Review on πŸ“· Canon 5D Mark III IV CCC2271 Cage by SmallRig by Jacob Jefferson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I wanted to love him but.

I liked the idea of this frame, but it's not tight enough to stop the camera from rotating doesn't matter what I do. I watched a little video on how to tighten it when the camera body hits the "rotation stops", but the real problem is that it doesn't matter how tight you tighten the screw on the bottom of the camera when you holding your camera's handle on the right, it pulls the camera out and then gets bigger and bigger. The only way to fix this is to install a different contact point on the hot shoe. That's why I chose the Versaframe cage. It's not that close to form, but it's very important to me. If there was a way to make this cage tight I would do it in no time, in fact I tried one more time before grabbing it and it just isn't possible to make it tight enough for what I want from the cage. So if you're just looking for mounting points when shooting from a tripod then this is fine, but if you're looking for something that can handle tough handheld shots then this isn't the cage for it.

Pros
  • πŸŽ‰ Compatibility: Canon 5D III/ 5D IV custom and form-fitting frame
Cons
  • I don't remember, but there was something
