The Director’s Monitor Cage v3 from Wooden Camera accepts virtually any LCD on-camera monitor up to 9″, allowing it to be securely held and carried by a director or anyone who needs to have a personal monitor during a shoot. Featuring dual carbon fiber handgrips, aluminum rods, a padded neck strap, and a swing-away design for easy access to the back, this cage makes carrying a small monitor both simple and comfortable.

The cage is based on a universal plate system that mounts your monitor using 1/4″-20 mounting points on the side, top, or bottom of your monitor. In addition to holding your monitor, the cage allows for the mounting of a separately available V-mount or Gold mount plate for battery power, and it also leaves plenty of room for wireless equipment, so you can remain untethered on set.

This is the third version of the Wooden Camera Director’s Monitor Cage, which features mounting capability for the Convergent Design Odyssey or Apollo monitor/recorder and comes with a collapsible sun hood. When mounted in the cage, access to your monitor’s front panel controls remain unimpeded. A built-in Baby pin receiver makes for easy mounting onto a C-stand.
