SmallRig Cage Model #4980 for Nikon Z50 I recently purchased the SmallRig Cage Model #4980 Nikon Z50ii from Adorama, and it arrived in just two days! I decided to modify it to fit my old Nikon Z50. The modifications involved shaving off 1/8" inches from two locations: the top-right corner where the camera strap goes and the battery compartment. While the fit isn't perfect, it works well enough for my needs. I have to admit, I feel a bit foolish for modifying a brand new rig, but I'm also proud of my improvisation skills. The cage now provides a secure and functional setup for my Nikon Z50. Overall, if you're comfortable with a bit of DIY, this cage can be adapted for the Nikon Z50 even it's spec out for Z50ii. Just be prepared for some trial and error!
