Built to Support Professional Sony FX5 Productions
The Tilta Full Camera Cage for Sony FX5 Pro Kit is engineered for filmmakers who need a dependable foundation for demanding productions. Precision-machined specifically for the Sony FX5, the cage secures the camera with a rigid three-point mounting system that minimizes flex and twisting while creating a stable platform for monitors, wireless systems, microphones, handles, and other production accessories. Whether you're shooting handheld, locked off, or moving between support systems, this kit helps you build a camera rig that works the way you do.
Adapt Your Setup for Every Production
Designed with flexibility in mind, the cage easily converts from a full cage into a streamlined half cage by removing the handle-side bracket and two bottom screws. This allows you to reduce weight and bulk when a smaller footprint is preferred without sacrificing essential mounting capabilities. The modular design also maintains compatibility with the original Sony XLR top handle, making it easy to transition between lightweight and fully accessorized configurations.
Accessory Mounting Without Limits
Every side of the cage is optimized to expand your creative options. Multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded mounting points with locating pins, integrated NATO rails, cold shoe receivers, and dedicated rod holder mounting locations make it simple to build a customized production rig. The included NATO top plate adds even more mounting flexibility while preserving full access to Sony's original handle, giving users countless ways to position accessories exactly where they're needed.
Fast Transitions Between Camera Supports
The included bi-directional Arca baseplate allows the camera to slide in from either direction, making moves between tripods, gimbals, and other support systems quick and efficient. Integrated alignment points designed for DJI gimbals help speed up balancing, while additional positioning references simplify building a properly balanced camera configuration for changing production needs.
Protection That Never Gets in the Way
Reinforced corners help shield the FX5 from the inevitable bumps and impacts that come with production work, while a locking HDMI cable clamp helps keep video connections secure throughout long shooting days. Carefully engineered cutouts preserve unrestricted access to the camera's controls, ports, battery compartment, and LCD screen, allowing you to operate the FX5 naturally without removing the cage. The design also provides seamless compatibility with the Tilta Nucleus Autofocus Adapter for an even more integrated workflow.
Professional Handling for Longer Shooting Days
The included Xeno Top Handle provides a comfortable, elevated grip with additional clearance for easier handheld operation. Integrated mounting threads and a cold shoe receiver offer convenient attachment points for monitors, microphones, or wireless accessories. The Xeno Side Handle mounts via NATO rail, features adjustable positioning for personalized comfort, and incorporates a textured silicone grip that improves stability during extended handheld shooting.
Completing the kit is the height-adjustable 15mm LWS Arca Baseplate, allowing you to precisely position your camera to maintain the industry-standard 85mm optical center. This ensures compatibility with a wide range of rod-mounted accessories including follow focus systems, lens supports, and matte boxes while giving your rig the flexibility to evolve with each production.
