This kit offers a professional expansion solution designed specifically for the iPhone 17 Pro. It supports professional-level video recording, live streaming, and short film shooting. The set includes a full-cover metal video cage and a TPU soft bumper, enabling creative production and everyday protection.
The SmallRig 5545 fits the iPhone 17 Pro and allows you to mount the phone into the cage while the TPU soft bumper remains on. This design keeps the phone protected during setup and filming, while still enabling quick and secure mounting and dismounting.
The bumper case ships with a T-mount backplate and a 17mm threaded lens backplate for attaching external lenses during creative shoots. You can replace the T-mount backplate with a 67mm magnetic filter adapter (sold separately) when you need enhanced optical output or different filter options.
The TPU soft bumper features multiple 1/4"-20 anti-twist threaded holes and cold shoe mounts. These attachment points let you expand your setup with handles, tripods, microphones, lights, and other accessories. Simplified quick release interfaces speed up transitions between handheld and tripod configurations, improving workflow on set.
Side-mounted strap holes accept professional wrist and shoulder straps under 2mm in diameter, so you can keep your hands free between shots while keeping the phone secured to your body.
The video cage uses a full-cover metal construction to provide comprehensive protection. It offers shock absorption and scratch resistance while safeguarding your device during use. At the same time, the hollowed-out design maintains access to all iPhone buttons, ports, the radar system, the ultra-wide lens, and wireless charging so you can operate and charge the phone without removing it from the setup.
The cage includes a quick lock mechanism that allows convenient and secure phone mounting and dismounting. The mechanism prevents accidental unlocking and phone ejection, giving you confidence during active shooting or when moving between locations.
