The SmallRig 6965 Cage for Insta360 X6 features a full-metal design that provides all-around protection for the camera body while supporting accessory mounting. Paired with the included lens protector, it offers extra protection for the protruding panoramic lens during storage and transport, helping reduce the risk of scratches or accidental damage.
For added convenience between shots, the cage includes a flip-out top stand. This allows the camera to rest securely on a tabletop when not in use and helps prevent the lens from scratches.
A magnetic quick release mount and a 1/4"-20 threaded hole on the bottom support the use of a tripod or selfie stick and allow quick switching between horizontal and vertical shooting. A cold shoe mount on the left side supports accessories such as a microphone or LED light, while a 1/4"-20 locating hole on the right side can be used with a selfie stick or magic arm. These mounting options make it easy to adapt the setup for different shooting scenarios.
Built-in pogo pin contacts on the bottom allow compatible accessories, such as a charging handle or base, to connect directly without removing the cage. This improves convenience during extended shooting and reduces the need to repeatedly plug and unplug cables.
For outdoor use, built-in wind-noise-reducing foam on both sides helps reduce wind noise during high-speed riding and in strong wind conditions, contributing to clearer audio recording.
Additional thoughtful details include a cutout battery access design for battery replacement without removing the frame, as well as inner silicone pads that help prevent scratches on the camera body. Made of aluminum alloy, the cage weighs just 60.0 g (2.1 oz), delivering a lightweight yet durable design.
