Compatible Camera Models

This HawkLock cage kit is built exclusively for the Sony Alpha 7C II and 7CR. It locks onto the body with a three-point system using a 1/4"-20 screw and two side locating blocks. Silicone pads prevent scratches while a hinged arm supports the little finger for a steadier hold.

Who Benefits and Who Should Look Elsewhere

Videographers needing quick accessory changes gain the patented HawkLock NATO rail and Arca-Swiss plate for one-click mounting of handles (ID 4483, 4485) and plates (ID 4486). The kit includes a cage, cable clamp and silicone handle. Builders requiring a cage for any other camera model cannot use this kit.

Deciding Specification

Total weight is 6.9 oz (197 g). If that mass fits your handheld or gimbal payload allowance, the cage adds comprehensive protection and mounting threads without exceeding the limit. If your setup demands a lighter rig, this kit will not meet the requirement.
