Rated 5 out of 5

Much better than the one that came with...

Same Smallrig quality, solid. Love the side door, allows the one r to slide in flawlessly and without having to remove the 1-inch. Both screw and go pro mounts are handy too.

About SmallRig Vlogging Cage

Because the SmallRig Vlogging Cage and Microphone Adapter Holder is specifically engineered for the GoPro HERO8 Black Camera, it offers a perfect fit for secure and stable filming. Crafted from lightweight yet durable aluminum, this compact vlogging cage safeguards your camera while maintaining full access to all buttons, ports, and the battery compartment.

To install, simply slide your GoPro HERO8 Black Camera into the cage after removing the camera's side battery door, and lock it into place with a gentle press on the cover. The cage is equipped with two cold shoe mounts and multiple 1/4"-20 holes, providing ample space for mounting a variety of accessories such as a microphone, a small LED light, or the SmallRig Cold Shoe Mount 1593 or 1960.

The GoPro microphone adapter holder is conveniently positioned on the right side of the cage and can be securely fastened using the two included 1/4"-20 screws. The cage's folding fingers at the bottom allow for easy attachment to a range of GoPro mounts and surfaces. Additionally, a central 1/4"-20 mount enables the camera to be affixed to a 1/4"-20 tripod for added versatility.

The cage's side panel is designed for quick release, facilitating swift battery switches. Plus, you can charge your camera via the USB-C port without needing to open the panel. The front of the cage features a filter ring that accepts filters with a 52mm thread for enhanced image quality.

Please note, the camera's original battery door must be removed before using the cage. However, you can still use the original battery door by first removing the cage's side panel. If the GoPro mic adapter holder is not required, consider purchasing the SmallRig CVG2505. This high-quality vlogging cage and microphone adapter holder is an essential tool for any GoPro HERO8 Black Camera user seeking to enhance their filming capabilities.
