Tailored Cage for Canon EOS R6 Mark II

The SmallRig HawkLock Quick Release Cage 4159B is precision-engineered for the Canon EOS R6 Mark II, locking the body with a bottom 1/4"-20 screw and dual side-lock adapters lined with rubber pads to prevent scratches. It preserves full access to buttons, card slot, flip screen and battery door, making it a direct fit for solo shooters and small crews who need rigid protection without losing camera operability.

Aluminium Frame Runs Cool and Silent

Machined from aluminium alloy, the cage adds negligible thermal mass and no moving parts, so it neither traps heat nor generates noise during extended recording sessions. The open design leaves the camera's own ventilation paths clear, while the lightweight alloy keeps the overall rig balanced on gimbals or shoulder rigs without drawing extra power.

Modular Mounting Ecosystem

Top-mounted HawkLock H18 cold shoe and H21 NATO rails on the top and left side accept compatible handles, monitor mounts and rotating side handles, while dual 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads plus ARRI locating holes support side handles, rod clamps and magic arms. A QD socket and strap holes allow hand or shoulder straps, and the vertical 1/4"-20 holes on the right side stabilise portrait orientation. Builders needing integrated wireless transmitter slots or internal battery pass-through will need a different cage.

Questions about this item

How do I install the cage on the Canon EOS R6 Mark II, and which step do people often miss?

Fasten the 1/4"-20 screw at the bottom, then engage the side lock adapters on both sides; the step people miss is tightening both side locks evenly so the rubber pads grip without shifting.

What maintenance or replacement will the cage need later?

The rubber pads on the bottom screw and side lock adapters can wear or tear over time; check them periodically and replace if they no longer prevent scratches.

What limit shows up first under sustained use with accessories mounted?

The 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads on the cage body can loosen before the aluminum alloy frame shows any fatigue, especially when heavy rigs hang from the NATO rails.
