The SmallRig Cage for Sony FX30 and FX3 equips you with the accessory ports needed to build a comfortable handheld rig, plus helps to protect your setup. Key features include:
- Multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 accessory ports
- HDMI cable clamp to protect signal stability (HDMI cable not included)
- Swing-open hinge near grip for battery access
- Cold shoe for holding mics or LEDs
Designed specifically for both the FX30 and FX3, this camera cage provides extensive expandability for both horizontal and vertical shooting. The grip area has a hinge arm for accessing the battery slot and there are a plethora of accessory mount options all over the cage for attaching a monitor, follow focus, Magic Arm, side handles, microphones, and LEDs (there is also cold shoe for mounting). This is technically a “half cage” setup, as the main unit does not wrap all the way around the camera. Instead, there is an included NATO rail top plate you can use if your rig isn’t using a Sony XLR handle or you want to use a different handle (handle not included). Check out the Sony FX30 and FX3 for camera kits that include the XLR handle unit.
There are dedicated slots on the cage for a strap and included in this kit is a foam-padded, wear-resistant microfiber hand strap. The 4.5" NATO rail and handle extension are great add-ons for the XLR handle unit. A standard Arca-style plate at the bottom allows for easy switching between tripod and handheld modes and an HDMI cable clamp will secure your cable to the rig. Overall this SmallRig cage will improve your shooting experience with the FX30 or FX3.
