Product Information
Full details
The SmallRig Full Camera Cage (3083B) is designed for content creators and vloggers using the GoPro HERO 9, 10, or 11 who need to mount external accessories while maintaining full camera functionality. It provides a secure, protective frame with integrated mounts for microphones and lights, making it an essential upgrade for professional-grade audio and video setups. A key caveat is that while it enhances expandability, it adds a small amount of bulk to the sleek action camera profile.

Troubleshooting
Camera feels loose inside the cage
Ensure the side panel is fully clicked into the locked position and that the camera is pressed flush against the back of the frame.
Charging cable does not fit through the side panel
Verify that you are using a standard, low-profile USB-C connector; some extra-thick braided cables may not fit the opening.
Difficulty releasing the quick-lock latch
Push the release button firmly while applying slight inward pressure on the cover to relieve tension on the mechanism.
