WOW that's just crazy I think I need this for my a7IV and 6700.

Don’t lose the screw in the bottom of the cage. Falcam/Ulanzi does not sell them separately and it’s a real challenge to find a replacement.

Hello Jason !! Can you tell me if the 2 buttons on top (c2 & record button) are easily accessible with the cage istalled ? From the video it seems to be a little difficult to press them... I am torn between this cage and the Smallrig's, because it seems to me that the access to these buttons seems to be easier with the Smallrig cage...
@Jason_Hermann 4 ай бұрын
Great question and no they are easy to press in my opinion with no issue.

Does this cage work with the new Falcam backpack quick release mount v2?

i dont do video so this is a photopgraphy question. I have a promediagear flash bracket. Would it make any sense make the switch to attach a flash to a magic arm f22. I would have to buy the cage since thats what falcam has with canon. the benefit would be that most of the time you can go easily between portrait and landscape mode on a tripod and i just have to carry around a magic arm for events... although I have never seen anyone use magic arm for flash vs a L bracket. the youtubers seem to all use this setup for video so is it just weird or impractical?
@Jason_Hermann 4 ай бұрын
No it's not weird or impractical at all in my opinion. These cages and in particular the Falcam quick release system is so versatile you can literally use it for whatever makes sense in your use case. I used to use one of these Custom Brackets Units: geni.us/dhD1 when I was shooting weddings back in the day, and it was really awesome, but it was so heavy all together! There are lots of solutions out there and the quick release has opened up some doors...

@@Jason_Hermann yeah i have the boomrang bracket from ProMediaGear.. i bought the falcam just to see.. it doesnt do the swing action but it is smaller..one thing im not sure about is the cage bc there is some gaps/space on the top portion of the camera..i usualy dont even carry flash, mostly travel photography i wonder if the cage is more bulk than I would like.
@drexplordinaire 4 ай бұрын
@@Jason_Hermann It doesnt work! the flash cord sitting in the hotshoe protrudes forward and half blocks the f22 from sliding in. its like 80% on.. radio transmitter would have the same problem.

@@drexplordinaire oh man that sucks, I'm sorry to hear that.... The flash itself fits though right?
@SlammedCanada 6 ай бұрын
I bought the smallrig cage but thinking of returning it for the Falcam. Which one do you prefer?
@Jason_Hermann 6 ай бұрын
The Falcam quick release is way better in my opinion if you want to quickly build up and breakdown the system. Otherwise both systems offer a ton of options/ configurations and you can combine parts as well using the 1/4 20 mount points if you want as well. I like the way the Falcam cage looks a bit better as well, but that is personal preference...

@@Jason_Hermann thanks for the reply. I have returned the smallrig and my Falcam system has shipped. Just got my 6700 and your tutorials have helped so much. Thank you for the great videos.

No place for your pinky, hopefully they will improve next model.
@Jason_Hermann 7 ай бұрын
Yeah, I'm hoping for a A7000 series with a way more dslr style grip in the future.... The smaller camera does help for using on a gimbal though, and smaller, lighter weight, so it has it's advantages depending on what you are doing.
