SmallRig 4976 Black Mamba Cage Kit f. Canon EOS R5 II

I was a bit worried about the weight, but the ergonomic Black Mamba grip really lets you carry the R5 II comfortably all day. The fit is perfect with no wobble, and accessing the battery door is still easy.

The top handle makes such a difference for handheld work — my footage is noticeably steadier walking around with the R5 II. Everything lined up perfectly with the ports and buttons, no fiddling needed.

Shot a full wedding handheld with this rig last weekend and my wrists didn't hate me by hour six. The cage fits the R5 II snugly with zero flex, and the top grip gives me a solid thumb rest when I'm pulling focus. Access to the battery door stays clear, which honestly surprised me.
