Tilta Camera Cage for Blackmagic PYXIS 6K Base Kit
The side plate enables quick transitions to vertical setups, as it can be used as a base plate when the camera is mounted vertically, providing sufficient clearance between the rods and the lens for most accessories. In this configuration, the plate features specially positioned threads to align the base plate with the optical centre of the lens.
This side plate also supports external recording via the integrated SSD holder and features multiple 1/4"-20 threaded connections for various accessories. The SSD holder accommodates hard drives with a width of 52 mm to 60 mm and a thickness of less than 12 mm.
Both the top and bottom plates are designed to avoid contact with the camera body's ventilation openings, ensuring the camera's cooling performance is not affected. The top plate is compatible with the original PYXIS handle and features a removable 3/8" to 1/4" thread adapter, allowing users to choose from a variety of handles best suited to different configurations.
The base kit includes the Xeno handle, which attaches to the top plate via a NATO rail. This enhances handling and usability thanks to a sleek design with increased clearance. The handle offers multiple mounting points for additional accessories, including 1/4"-20 threads and a cold shoe receiver, perfect for attaching an external monitor.
Also included is the Xeno side handle, which can be mounted on either the left or right side of the cage via a NATO connection. With an adjustable height of 40 mm, users can position the handle to their preferred setting, providing greater comfort during handheld shooting regardless of duration.
The handle features anti-slip silicone for a textured grip and added stability, ensuring a secure hold. It includes mounting points such as a cold shoe receiver and a 1/4"-20 thread with positioning points for additional accessories.
