It would be 5 stars, but.

Because it is only half a cage it will flex when the handle is added. I wouldn't want to use this with a heavy or expensive setup.

Pros
  • FOR MANFROTTO 501PL
Cons
  • Very Expensive

Solid for my needs: tripod and monopod accessories

I wanted a cage that had everything I needed without all the fluff or weirdness. I shoot with many different types of settings and it's great to be able to break in the camera quickly. I didn't really have much trouble with the shift mentioned by others before locking my BMPCC 6k as recommended here above and since I did it the camera has been locked, no shift. I don't usually use many accessories that attach to the cage, just the drive, top and side handles. For the price it was a great…

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Slightly torn

The most versatile cage in my opinion!

With the full cage and this cage I find this cage much more versatile. I'm going to break this into two parts; the QR plate and the cell itself. First the QR plate. Honestly that's my favorite part of the cage lol. This is a Manfrotto 501 style plate so the QR plate is already attached even when you step out of the cage. The QR plate has anti-twist pins that fit the bottom of the camera, meaning it won't curl. In addition, the front of the plate is threaded to use the Metabones Support Adapter…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Spare Availability
