SmallRig 5810 Cage for Canon EOS C80

SmallRig 5810 Cage for Canon EOS C80 – Modular cage with multiple mounting interfaces and NATO rail

The SmallRig 5810 Cage for Canon EOS C80 gives filmmakers a modular mounting solution. It combines a top plate, dual side plates, a baseplate and a bottom mount plate with a NATO rail and cable management to adapt between tripod, gimbal and shoulder setups.

Key features and mounting interfaces

The cage uses a modular design and provides a wide variety of mounting points. This enables flexible accessory placement and fast configuration changes on set.

• 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes
• 1/4"-20 locating holes
• ARRI 3/8"-16 locating holes
• M3 threaded holes
• Cold shoe mounts
• H21 NATO rails
• QD sockets
• And additional mounting points for further expansion

Modular baseplate: two configurations for different rigs

The baseplate adapts to the shooting mode you need. First, attaching the bottom mount plate increases the distance between threaded holes. As a result, the cage becomes compatible with tripods, ARRI BP8 bridge plates, LWS baseplates with dual rod clamps and shoulder rigs. In this configuration, you can set up the camera for stable tripod or shoulder-mounted operation.

Alternatively, remove the bottom mount plate and attach the cage directly to supported gimbals. This allows straightforward mounting on DJI RS 2, RS 3 Pro and RS 4 Pro gimbals for stabilized handheld movement.

Ergonomics and accessory integration

The right side plate improves grip while retaining multiple threaded holes for accessories. In practice, you can attach tripods, mini L-shaped mount plates and other support gear directly to the side plate.

The modular NATO rail matches the original handle grooves and mounts on the top or sides of the cage. This design supports both horizontal and vertical shooting orientations and quick handle swaps.

Compatibility with Canon accessories and SmallRig ecosystem

The cage kit works with Canon’s microphone holders, focal plane marking hooks and off-camera shoe cords (OC-E4A). It also integrates with SmallRig accessories such as side handles, magic arms, monitor mounts, baseplates with dual rod clamps and follow focus rod clamps. These compatibility points help you build a workflow that matches your production needs.
