Overview
Overview
The Wooden Camera Director's Monitor Cage v3 is engineered to be universally compatible with any monitor up to 9" (measured diagonally), and attaches via top, bottom, or rear 1/4"-20 mounting locations. At just 1lb (476g), this new design is 33% lighter than its predecessor, and adds unique features like a dual direction swing away bracket, quick release neck strap, dual Teradek mounting points, and carbon fiber rods and handles.
The DMCv3 arrives mostly pre-assembled, with simple, rod-based height adjustment. Carbon fiber handgrips can be quickly positioned via integrated 15mm clamps. The battery mounting plate features V-Mount and Gold Mount attachment points as well as dual direction swing-away functionality for easy access to the rear of the monitor and installed wireless devices. The battery bracket can also be quickly removed when both swing clamps are loosened. The cage includes an integrated baby pin clamp with locking thumbwheel for stand mounting, and holes on the main brackets for direct attachment to the rear of Convergent Design Odyssey and Apollo recorders.
The included sun shade is adaptable to most monitors and snaps directly to the cage frame. The bottom of the shade is made of hook & loop material, which can be adjusted to the proper width of the monitor, and an included loop piece can be used to hook onto the bottom of the cage for more permanent mounting of the shade.
The tool-free design of the handles allow them to be folded inward for easy packing, and the sun shade can be repurposed to act as a protective cover. A padded neck strap with (4) mounting points and quick release clips, Teradek mounting points that allow up to (2) wireless receivers to be mounted side-by-side, and a cable tie for cable management are also included.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Wireless receivers, battery plates, and other accessories sold separately. For powering a monitor and wireless receiver, consider the WC V-Mount (Dual D-Tap) or WC Gold Mount (Dual D-Tap).
