The C5 Camera Cage from YELANGU protects your mirrorless camera while providing a comfortable top handle and multiple accessory mounting options, including a 15mm LWS rod system. This lightweight CNC-machined aluminum cage is compatible with the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-GH4, Sony a7 series, and Sony Alpha a6500, 6300, and 6000 cameras.

The rod system, two cold shoes, and multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads enable you to mount items like monitors and external microphones. The C5 cage maintains access to most camera controls and ports including the battery compartment. A knurled 1/4"-20 screw enables you to quickly attach your camera, and the bottom of the cage incorporates both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 tripod threads. Use the included clamp to prevent accidental cable disconnections.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is arca plate integrated into cage bottom or does it also need a plate? What arca plates are recommended for bottom and side of cage for tripod portrait and landscape attachment?

A: An Arca plate is not integrated in this cage.

Q: 2. Can this fit A6600? Thanks.

A: The size of the a6600 and the a6500 are very similar. The only big size difference is the handgrip. The handgrip on the a6600 is larger. I can see the top of the cage can get in the way of the buttons on the top of the handgrip. Other than that it believe it should fit, however, I can not guarantee that it will.

Q: 3. Is this compatible with the canon sl2

A: Yes, the Canon SL2 should fit in this universal cage.

Q: 4. I purchased the Ikan Stratus Cage for my Sony A7iii after I was told on the phone by someone from B&H that this cage will work with my Sachtler Ace XL fluid head. But so far as I can tell, that doesn't appear to be the case. The screw and stud on the Sachtler plate don't match up with the base attached to the Stratus cage. The stud on the plate (next to the screw) prevents the cage from being completely secure. Facing one direction, the stud rubs against the edge of the Stratus base to prevent a level tightening. Facing the other direction, the stud isn't far enough away to fall into the larger screw hole in the Stratus base. The distance between the screw and the stud on the Sachtler plate is not far enough for the stud to extend past the Stratus base or slip into its larger screw hole. Is there an adaptor for this or a workaround?

A: The cage itself has an Arca-Swiss base so you can use this adapter for a firm attachment to your tripod plate BH #SUMAC14: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1026970-REG/sunwayfoto_mac_14_arca_manfrotto_compatible.html

Q: 5. Does this fit the A6600?

A: Yes it does. The Touchscreen on the A6600 is the same size as A6500. It will be compatible with the A6600 as well.

Q: 6. How do I attach it to my tripod?

A: Hello,There are three 1/4-20 mounting holes in the bottom of the base that can be used for mounting to a tripod. Alternately, you could mount a 15mm dovetail plate to your tripod, and slide the cage onto that. I recommend the TT-C16 or TT-C16-A7 for the dovetail plate, as this cage requires that the plate have raised edges to accommodate the tripod-mounting section of the base.

Q: 7. WIll this fit the A6100?

A: Yes it will. This is compatible with the A6100 as well.

Q: 8. is there a mount at the bottom of the cage or baseplate? I would like to mount it on my steadicam

A: There is a threaded mount at the bottom of the cage and also the base plate. For steadicam mounting, we recommend using the Tilta TT-C16 plate.
