Wooden Camera Unified DSLR Cage (Small)
Build up your DSLR or mirrorless camera for professional video and cinema production with Wooden Camera's Unified DSLR Cage. The cage itself surrounds your camera on three sides, adding a measure of protection to mirrorless cameras like Sony's a7 series and Panasonic's GH series, as well as smaller DSLR cameras like Canon's Rebel line and Nikon's D3000, D5000, and D7000 lines. 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes line the top and sides of the cage for securing accessories such as articulating arms. The top of the cage leaves the space above the camera's accessory shoe unobstructed for mounting audio accessories, such as XLR adapters. An HDMI cable clamp is integrated with the cage's vertical post to protect the camera's HDMI port from cable snags, as well as all necessary mounting screws and an articulating wooden top handle.- Included with the cage, the reversible top handle has a wooden handgrip which provides additional ways to comfortably handhold your camera. A cold shoe at the top can be used to mount a microphone, monitor, or other camera-top accessory. The handle folds down when packing your bag and can be alternately secured onto the left vertical rod for a secondary grip.
- The base of the cage is a Manfrotto quick release dovetail which can directly secure your camera to Manfrotto standard quick release plates and tripod heads. Quick release functionality works the same as existing Manfrotto plates. Simply turn the thumbscrew and depress the release pin to slide the plate backward out of the base.
- A built-in lens adapter support system is integrated into the base. This provides extra security when attaching lens adapters with 1/4"-20 threads on the bottom, like the separately available Wooden Camera PL adapters and most Metabones adapters.
- With the seamless addition of Wooden Camera's Unified DSLR 15mm Baseplate, you can add 15mm LWS rods for accessorizing your DSLR or mirrorless camera. Additionally, the Baseplate adds ARRI dovetail compatibility while maintaining all quick release functionality of the DSLR cage itself.
Wooden Camera Unified DSLR 15mm Baseplate
Expand the capabilities of your Wooden Camera Unified DSLR Cage with the Unified DSLR 15mm Baseplate. The baseplate itself holds 15mm rods at the correct placement to comply with the lightweight support (LWS) standard. Four height-adjustable posts secure to the base of the small or medium variations of the Unified DSLR Cage to ensure the correct optical axis height (the large variation of the cage has its own built-in rod clamp). The bottom of the baseplate has a dovetail clamp quick release enabling convenient tripod mounting. The dovetail clamp complies with the ARRI dovetail standard and can be easily secured to all dovetail plates of that standard, as well as Wooden Camera's own dovetails and shoulder rigs. Having multiple quick release options in a single system enables you to remove the entire rig from the tripod to go handheld, or just the camera from the rig for a minimalist setup.Wooden Camera 15mm Support Rod (15")
This is a single, 15" long 15mm Support Rod from Wooden Camera for mounting accessories. It is chamfered at each end to ease sliding accessories on and off, and has a hollow interior providing for maximum strength.Wooden Camera Safety Dovetail Plate (12")
The 12" Safety Dovetail Plate from Wooden Camera is an ARRI standard dovetail with a stopper screw on one end and a safety latch on the other to prevent accidental camera detachment. It features threaded 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 holes for accessory mounting and tripod attachment. The dovetail can be attached to a shoulder pad for custom handheld configurations.Wooden Camera A-Box for DSLR Cameras
Designed for DSLRs and any camera with a single 3.5mm audio input, the Wooden Camera A-Box for DSLR Cameras adapts two standard XLR male plugs to one right angle 3.5mm stereo plug. This lets you use professional grade microphones to improve the quality of your in-camera audio recording. The A-Box works best with cameras that allow for auto gain control to be disabled.The A-Box features a single 19mm rod port for clamping onto an industry standard 19mm rod. A 15mm adapter bushing is included for mounting on a 15mm rod. Also included is a bolt-on 19mm rod and for attaching to any 1/4"-20 threaded hole.

This 1/4"-20 to 1/4"-20 Ultra Arm Monitor Mount from Wooden Camera features a 3" extension connecting two double ball-joint clamps.

Both ends feature rubber pads for more secure support.The Ultra Arm system is interchangeable. Wooden Camera offers a variety of optional end-points that install into the ball sockets of the arm. These include NATO clamps, NATO rails, shoe mounts, super clamps, and even a Preston mounting bracket. Additionally, the system is compatible with many 3rd-party 25mm ball mount systems.

Wooden Camera 15mm Rod Clamp
The Wooden Camera 15mm Rod Clamp attaches to 15mm rods to add 1/4"-20 screw-holes to your camera rig. Among the variety of accessories that can be mounted to these screw-holes is Wooden Camera's QB Battery Back Plate. This plate comes in different versions, each designed to have a different type of battery plate and ultimately battery attached to it. With these attached, the QB Battery Back Plate can be mounted right onto the screw-holes of the Rod Clamp. The ability to attach so is especially useful when you have no way of mounting a battery directly onto your camera and as an alternative are looking for a way to get the battery near the camera (so you can connect the two).Wooden Camera Battery Slide
The Battery Slide from Wooden Camera is an adjustable mounting system for V-Mount, Gold Mount, QRC Gold Mount, and RED/BLUESHAPE battery plates. Multiple rows of pass-through holes allow the attachment of rod clamps, cheese plates, and other accessories.In order to adjust the plate's position, the user only needs to apply firm pressure to tilt it into place. Sliding the plate into position is facilitated by an adjustable thumbscrew. Both these movements make the plate ideal for adjusting counterbalance and transitioning from studio to handheld position.
