Introducing the Camera Cage for Blackmagic PYXIS 6K Base Kit
This camera cage provides protective armor for the camera body and utilizes modular design choices to greatly improve the functionality of the Pyxis through mounting options like NATO Rail, Arri Rosette, Cold Shoe, 3/8″-16 and 1/4″-20 threads with locating points.
The Side Plate supports quick transitions to Vertical setups as it can be used as the bottom plate when mounted vertically and provides enough space between rods and lens for most accessories. When in this configuration, the plate features specifically positioned threads to align the baseplate with the optical center of the lens.
This Side Plate also supports external recording via the integrated SSD Mount and features multiple 1/4”-20 threads for various accessories. The SSD Mount accommodates hard drives 52mm-60mm wide and less than 12mm thick.
Both the Top and Bottom Plates are designed to avoid the body’s heat dissipation vents, ensuring the camera’s cooling performance remains unaffected. The Top Plate is compatible with the PYXIS native top handle and also features a detachable 3/8 to 1/4 thread adapter, allowing users to choose various top handles to best suit different sized setups.
Included in the Base Kit is the Xeno Top Handle, which connects to the Top Plate via NATO Rail. This improves handling and operating options via an elegant design with increased clearance. This handle features multiple mounting options for additional accessories including 1/4″-20 threads and a Cold Shoe Receiver, perfect for mounting an external monitor.
Also included is the Xeno Side Handle which utilizes a NATO connection to mount to the left or right side of the cage. With an adjustable height of 40mm, users can tailor the handle to their preferred position, ensuring improved comfort when shooting handheld for any amount of time.
The handle features non-slip silicone, which provides a textured grip that improves stability for a confident hold and features mounting points such as a Cold Shoe Receiver and a 1/4″-20 thread with locating points for additional accessories
