Tilta’s camera cage is a reliable and secure camera mounting platform, but it does not compromise build quality for flexibility. Five of the cage’s six sides carry multiple 1/4-20″ accessory threads for accommodating multiple accessories of diverse sizes and shapes, and two cold shoe mounts provide ideal points for rigging microphones, receivers, and more. Additional options include a side-mounted NATO rail and a 3/8″-20 female thread on the bottom of the cage. No additional tools are necessary to affix the cage to your Canon R8, as a magnetic flathead screwdriver is held on the bottom of the cage.
