SmallRig HawkLock Sony FX5 Handheld Cage Kit 6778
SmallRig HawkLock Sony FX5 Handheld Cage Kit 6778: The SmallRig HawkLock Sony FX5 Handheld Cage Kit 6778 combines the standard FX5 cage with a NATO top handle, hand strap, and HDMI protection for a balanced handheld starting package.
Choose it when you want a conventional top-handle Sony FX5 rig for carrying, low-angle framing, tripod work, and accessory mounting without adding a battery plate.
Product Details
Product Overview
This SmallRig FX5 cage kit pairs the standard padded cage with a detachable NATO top handle and hand strap. It preserves control and port access while adding 1/4-20 threads, ARRI 3/8-16 locating holes, NATO mounting, cold shoes, a QD socket, and a dedicated HDMI cable clamp.
The integrated Arca base supports the listed DJI RS-series gimbals, making this HawkLock cage easier to move between handheld and stabilized work. Remove the modular top plate if a Sony XLR-H2-series handle or DVF-EL1 viewfinder needs the camera’s top interface.
Key Features
- Complete Sony FX5 handheld cage kit
- NATO top handle supports low angles
- Hand strap improves carrying security
- Integrated Arca base supports DJI RS
- NATO and ARRI accessory mounting
- Dedicated HDMI cable clamp included
How It Compares
Choose 6778 for a conventional top-handle kit without battery hardware. Choose 6777 when a separately owned Sony XLR handle defines the rig, or 6779 when an included folding V-Mount battery plate is worth the extra weight and cost.
Compatible Accessories and Related Gear
The cage and top handle provide NATO mounting for the SmallRig NATO monitor mount, giving the included handheld package a compact way to add an on-camera monitor.

FAQ
What is included in the SmallRig 6778 handheld kit?
It includes the Sony FX5 cage, modular top plate, HDMI cable clamp, hand strap, NATO top handle, NATO rail, Allen wrench, and manual. Camera and monitor are not included.
Does the 6778 kit work with a Sony XLR handle?
The cage can adapt to a Sony XLR-H2-series handle after its top plate is removed, but the 6778 is built around the included conventional NATO top handle rather than an XLR extension.
Can the SmallRig 6778 mount on DJI RS-series gimbals?
Yes. The integrated Arca base is listed for DJI RS 2, RSC 2, RS 3, RS 3 Pro, RS 4, RS 4 Pro, and RS 5, subject to the gimbal’s payload and balance limits.
What mounting points are available for accessories?
The cage and handle provide 1/4-20 threads, ARRI 3/8-16 locating holes, NATO mounting, cold shoes, and a QD socket for common Sony FX5 rig accessories.
How does SmallRig 6778 differ from 6777?
The 6778 includes a standard NATO top handle for general handheld work. The 6777 instead includes an extension built around a separately owned Sony XLR handle.
How does SmallRig 6778 differ from 6779?
Both include the cage, top handle, hand strap, and HDMI protection. The 6779 adds a folding V-Mount battery plate and Arca-Swiss plate for longer-running power builds.
