SHAPE Sony A7R III Cage

Specifically designed for the Sony A7R III camera, the form-fitting cage offers additional protection and securely locks the camera to the cage. It also provides easy access to all controls and ports as well as multiple attachment points for accessories. For handheld shooting, the side 15mm Rod clamps, located at the back of the cage, are designed for quickly securing the new ergonomic Mini Push-Button Wooden Side Handles with Padded Straps using a single ratchet knob on each side (sold separately).

Easy Access

The SHAPE Sony A7R III Cage enables easy access to all of the camera’s features such as the control buttons, the side outputs, the memory card, the battery compartment and the lens release button, allowing you to save time while shooting. Further, the support between the lens and the camera grip is designed to anticipate a clearing for the fingers when the camera is handheld, allowing an ergonomic grip.

Ergonomic Design

This ergonomic cage is easy to assemble and disassemble. The components don’t need to be removed to install the camera that is fixed with a 1/4"-20 captive slotted base screw integrated into the cage, using the threaded hole underneath it. The position is secured with the back and sides of the cage, so it doesn’t move forward when equipped with a heavier lens. You can also attach a delta adapter plate underneath the cage to mount it on a quick release plate to rapidly switch from a tripod to a handheld setup.

Additionally, all the doors and latches are fully operable when the camera is in the cage. Its easy-to-use and clever design enables you to operate the camera without having to remove the cable doors, and the strap hooks can remain attached to the camera while inserted in the cage. It is also equipped with an efficient cable retainer system for all three of the left side cables to secure their use. The cage is also compatible with a full-sized HDMI cable protector lock to secure the use of your HDMI 4K cable.

NEW SHAPE Wooden Push-Button Top Handle

The new ergonomic and easily removable SHAPE Top Handle was designed to provide the required space for mounting the Sony XLR-K2M audio unit. It offers a comfortable and secure wooden grip for carrying your camera and securing accessories.  It also features the SHAPE Push-Button Technology, enabling you to balance the weight and rotate the handle in the position you need on a 360° axis.

SHAPE 15mm LW Clamp for Top Handle

Made of CNC Aluminum, the 15mm LW Clamp for Top Handle can be easily attached to our new SHAPE Wooden Push-Button Top Handle. The clamp is designed to support a 15mm rod such as the SHAPE REVOLT EVF Mount Bracket. The ratchet knob clamp lets you adjust and strongly fix the position of the 15mm rod to the SHAPE Top Handle.

SHAPE Sony A7R III Quick Release Rod Base System

The cage can easily snap in and be quickly removed from its 15mm LW base by pressing the release button at the rear of the mount for handheld shooting.

SHAPE Metabones® Adapter Support Bracket

SHAPE created a removable Metabones® Adapter Support Bracket specifically designed for the Sony A7R III camera that is integrated in the cage. Fixed with 2 screws, the bracket’s height is easily adjustable and provides 15mm of vertical adjustment. It supports the weight and reduces the stress on the camera lens mount.

SHAPE Sony A7R III Horizontal 15mm Rod Clamps

The SHAPE Sony A7R III Cage provides a 15mm Rod Clamp on both sides, allowing convenient positioning of the Horizontal 15mm Rods on each side of the cage.

SHAPE 15mm Rods (10")

The CNC machined 10"-long 15mm LW rods enable you to use available rod mounted accessories such as a follow focus or a matte box.
