Compatible with any monitor up to 9″, attaching via the top, bottom or rear 1/4″-20 mounting points. It can be used with the included neck strap or placed on a stand with the integrated baby pin receiver.
Carbon Fibre Rods
The cage uses carbon fibre parts to make it 33% lighter compared to the V2 cage.

Easy Access
The cage has a rear swinging bracket which can be used to mount a wireless receiver and battery mount. It can be swung away to either direction by releasing the lock on the opposite side. Even if you had a newer SmallHD Bolt type monitor, the cage could still be useful to use for the handgrips, baby pin receiver and battery mounts.
