Form-Fitting Cage for Enhanced Protection and Access:
The core of this kit is the precision-machined aluminum alloy cage, custom-designed to perfectly fit the contours of the Canon EOS R6 Mark II.3 This form-fitting design ensures that all camera buttons, dials, battery compartments, and card slots remain completely unobstructed, allowing for seamless operation. The cage wraps around the camera, providing essential protection against bumps, scratches, and minor impacts, safeguarding your valuable investment during demanding shoots.
Integrated Mounting Points for Extensive Accessory Support:
The SmallRig cage is engineered with a multitude of integrated mounting points, transforming your R6 Mark II into a versatile rigging platform. These include:
- 1/4″-20 and 3/8″-16 Threaded Holes: Strategically placed throughout the cage for attaching a wide array of accessories such as magic arms, external monitors, microphones, LED lights, and more.
- ARRI-Style Anti-Twist Mounts: Dedicated 3/8″-16 threads with ARRI-style anti-twist pins provide a secure and stable connection for accessories, preventing unwanted rotation.
- Cold Shoe Mounts: Multiple cold shoe mounts allow for direct attachment of microphones, small LED lights, or wireless receivers.
- NATO Rails: Integrated NATO rails on the top and side of the cage provide quick-release attachment points for NATO-compatible handles, clamps, and other accessories.
Comfortable and Ergonomic Top Handle:
The included top handle is designed for enhanced comfort and control during handheld shooting. It features an ergonomic grip, reducing fatigue during long takes, and provides additional mounting points for accessories, such as a monitor mount or another cold shoe. The top handle allows for low-angle shooting and provides a secure grab point when moving the camera.
Secure HDMI/USB-C Cable Clamp:
The kit includes a dedicated HDMI/USB-C cable clamp, a crucial component for preventing accidental disconnections and damage to your camera’s ports. This clamp securely locks your HDMI and USB-C cables in place, providing peace of mind when using external recorders, monitors, or transfer devices, ensuring uninterrupted signal flow.
Built-in Arca-Type Quick Release Plate:
The bottom of the cage typically features an integrated Arca-type quick-release plate. This allows for rapid mounting and dismounting of the camera onto Arca-compatible tripods, gimbals, or other support systems, streamlining your setup and breakdown process.

Constructed from lightweight yet durable aluminum alloy, the entire kit is built to withstand the rigors of professional use. The high-quality machining and anodized finish ensure longevity and a professional aesthetic that complements your camera.
