short track as the base of your Magic Carpet slider.

Syrp Magic Carpet Carriage and End Caps

The Magic Carpet Carriage and End Caps from Syrp are designed for use with either the Magic Carpet 2.6' Short Track or 5.2' 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

Syrp Magic Carpet Camera Slider Reviews

Really nice slider

By Tin
Rated 5 out of 5

Only if it's a couple more inches longer. For centered tripod mount slider the sweet spot is about 30 inch or shorter. It can definitely takes more weight than the spec says. I mount a FX6 and a head on it and works fine.

Got it from BH on deal of the day 5.2' slider!

question

Hi, i have this slider and a Surui tripod. Could you tell me which plate can i use for mounting the Magic Carpet on my tripod? Thanks.
Asked by: Mariano F.
If by plate you mean the two sets of rails that come in Kit, you can use either set of on a tripod. Simply attach the tripods quick release plate to the middle screw hole. Do be cognoscente that you need a robust tripod if you have a heavy camera and video head particularly if you use the 5.2' rail set. Otherwise you may fall over.

question

How can I choose the right tripod to use with the magic carpet?
Asked by: Otavio
I attach a tripod on one end and a light stand on the other side and it works great. There a different sized hole on the ends and middle so it will fit both tripod screw sizes. If you want to shoot video with it I would get a head like this: https://<a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/827210-REG/Manfrotto_MVH502AH_75Mm_Flat_Head.html target= _blank >www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/827210-REG/Manfrotto_MVH502AH_75Mm_Flat_Head.html</a> It hooks right on the slider and works great. If you are doing timelapse then get a head like the one Syrp sells.

Can you expand the length on the regular Magic Carpet? I know you can on the Pro, but I want to know if you can on this model.
Asked by: Ian
No, unfortunately, the Syrp Magic Carpet 3.3' Medium Track with Carriage and End Caps Kit cannot be extended like the Syrp Magic Carpet PRO Short Slider Kit with Extension (60"). It is possible to swap the track to something longer by opting for the Syrp Magic Carpet Long Track (5.2'). See the link below: https://bhpho.to/3JHkjyi

hello, does the end caps have 3/8" holes centred below or other size holes to mount them on a tripod ?
Asked by: clement
The Syrp Magic carpet slider has 1/4 20 and 3/8 connections on the slider rail that would allow you to attach tripods as support like in this image - https://bit.ly/3sLB0BP
