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.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. The product looks like and is priced like 'aluminum', but the description says this is 'carbon fiber'. Which is it?

A: Here are the specs from Syrp for the Magic Carpet. Portable and lightweight Adjustable legs with fine adjustment feet Vertical shooting with built-in counterweight wheels Made from durable aluminum Silky smooth ball bearing roller carriage. I will notify our web department.

Q: 2. Can this slider be used vertically?

A: The Magic Carpet has an in-built counterweight roller at each end, as well as a counterweight loop in the carriage, making it really simple to use vertically.

Q: 3. What's the difference between this item and Syrp Magic Carpet PRO Short + Medium Combo Kit BH #SY0018SMTK23 (B&H Kit) • MFR #SYKIT-0021?

A: BH #SY0013CFLTKT includes the 2' short slider track and a pair of 2' extensions. While BH #SY0018SMTK23 is for the Pro Track with a 2' track and a 3' track. The first kit gives you a bit more overall length.

Q: 4. How can I choose the right tripod to use with the magic carpet?

A: I would say most shooters will use two tripods without heads and screw directly into the 3/8'-16th holes on the slider bottom. Light stands could also be use with an adapter. This one is the quality I would suggest. Kupo Baby Ball Head Adapter B&H # KUKG014212.

Q: 5. Is this come with a carrying bag like the slider itself?

A: The Syrp Magic Carpet PRO Short Track (2') does not come with a carrying bag.

Q: 6. Can the Syrp Magic Carper PRO carriage and end caps be used with Syrp Magic Carpet (version 1)?

A: The SYRP PRO line of Magic Carpet only works with PRO labeled parts. The original (but also equally amazing) Magic Carpet line is not compatible with the PRO line. The end caps, and carriage not labeled PRO will work with both the standard, and Carbon Fibre line of Magic Carpet tracks. If you are going to do any traveling I would suggest looking into the Carbon Fibre line of the Magic Carpet. The PRO is designed to mainly be used inside a studio or on shoots where you need more robust stability as this thing is heavy but built like a tank trap!

Q: 7. can the carriage be adjusted for drag tension along the rails?

A: No it can not.

Q: 8. Hi Can we use Syrp End Cap and carriage on any type of Slider or it is compatible only with magic carpet..?

A: This is only compatible with Syrp Magic Carpet Tracks. It will not work with other brands of sliders.

A: Hithis is only a slider, to handle your camera you should to buy a motion control, ive bought this a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/992582-REG/syrp_0030_00011_genie.html target= _blank http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/992582-REG/syrp_0030_00011_genie.html/a but you need to buy all the pack fot timelapses and video control... for nikon you need an special sync cable.inf you need something more, please writte to me.

Q: 10. Does this slider have a bubble level?

Eveything is great and the track is smooth. The other reviewer just got a bad track. It has a great design. Be careful with the brake on the carriage. You don't always have to fully lock it to stop your carriage, just half way works if it's level. Some try to force it to lock all the way when it's right out of the box and they mite breck it. Just be mindful of the carrage lock and it will be fine. That is the only low part I see everything else is awesome.

Syrp has come up with a great product combined with the Syrp short and long tracks making for a great camera slider The carriage has tension adjustment, built in bubble level, and study carriage lock. The end caps with the adjustable feet are interchangeable between the short and long tracks. On drawback on the feet is they dont click into place so you have to go by eye that you've adjusted both for to the same angle. That and the cost of the Syrp Genie Pan/Camera motion unit are the only drawbacks

I couldn't be happier with this new Syrp slider. Really well conceived and easy to use. I added a Manfrotto ballhead and a quick release plate on top of the carriage for quick placement of the camera (GH4). And the price just makes it even better!

I've used a bunch of sliders over the years and so far this is one of my favourites. The build quality is great, the modular design is smart and it's easy to manage on small crews or even alone. For the price you'd have a hard time finding anything else of this calibre. My only complaint is that it didn't come with a bag or protective case, there was a lightweight sleeve in the box for the short track but it's not sturdy enough nor big enough to fit the whole slider assembled and I think a carry bag should be an add-on option when you order the a kit.

This is my first time ever writing a review on B&H website. I contacted B&H customer support in hopes they can help me find a decent mechanical slider. Before reaching out however I must mention I've purchased many sliders before this "syrp magic carpet" one and none of them were satisfactory. At first I was skeptical when they recommended this slider because this product surprisingly has 0 reviews. B&H told me I'd be the first. I took a chance and I am beyond satisfied at the smoothness of this slider. So buyer if you are looking for a mechanical slider that is smooth, look no further.
