Tilta Camera Cage Pro Kit for Sony FX5 (Black)

Get a full protective cage rig for your Sony FX5 digital cinema camera with the lightweight and modular Camera Cage Pro Kit from Tilta. This cage kit comprises a modular full cage for the FX5, an adjustable-height baseplate, a pair of 15mm rods, a Xeno NATO-clamp top handle, a Xeno NATO-clamp side handle, an Arca-type bottom plate, and an HDMI cable clamp.

Integrate this black Tilta Xeno Top Handle into your camera cage configuration for improved low-angle shooting. The top handle secures to your cage via a NATO clamp. Multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads throughout the handle allow you to attach articulating arms, cable clamps, or other accessories. A single cold shoe slot accommodates a shotgun microphone or wireless transmitter. The handle's silicone grip makes for an ergonomic and anti-slip handgrip.

This black Xeno Side Handle with NATO Mount from Tilta mounts securely on the right or left side of your camera cage, offering improved handheld stability thanks to its NATO rail clamp with a lever lock. It has a comfortable, nonslip silicone grip and can be adjusted vertically up to 1.6" for optimal placement. The handle has one shoe mount and three anti-twist 1/4"-20 threads for mounting accessories and comes with a magnetic 3mm Allen key.

This Height-Adjustable Arca-Type 15mm LWS Baseplate from Tilta features a 15mm LWS rod clamp baseplate to accommodate standard 15mm rods, and a quick release top plate is included for integration with Arca-type tripod systems. The system is height adjustable within a 0.78" range to accommodate a follow focus system or matte box, and it features a range of 0.71 to 1.5" from the rod center to the Arca receiver.

A dovetail clamp on the base is compatible with Tilta dovetail plates, and there are also 1/4"-20 threads on the bottom for mounting onto a tripod, plate, or rig. The Arca-type quick release plate features a 1/4"-20 screw to secure your camera. The baseplate can support a camera rig load weighing up to 10 lb.

Tilta's 8" Threaded 15mm Rod is a 8" rod with female threading on both ends. This allows you to use optional threaded rod adapters to extend the length. As a standard practice, Tilta chamfers one end of their rods and leaves the other end with a straight cut. The chamfering makes it easier to slide accessories onto the rod, while the end with the straight cut makes for a smoother rod join.

The rod is made from machined aluminum for a balance between weight and strength, and then anodized black for wear and corrosion resistance. Please note that there is no industry-wide standard for support rod threading, so when sourcing optional rod extenders, it is best to stay within one brand.
