SHAPE Half Cage with Wooden Handle for Sony FX3

The SHAPE Half Cage with Wooden Handle protects your Sony FX3 camera while extending its mounting capabilities with a cold shoe, seven 3/8"-16 threads, and multiple 1/4"-20 threads, enabling versatile customization of your run-and-gun setup for field applications with additional monitors or microphones. An ARRI rosette on the left side of the cage allows you to attach the included adjustable wooden handle to the rig for a more ergonomic handgrip. To ensure unencumbered operation, the cage's design maintains access to the camera's controls and ports.

Attaching the factory handle of your camera is easy, thanks to the top plate's threaded ARRI hole patterns. An included HDMI protector can be secured to the camera to prevent damage to your cable or connector port. Fitting the cage to a quick release plate or DELTA adapter increases compatibility to tripods or shoulder mounts for further stabilization in the field.
