SmallRig is one of the first third-party camera accessories manufacturers to launch a cage for the Leica SL3. This full cage attaches securely to your camera via three mounting points: multiple 1/4″-20 and 3/8″-16 mounting points, a built-in ARCA Swiss quick-release plate, and a removable cable clamp. So, let’s take a closer look at it! On the heels of the Leica SL3 release last week, SmallRig has already launched their tailor-made cage kit for the impressive mirrorless camera. Indeed, the Leica SL3 seems to be a promising camera for content creators and filmmakers thanks to its new 60MP Full-Frame BSI CMOS image sensor, a tilting touchscreen and OLED EVF, 5-axis IBIS, and the ability to capture 8K footage internally at 30 frames per second, or ProRes 422HQ footage in 1080p60. Also, the SL3 has many user-customizable buttons and dials, which makes it an interesting camera. However, like most modern mirrorless cameras, there is a need for a camera cage to make the SL3 a proper creation tool and to be able to attach a monitor, microphone, and other camera accessories to it.
