SmallRig 6029 Rhinoceros Cage for Sony Alpha 7 V / 7R V / 7 IV
The SmallRig 6029 Rhinoceros Cage is designed for photographers and videographers who want maximum stability in a lightweight and compact camera rig. Made from premium aluminum, steel, and carbon fiber, this camera cage delivers exceptional strength without adding unnecessary weight. It is ideal for long shooting sessions, handheld filmmaking, tripod use, and gimbal setups.
Lightweight Yet Extremely Strong
What sets the SmallRig Rhinoceros Cage apart is its use of carbon fiber. Known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, carbon fiber helps reduce the overall weight of your camera setup while maintaining the rigidity needed to support multiple accessories.
The open-top design keeps your camera controls unobstructed, giving you easy access to buttons and dials while shooting.
Maximum Stability Without Movement
The SmallRig 6029 uses a secure three-point locking system consisting of:
- Bottom mounting screw
- Locating pin
- Additional side M2.5 screw
This system prevents unwanted camera movement or rotation inside the cage. Integrated rubber pads help protect your camera from scratches, while all ports and the battery compartment remain fully accessible.
Multiple Accessory Mounting Options
Despite its lightweight and streamlined design, the Rhinoceros Cage offers extensive mounting options for building a professional camera rig:
- Multiple 1/4”-20 and ARRI 3/8”-16 mounting points
- NATO rail for quick accessory mounting
- Cold shoe mount for microphones, monitors, or lights
- QD socket for attaching shoulder or carrying straps
A hinged battery door provides additional comfort and improves grip when shooting handheld.
Ready for Gimbals and Tripods
The integrated Arca-Swiss quick-release plate makes it easy to switch between handheld shooting, a tripod, and a gimbal. The cage is optimized for the DJI RS series, including the DJI RS 4, RS 4 Pro, and RS 3, allowing you to mount your camera on compatible gimbals without requiring an additional quick-release plate.
