8Sinn Cage for RED KOMODO (Black)

Excellent cage for the price. Solid, lightweight and does the job quite well. I kinda wish they had a few more connection points, but at the same time--it is a great value so you can't ask too much more anyway.

The 8Sinn cage is better than the smallrig cage because it is slimmer and allows you to use the cage with Manfrotto fluid heads.

Out of all the cages for the Komodo this one has the best design and protection. I normally use Wooden Camera and BT, yes they are worth the price, but they are lacking in this full body design for the Komodo. This cage really is great. Light, slim, and protects all edges of the camera. You can also buy the support adapter for locking in lens adapters. Three stars only though because the machining, drilling, and overall build isn't even close to Wooden Camera or Bright Tangerine.

After having seen the top rail of the SmallRig Komodo cage consistently fail and snap, design quality, affordability and flexibility were front of mind for me making this purchase. 8sinn hasn't disappointed. It's basically the Timmy ribs side handles but with full body support. A great feature of this cage is the inclusion of a support foot, so that lens mount adapters such as the Kippertie Revolva and Metabones can be attached securely without lens wiggle. An absolute must. The 8Sinn cage (without the top rail) is also compatible with the outrigger handle, which is what decided it for me. The construction quality feels rock solid and frankly more than I was expecting. I've been really impressed. I owned a Tilta cage for a BMPCC6K previously and the construction quality wasn't even close to this cage. Whatever material Tilta cages use seem to have more inherit flexibility, almost like you can squeeze them if you applied enough pressure, where as the 8Sinn straps to the Komodo and doesn't let go. One downside is that my 8Sinn package didn't arrive with a correctly sized hex key for one of the screws, so make sure when assembling you have a set on hand. If I was to wish for anything it would be for more mounting options away from the side of the camera and further towards the rear of the rig, such as where the logo sits. Ultimately you still might find yourself needing to run a cheese plate as you rig out your camera but as a building block this is a great start.
