Full Camera Cage for Sony FX5 Tilta Xeno Top Handle (NATO) Tilta Xeno Side Handle (NATO)
Introducing the Camera Cage for Sony FX5 Base Kit, to empower and expand your cinema camera for any shooting scenario.
Custom designed for the Sony FX5 camera body, the full cage features three points of contact for a stable, twist-free connection. The cage also breaks down into a lightweight half cage by removing two bottom screws and removing the handle-side bracket. With this setup, users can achieve a lighter and less bulky configuration that still maintains important functionalities. Switch freely between the two modes depending on your setup needs.
Full Or Half Cage, Swap As Needed
Three-point locking keeps Full Cage stable and prevents twisting. Remove the two bottom screws to switch to the lightweight Half Cage.
Standalone Top Plate, Flexible Expansion
Top NATO rail with built-in 3/8″-16 and 1/4″-20 threads adds more flexible accessory options.
Bi-Directional ARCA, Improved Compatibility
The bi-directional slide-in design is compatible with mainstream ARCA quick-release systems.
The Full Cage features many ways to mount various accessories such as 1/4”-20 and 3/8″-16 threads with various locating points, a cold shoe receiver, a NATO Rail for Top Handles, and mounting points for a Single Rod Holder.
The standalone top plate is a NATO Rail that adds multiple threads for more flexible accessory mounting, while 1/4″-20, 3/8″-16, and NATO, open up mounting options in every direction all while maintaining support for the camera’s original XLR handle.
A bi-directional ARCA bottom plate slides in from either direction for fast transitions between tripods and gimbals. A new DJI gimbal center-positioning point on the bottom reduces balancing time and a separate center-positioning point for baseplates helps users build a well-balanced rig.
Reinforced corners on the cage guard against accidental bumps and damage during active filming, giving extra peace of mind for unpredictable shooting environments. A locking HDMI cable clamp keeps cables secure and the signal safe and constant.
All buttons, dials, and screen functionality are fully accessible. Special clearances are designed to ensure nothing is blocked. The cage is also designed to seamlessly integrate with the Nucleus Autofocus Adapter, letting you use the adapter directly with this cage without interference
The camera’s grip is reshaped and when combined with the cage’s grip, follows the natural curve of the palm with a dedicated pinky rest. Elevating the camera’s grip to something truly ergonomic and comfortable.
Also included in this kit are the Xeno Top Handle and Xeno Side Handle, which feature multiple 1/4″-20 connections with locating pins and Cold Shoe Receivers , both attached via NATO rail. These handles also provide more mounting options and better ergonomics and stability for operating.
