Q: 1. Will this work when the Atomos is in the smallrig cage?

A: Looking at a photo of the back of the SmallRig Atomos 7" Monitor Cage, BH #SM2008, we believe this should clear the back and work when used. However we are not aware of this specific combination being tested. You would need to try it out to see the results. https://bit.ly/2oUYl56

Q: 2. Will this work correctly with a Sony FX6?

A: Yes it will however, It is safest to use Official Sony Batteries with Sony Digital Cinema Cameras.

In the event that the FX6 rejects the battery via firmware you can bypass it by using the battery's D-tap output to power the camera instead.
