The SmallRig 4978 Cage for Canon EOS R5 Mark II is meticulously crafted to provide comprehensive protection and a multitude of expansion interfaces for your camera. The cage features a secure locking mechanism with a bottom 1/4"-20 screw and two side locating blocks, along with integrated silicone pads to prevent scratches on your camera. Designed with precision, the cage does not obstruct access to the camera's buttons, interfaces, dials, flip screen, battery compartment, or card slot.
The cage features multiple 1/4"-20 threaded holes and 1/4"-20 locating holes for compatibility with auxiliary accessories like side handles (ID2093,4346), magic arms (ID3874,3875), monitor mounts (ID2904B), Manfrotto baseplates (ID1280,2458), and L-shaped mount plate kits (IDMD4360). It also incorporates a cold shoe mount for attaching microphones and lighting accessories.
The cage features ordinary strap slots compatible with wrist straps (ID3848,2456), an innovative strap slot for downward hanging for extra lens protection, and a QD interface compatible with QD quick-release shoulder straps (ID4118).
The Arca-Swiss quick-release baseplate allows for direct mounting on Arca-type tripods (ID4060,4353) and DJI RS 2 / RSC 2 / RS 3 / RS 3 Pro / RS 4 / RS 4 Pro stabilisers, enabling swift transitions between stabiliser, handheld, and tripod setups. Moreover, the cage incorporates a magnetic dual head wrench at the bottom for easy assembly and disassembly.
The cage comes with a durable scratch-resistant tempered glass screen protector with a surface hardness of 9H and an IK03 impact resistance test rating.
Note:
Remove the side locating blocks on both sides of the cage before mounting.
The tempered glass screen protector is intentionally designed to be slightly smaller than the screen edges to prevent dust from entering through larger gaps, constituting a normal design feature.
