[0.175 lb] Paired with the Canon R5 and a 19mm Studio rod system making it a hybrid 15mm LWS and 19mm Studio rod systems and has quick release plates everywhere for different payloads.

[Aluminum Alloy] I love this cage. Been looking for a cage that would provide me a quick conversion from shooting video to shooting photos. I can go straight from the tripod and just pull the camera out to go hand held with no cage but still maintain the arca Swiss plate to put it on my gimbal then slide back into the cage where it can be in the full right, pop it off the rails with the cage for handheld mode in a snap with a quick release. just overall a great flexible system. Good job Kondor Blue!

[0.175 lb] This Baseplate is my second item from the brand and for both of them I would say they are smartly designed, lightweight, very rigid with a quality mechanical execution. I'm now a fan of the brand.

[Black] Great cage for the Komodo. I needed a cage that would work easily with the expansion module attached. The bottom of this cage is it’s own separate piece and easy to remove. It works well with the expansion module. Plenty of 1/4 20’s all around to mount accessories to. Two thumbs up...

[0.175 lb] In Love with this! Specially with the bridge plate with Riser!

[Black] Solid build, no wiggle. Looks nice and provides the necessary mounting points and stability for a wide variety of scenarios. Works well with the VR lens too- everything is behind the lens, so no obstructions.

[Black] I decided to go with this one after originally purchasing the non battery grip cage. I really wanted to use my battery grip on my R5 and have two battery in at a time. My only concern here is that it doesn’t seem to allow me to put the clamp because the camera is too long now. It’s a semi big thing for me as I don’t want to be messing up the flimsy micro hdmi on the R5. For that I would give it a 4.5 but there’s no such score.

[0.175 lb] After having seen the top rail of the SmallRig Komodo cage consistently fail and snap, design quality, affordability and flexibility were front of mind for me making this purchase.

8sinn hasn't disappointed. It's basically the Timmy ribs side handles but with full body support. A great feature of this cage is the inclusion of a support foot, so that lens mount adapters such as the Kippertie Revolva and Metabones can be attached securely without lens wiggle. An absolute must.

The 8Sinn cage (without the top rail) is also compatible with the outrigger handle, which is what decided it for me.

The construction quality feels rock solid and frankly more than I was expecting. I've been really impressed. I owned a Tilta cage for a BMPCC6K previously and the construction quality wasn't even close to this cage. Whatever material Tilta cages use seem to have more inherit flexibility, almost like you can squeeze them if you applied enough pressure, where as the 8Sinn straps to the Komodo and doesn't let go.

One downside is that my 8Sinn package didn't arrive with a correctly sized hex key for one of the screws, so make sure when assembling you have a set on hand. If I was to wish for anything it would be for more mounting options away from the side of the camera and further towards the rear of the rig, such as where the logo sits. Ultimately you still might find yourself needing to run a cheese plate as you rig out your camera but as a building block this is a great start.

[0.175 lb] It's great for komodo, and you can attach many other things to it.

[Aluminum Alloy] Most cages for the Canon R5 C (and R5) block your path to change the filter in the Canon filter adapter.

This cage leaves that path open. It additionally is build very solid and the quality is excellent.
