BIRTV 2014 video: Movcam give more details about their Sony a7S cage and show new C300 top handle and cage

By site editor Dan Chung:

Movcam were at BIRTV showing a updated version of their top handle and cage for the Canon C300. The new version is much lighter than the previous one and features a detachable top handle as well as 15mm rod mounting on top.

I also asked them about their new cage for the Sony a7S which I reviewed earlier this week. It will be shipping to dealers in about a week and will available in black as well as the gun-metal finish.

Movcam didn’t give pricing for the cage but it is already available to pre-order on the CVP website in the UK for £123.35 + tax for the basic cage. You can also order a version of the cage including a riser and baseplate for 15mm rods at £206.04 plus VAT.
