Custom-designed, this complete cage integrates perfectly with the camera body to ensure stability, security, and ergonomics during photo and video shoots.

General and essential features

The Tilta Camera Cage for Nikon ZR features a modular design , allowing it to be used as a full cage or half cage depending on shooting requirements. This flexibility is ideal for operators seeking a balance between robustness and reduced weight, especially when using a gimbal.

The cage features numerous professional mounting points, including 1/4-20 threaded holes with locating points, a 3/8-16 threaded hole, M3 threads , and a cold shoe receiver. These interfaces allow for the secure mounting of monitors, microphones, handles, boom arms, or transmission systems.

To improve the stability of the housing in the cage, Tilta has integrated two additional contact points. A top security point attaches to the camera strap attachment, while a lower locating pin located near the mounting screw limits any unwanted rotation.

The ARCA bottom plate ensures direct compatibility with ARCA receivers and DJI gimbals, facilitating quick transitions between tripod, stabilizer, and shoulder setup.

A cable clamp is included to secure the USB-C and Micro HDMI. This system uses thumb screws for quick and efficient adjustment in the field, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection.
