Review on πŸ“· CAMVATE Universal Adjustable Camera Cage Fit for Both Right and Left Handle Cameras (Includes Left Handle Grip) by Jose Strong

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great camera cage that is extremely versatile and fits a wide range of cameras.

The Camvate Universal Adjustable Camera Cage is just that, versatile and customizable. I bought this cage because I was trying to use an accessory (Sony XLR-K1M microphone system) on my Sony A6000 that didn't fit another cage I had. I've looked at every cell that says it's compatible with my A6000, but none of them will work with this particular accessory as the hot shoe cable is connected so that the cable goes to the front instead of the cameras. rear as you would expect. This cable interferes with the placement of all other cages. I chose the Camvate Universal Adjustable Camera Cage after looking at the dimensions and indeed it fit perfectly. It was only later that I discovered that the XLR-K1M was not compatible with my A6000, but I liked the cage so much that I decided to keep it and use it anyway, replacing another manufacturer's cage (which still is a great cage but I like this one). One is better.) The wooden side and top grips are also very nice, and two different length extensions are included to adjust the camera for a variety of heights. I am VERY happy with this device.

Pros
  • Lots of 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes
Cons
  • Slightly torn
