Designed to fit your Leica Q3, this Camera Cage Kit from SmallRig includes an HDMI cable clamp and a full cage that protects your device while expanding its mounting capabilities. This sleek cage is constructed with durable titanium alloy and is designed to match the aesthetics of the Leica camera. It maintains access to camera ports and controls and secures to the camera via a 1/4"-20 screw and M.25 screw on the side. Multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 ARRI anti-twist threads allow you to mount accessories like articulating arms or handles.

The included HDMI/USB cable clamp attaches to the side of the cage with integrated thumbscrews and works to protect the camera's ports. One shoe mount accommodates an optional light, microphone, or secondary monitor. Dual strap slots and a silicone base pad improve security. A built-in Arca-type plate efficiently transitions your camera from handheld to tripod-mounted shooting with compatible equipment.

Q: 8. Hi, This cage ships with a SmallRig 1639 HDMI cable clamp. I have lost mine. Again, I am looking for a SmallRig 1693 (that’s a three-nine.) If you search B&H for SmallRig 16 three-nine, the search brings up SmallRig 16 nine-three (the wrong one.) After searching that product, another customer asked B&H customer service to help find a replacement for the C70 cage cable clamp (which we know is a 16 three nine.) The answer did not address the question asked. Can you help me (us) find some 16 three-nine cable clamps so we can use our cages?
