The SmallRig Cage for Canon EOS R8 (4212) is a durable and versatile solution designed to protect your Canon EOS R8 camera while providing ample accessory mounting options for enhanced functionality. This cage locks the camera securely using a 1/4”-20 screw at the bottom and two side lock adapters, ensuring a stable fit. Rubber pads are incorporated to prevent scratches and ensure protection during use. The design allows for full access to all important camera functions, including buttons, card slots, the flip screen, and the battery door, so you can keep your workflow uninterrupted. For accessory mounting, the cage features multiple options such as 1/4”-20 threaded holes, 3/8”-16 threaded holes, and ARRI 3/8”-16 locating holes. These allow you to mount accessories like the Monitor Mount 2903B, Magic Arm 3875, and more. The top cold shoe mount is ideal for attaching microphones (3468) or LED video lights (3286B), while the left NATO rail is compatible with Rotating Side Handles (3260 & 3813) for added comfort and stability during handheld shooting. A built-in QD socket allows you to easily attach a quick-release shoulder strap, and a strap hole provides extra convenience for secure handling. The bottom of the cage features an Arca Swiss quick-release plate, enabling seamless transitions between handheld, tripod, and gimbal (DJI RS 2 / RSC 2 / RS 3 / RS 3 Pro) shooting. Lightweight yet sturdy, the cage ensures you can protect your camera while expanding its creative potential without adding unnecessary bulk.
