Features and Benefits

The removable top plate of the cage features a NATO rail that is perfectly suited for Sony's XLR top handle or SmallRig's rotating top handle (model 4152), providing you with flexibility without obstructing your electronic viewfinder (EVF). Additionally, the cage offers multiple mounting options, including threaded holes of type 1/4”-20 and 3/8”-16 ARRI positioning holes, as well as a “HawkLock” NATO rail for quick and secure mounting of accessories like side handles and top handles.

For increased functionality, the cage has an accessory shoe mount that allows for the attachment of devices such as the DJI Mic 2 or LED lights. A QD socket at the bottom of the cage is designed to accommodate shoulder straps, facilitating transport and portability. A magnetic hex key is also included at the bottom, making it easy to quickly assemble and disassemble the cage.

The quick release plate at the bottom, along with the “HawkLock” H38 Arca-Swiss quick release plate (model 4486), offers a self-locking mechanism for fast and secure attachment. This Arca-Swiss plate also allows for smooth transitions between handheld, tripod, and gimbal configurations, making it compatible with DJI RS 2, RSC 2, RS 3, RS 3 Pro, RS 4, and RS 4 Pro stabilizers. An included HDMI cable clamp ensures stable attachment for the cable and secure data transfer, which is crucial to avoid interruptions during recording.
