To better handle more demanding recording situations with the iPhone 17 Pro/Pro Max, it is recommended to "rig up" the smartphone somewhat – if only for ergonomics. Various products already exist for this purpose, including some from SmallRig – now a new, Transformers-inspired cage solution is available (Megatron Edition). It was shown as a sneak peek at the IBC and can be modularly adapted to different shooting conditions.

The cage consists of four small individual parts that are quickly assembled via 3 stable pin connections and a twist lock. Two handles can be attached laterally via the HawkLock H11 quick-release fastener and are continuously rotatable; alternatively, just one can be used as a top handle. Wireless control is integrated into one of the two included handles, enabling remote shooting with a single button press.
Thanks to numerous connection options, optional accessories such as a light, microphone, another screen, or similar can be attached. There are 12 1/4"-20 threaded holes and 3 cold shoe mounts available. The use of clip-on lenses or filters is also provided for – the basic package includes two lens adapter plates with T-Mount or 17mm thread compatibility.

Scope of Delivery
The SmallRig Transformers Dual Handheld Video Kit for 17 Pro/Pro Max costs 167.90 Euros and is expected to be available soon.
