The Wooden Camera Director's Monitor Cage v3 holds any monitor up to 9 inches, measured diagonally, attached through its top, bottom or rear 1/4"-20 mounting points. Wooden Camera says the v3 is 33% lighter than the previous model.

It arrives mostly assembled, with rod-based height adjustment and carbon fibre hand grips that move on built-in 15mm clamps and fold in, without tools, for packing. The battery mounting plate has V-Mount and Gold Mount attachment points and swings away in both directions for access to the back of the monitor and any wireless receivers, and it comes off when both swing clamps are loosened. Two Teradek mounting areas hold up to two wireless receivers side by side.

A built-in baby pin clamp with a locking thumbwheel mounts the cage on a stand. In the box are a sun shade that snaps to the frame and doubles as a protective cover, a padded neck strap with four mounting points and quick-release clips, a cable tie and the mounting screws. The cage weighs 476 g and measures 279.4 x 177.8 x 101.6 mm.
