I'm feeling it

I think it should come with rail connectors, but I am happy with it.

Simple, durable, and extremely customizable

Simple, durable cage with ridiculous amount of customization options. I bought with NATO rails, wooden side grip, and top handle. Gives me great weight balance to go along with the IBIS of the A7III.

Item is not recommended it’s another expensive aluminum when you have no choice then you have to buy it . I do not recommend it to others

Item I bought and returned was almost the same as this one , the rep of SmallRig is like fire after me when I wrote the truth about it . This item is way too expensive for an Aluminum peace of garbage as she tells me our low prices ya when a worker at the factory make less than $ a day . The only reason I bought it that there is no one in the USA makes this product even for a US product I will pay triple the price so I can support my country and people will have jobs . But we all are idiots buying the garbage of China since none of the other losers presidents gave us a choice but Trump is teaching them a great lesson hope all junk from China will stop . No one can be better or stronger that the Zusa

Sony a6500 Small Rig

The small rig is an amazing addition to the a6500. On top of protection and stability of additional equipment it looks clean and gives it a rugged look.
