The RØDE PHONECAGE converts a MagSafe® iPhone® or a smartphone in a MagSafe-compatible case into a stable, professional filmmaking rig. Constructed from aluminium with a compact footprint (35.5 mm width, 245 mm depth, 126 mm height) and weighing 0.285 kg, the cage offers multiple threaded mounts, cold shoe slots and integrated cable management to support microphones, lights, tripods and handles for mobile videography.

Advantages

Its aluminium construction is lightweight yet durable, and the ergonomic frame improves handheld stability in both portrait and landscape orientations. Integrated cable guide slots keep cables organized during shoots.

Route any audio or charging cables through the integrated cable guide slots to avoid tangling. Attach microphones, lights, handles or tripods to the appropriate 1/4" or 3/8" threads or cold shoe mounts to build the desired rig configuration. Switch between portrait and landscape orientations as needed; the cage frame supports both formats securely.

Recommendations

For best results, confirm that your phone case is MagSafe-compatible and ensure accessories are tightened to appropriate torque for secure mounting. Use additional support (handles or tripods) for heavy accessories to reduce strain on the magnetic connection.
