A: The Kondor Blue PRO-BLADE SSD Recording Handle has a standard NATO connection that could work with other cage brands. Just make sure your cage has a NATO mount. Also, you can add a NATO rail to a cage that does not have a NATO rail. SmallRig Quick Release NATO Rail (1.6) BH #SM1409

A: The Kondor Blue PRO-BLADE SSD Recording Handle with 4TB SSD Drive Kit supports up to 4tb or larger Pro Blade SSD's. It depends on the camera model you are using though.

[0.415 lb] 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. 5

[0.415 lb] 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! 5

[0.415 lb] Great cage for the price, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone considering a cage for their Canon R,R6 or R5! The Kondor Blue cage fits my R5 perfectly and allows for almost any mounting configurations neatly and without allot of hassle. The top handle breaks down and builds back up in seconds with the nato rail system. The remote trigger works flawlessly once you set the shutter button to start recording video on a full press. The cage was shipped to South Africa via DHL and I have no complaints there. 5

[0.415 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. 5

[0.415 lb] 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. 5

[0.415 lb] This inexpensive piece attaches via a 1/4 20” and saves you the need to hold that extra gear. Mounting the cold shoe plate to the side of your camera or gear cage is like having another arm, and saves you from a jumbled mess. For $10, this is a must have for folks who use cold shoe mounts daily. 5

[0.415 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. 5
