The Cage Director Monitor v3 is designed to be universally compatible with all monitors up to 9", and attaches via 1/4-20 top, bottom or rear mounting screws. The new lightweight design provides a 33% weight reduction over the previous model, and adds unique new features such as a two-way swivel mount, quick-release strap, dual Teradek mounting areas, and carbon fiber stems and handles.
The DMCv3 arrives mostly pre-assembled, with simple rod-based height adjustment. The carbon fiber handles can be quickly positioned via the integrated 15 mm clamps. The battery mounting plate features V-Mount and Gold Mount attachment points, as well as bi-directional tilt functionality for easy access to the rear of the monitor and installed wireless peripherals. The battery holder can also be quickly removed when the two swivel clamps are loosened. The cage includes an integrated baby clamp with a locking knob for mounting the bracket, and holes on the main brackets for direct attachment to the rear of Convergent Design Odyssey and Apollo.
The included shade fits most monitors and attaches directly to the cage frame. The bottom of the shade is made of Velcro, which can be adjusted to the appropriate monitor width, and an included loop can be used to hook onto the bottom of the cage for permanent shade mounting.
The tool-free design of the handles allows them to be folded for easy packing, and the sunshield can be reused as a protective cover. A padded neck strap with 4 attachment points and quick-clips, Teradek mounting zones for up to two wireless receivers and a cable clamp for cable management are also included.
Side-by-side mounting of two monitors is also possible with the Dual Director Monitor Cage v3!
