Can I switch between handheld and gimbal without tools? Yes. The Arca quick-release system allows toolless conversion between handheld half-cage and gimbal configurations. Is the Sony FX2 supported in addition to the FX3 and FX30? Yes. The cage is designed to fit the Sony FX2, FX3, and FX30 bodies.
