I have the genie mini ii turnarible kit and I all I want it to do is rotate continuously. Your genie 1 video shows how to do this but the app doesn’t have the continuous option for me. Is it not possible with the genie ii turntable kit? Thanks.
Are the Syrp products discontinued?
Hi when the firmware for automatic ramping coming? Just bought my second genie mini ii.
what is the maximum number of photos for a turntable 360 rotation? thanks
If I’m going to shoot Milky Way Timelapse and I’m shooting 15sec exposures on my Sony camera do I set the exp length on app?
hi there, i bought a 2.5mm to USB-C cable - it is unable to trigger the shutter for my Sony A7R III. Must it use a 2.5mm to micro usb ? Is there no software update that can enable the 2.5mm to USB- C since everything else now is using USB-C. And, by the way the apps i use with my Samsung S23 is Monfrotto Motion - that is the only one available to use with newer mobile phone.
I've enjoyed using my mini 2. However I noticed the latest firmware update looks different to what is in this video. There is an extra button (little red aperture symbol) on the timelapse controls for example. Are you going to update this video to include any new features?
first device i got from them random missed triggering shots on the turntable, they sent a new one, had the same issues, i tested it on multiple cameras, multiple phones and cables. disapointed
Is it the case that even though my camera, Sony a7riii, has a menu setup for interval shooting it is not necessary to set the in-camera interval shooting parameters when using the Genie Mini II and the 2S cable, right?
Is it compatible with Hasselblad 907X 50C ?
Bought this this week and can't find the app for it....???
Down load Manfrotto motion app
I did but can't connect, I did the update and I keep having the "oops, initialisation issue please try again" message
same issue here, just bought it and can't update neither connect@@lexxiejeeh , please let me know if you have any updates. thanks
Also. The shutter cable that is included (once you specify the camera model). That is only used for time-lapse/panorama mode, correct? Do you still need it for video?
That is correct, the shutter link cable is only used to triggering the camera shutter during a time-lapse or panorama. For videos, you need to manually start your recording on your camera and afterwards initiate the desired movement on your Syrp device.
Does a generic usb-c cable charge this unit or do you have to use one supplied. My device just will not charge.
Maybe battery inside is swollen. I already change mine then it can charge normally.
Is it really next in terms of loudness? Is it the same laggy? Motor as in V1?
it's surprisingly loud
Any experience with the Nikon Z series of cameras? One thing I wonder about is that the camera is able to do timelasps internally and combine all the pictures in camera instead of in post.
Do it in post still. You have way more control in an application like Lightroom with an image sequence
Both of the mini IIs I got in my pan tilt kit refuse firmware update and stop at module 20 every time. Been through all suggested troubleshooting with no success, hopefully I hear back from syrp support soon. Shouldn’t be this hard to update a device like this
Dan O'Bruba hope support has got in touch by now. Rest assured we prety much always can update a device. Suggest as first step try and update one at a time and make sure have your other genie mini device off. Also turn off any other wifi or Bluetooth devices or even better try from a different location to avoid interference. Lastly if you have access to another device like android or iOS try a update from there instead .
is it compatible with shutter port of the panasonic G9 ?
For some reason I can't set the interval lower than 1 minute. How do I resolve?
Hi, this was an old bug with previous firmware. Are you sure your Syrp Genie 2 app is up to date? Check for an update on the app store. Once updated you will be prompted to update the firmware on the device. If you still have issues contact support@syrp.co.nz
I want to know the lowest rotation time of the Syrp Genie Mini II when shooting in video mode.
Hey there! You can go as slow as you like - over hours or even days
@@SyrpLab Thank you for your answer. Are you saying that you can set a 360 degree rotation time for more than one hour in video mode?
Support Olympus em10 mark iii? Mark iii has no shutter port.
Hi there, in this case, you will be able to use the Genie Mini II for just motion control.
I'm having trouble charging the upper part of my genie 2 (the pan tilt component) I've tried different cables....and it's just not charging. Anyone else run into this problem or have any ideas?
Hey Donny! If you haven't already, flick us an email at support@syrp.co.nz so someone from the team can help
Does the Genie Mini II work with the Sony A7Rii? When I connect the USB cable I get a screen that either says "Check the USB device" or "USB Mode Connecting" which doesn't ever connect. Any help is much appreciated!
you should use the Syrp link cable for triggering not he USB cable that comes with the camera. You need the 2S cable for that. Thanks
@@SyrpLab thanks for the fast reply! Ah right I didnt realise. Is this cable supposed to be supplied with the Genie Mini II? If so I didn't get one.
@@ThomasWilliamson You need to select it on checkout, where did you buy it from? It should have mentioned it or gave you a selection. They are $9.
@@SyrpLab I got it from Adorama, I never noticed any additional cables! Nevermind I will have to order one, thanks!
Is there an iPad version of the app available?
Hey there, we don't have a table specific version of the APP. It is best viewed on a smart phone but equally usable on Tablets. I have recorded this as a feature request to share with my developers however.
No compatibility with Genie version 1?
Genie Mini II will not work with Genie (original version)
Please dont buy this system. It is rubbish. Buggy app crashes and locks up. Looses Bluetooth. I had such high hopes for it, but have stopped doing timelapse now because of these
Can I use any dc2 cable for shutter release for nikon d750 or it should brought from syrp. I tried 2 different cables for my genie mini 2 but unfortunately it's unable to trigger the shutter.I tried resetting the genie mini as well still same issue
SAM SAM likely you need syrp one because of the way pins are designed on the end that goes into the mini
