The SmallRig Cage Kit 5281 is designed for professional videographers and cinematographers using the Blackmagic PYXIS 6K or 12K cameras who require a robust, modular rigging solution. This kit provides significant structural support and versatile mounting options for high-end production accessories, though its modular nature requires users to carefully plan their configuration to avoid excess weight or hardware interference.

The design accounts for critical camera functions, but depending on the specific modular configuration of the baseplate, you may need to adjust your setup to ensure clear access to the battery compartment.
Yes, the kit includes a dedicated LiDAR bracket and integrated rod clamps, making it fully compatible with most modern follow focus systems.
Yes, the SmallRig 5281 is specifically designed to fit the form factor of both the Blackmagic PYXIS 6K and 12K cameras.
HawkLock technology provides a faster and more secure mounting experience for NATO-compatible accessories compared to traditional screw-in or friction-based mounts.
Yes, the cage kit is modular, meaning you can detach the right-sided plate if your shooting configuration does not require it.
Verify that the accessory is properly seated in the ARRI locating holes and check that the mounting screw is fully tightened with a hex key.
Adjust the screw tension on the cable clamp bracket to allow for slight cable flexibility without putting pressure on the camera's internal ports.
To set up the kit, align the camera body with the baseplate and use the provided hex keys to secure the mounting screws. It is recommended to attach the cable clamp early in the process to ensure proper cable management for your HDMI and SDI runs. The cage is specifically tailored for the Blackmagic PYXIS 6K and 12K; do not attempt to force it onto other camera bodies. To maintain the kit, periodically check the mounting screws for tightness, especially after heavy transport. Clean the threads and surfaces with a dry cloth; avoid using harsh lubricants on the locking mechanisms.
