Assembly is quick and easy, and the Advanced Kit contains everything you need to get shooting in seconds.

Universal Camera Cage
With the Halo Universal Camera Cage, any camera can be set up for rigging in moments. The Halo forms a square around the camera body, striking a balance between clearance for large cameras and a compact form factor. This means that any camera, from the compact Sony FX30 up to the ultra-powerful RED V-RAPTOR XL, can be mounted.

Dovetail Design
Complete the cage with our Universal Dovetail, which mounts via the included 15mm LWS Rod Bracket to form a base for any camera. The Dovetail is the only one of its kind to have dual compatibility with Manfrotto tripods and DJI gimbals, allowing you to seamlessly transition from mount to mount.

Get Creative
The Advanced Kit also features our Create Baseplate: the perfect mounting point for your setup. With 1/4" and 3/8" screw threads in the base and a multi-standard dovetail receiver on top, the Baseplate perfectly complements the Universal Dovetail for easy static mounting. The upper and lower dovetail channels make the Baseplate compatible with Arca, DJI and Manfrotto dovetail plates; further expanding the definition of "Universal".

Clearance for Compact Cameras
The issue with a majority of hybrid and compact cinema cameras is the minimal distance from the lens mount to the base of the camera, which causes lenses to collide with many standard dovetails. With the included Arca Riser and Arca Receiver, the camera is elevated so that lenses don't clash with the dovetail. This doubles as a quick-release system, meaning that you can easily remove your camera from the rig for adjusting settings or swapping out lenses.

Convenient Carrying
For handheld shooting, the Halo Advanced Kit comes with a low-profile Short Create Top Handle which mounts to the top of the cage via the integrated NATO rail. The handle has a small mechanism that clicks into place when exactly centered, optimizing the balance for transporting the camera.
