SmallRig Hawklock Cage Kit for Sony FX5 Camera

SmallRig "HawkLock" Cage for Sony FX5 6776 is designed to protect camera and provide accessory mounting points. The modular cage consists of a NATO rail and a U-shaped cage. The NATO rail is secured on the top via two 1/4"-20 screws and removed to allow installing the original XLR top handle; the U-shaped cage is fixed via 1/4"-20 screws on both sides and at the bottom to prevent twisting, with a cushion against scratches. At the battery door there is a hinge arm that fits camera curve for improved grip experience for little finger.

A dedicated HDMI cable clamp protects interfaces to ensure stable signal transmission. The patented self-developed quick release structure (named HawkLock) covers the NATO rail and Arca-Swiss plate, and is used in conjunction with HawkLock eco-accessories, such as the Top Handle 4483, the Side Handle 4485, the Arca-Swiss Clamp 4486, etc., to achieve smooth sliding in and self-locking to improve the efficiency of disassembling and reassembling; and at the same time, it is compatible with the traditional cold shoe, NATO Clamp, and the Arca-Swiss Clamp eco-accessories.

In addition, the cage is built-in 1/4 --20 threaded holes, ARRI 3/8"-16 Locating Hole, 1/4"-20 locating holes, QD socket, strap slot, and can be expanded with accessories such as Magic Arm 3873, Top Handle 2165C, Rod Clamp 3598, QD Shoulder Strap, Hand Strap 3848, and Shoulder Strap PSC2428 for professional creation.
