SmallRig 5752 Cage Kit for Panasonic G9 II / S5 II / S5 IIX – secure mounting of accessories and cable clamp

The SmallRig 5752 Cage Kit is an essential solution for filmmakers working with the Panasonic G9 II, S5 II, and S5 IIX. This kit facilitates handheld filming and allows for easy attachment of a variety of accessories. Equipped with a protective camera cage, a convenient HDMI and USB-C cable clamp, and an ergonomically designed top handle, the kit enhances grip and security during both fast filming sessions and more controlled studio situations.

Main features and mounting options

This Cage Kit is designed with multiple mounting points to maximize your creativity and flexibility when attaching various accessories. Here are some of the key mounting options:

• 1/4"-20 threaded holes: These mounts support SmallRig Side Handles, allowing you to attach side handles for better grip and stability.
• Cold shoe mounts: These mounts are perfect for attaching SmallRig SSD Holder, microphones, LED video lights, and other cold shoe accessories, increasing the versatility of your equipment.
• ARRI 3/8"-16 locating holes: These holes allow for mounting a robust monitor using a SmallRig Monitor Mount, ensuring that your monitor is always in the right position.
• HawkLock H21 NATO rail: Located on the left side of the cage, it enables quick and secure mounting of compatible SmallRig Side Handles.
• Strap holes: These holes on both sides of the cage allow for the use of a hand strap, providing extra stability and carrying comfort during filming.

Cable management and ergonomics

One of the most practical features of this kit is the included HDMI and USB-C cable clamp. This clamp can be easily tightened with a thumb screw and helps secure the cables during recordings, reducing the risk of accidental disconnections. Additionally, the top handle is easy to attach and detach with the NATO clamp, saving time and increasing efficiency. The ergonomic design of the top handle improves grip, especially during handheld filming, making it easier to manage the camera for extended periods.

Included tools

To facilitate the installation and disassembly of the kit, SmallRig includes a magnetic key. This key is handy and stays in place thanks to its magnetic property, making it easy to tighten or loosen screws without losing the tool.
