The base of all of the kits revolves around the camera cage. It is made of aluminum and it weighs 175g / 6.17 oz.

The Top Handle has multiple 1/4-20″ threads, a cold shoe, a 3/8″ thread, and a place for a 15mm rod. It is also reversible, so you can turn it around if you prefer. If you don’t want to use the handle, the cage is compatible with Sony’s Detachable XLR Adapter Handle.
The FX3-04 kit comes with just about everything you need. In addition to the basic camera cage you get a top handle, 15mm baseplate, 15mm rods, a dovetail plate, a follow focus that attaches to 15mm rods, focus gear rings, and a swing-away matte box that accepts 4 x 4 filters.
