PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Pound for pound, the Panasonic S5II/S5IIX swings way above its weight class. To have such a feature-rich option at its price point is truly remarkable. As such, we wanted to create a cage ecosystem matching the camera’s prowess. The Lumix S5II/S5IIX cage features an evolution of the KONDOR BLUE Mid-Rail introduced on our Panasonic GH6 Cage. This greatly enhances the overall strength and rigidity of the rig. Additionally, the nested strap loop inserts keep this cage mounted rock-solid to the camera body.

The Left Side and Top Plates are securely interlocked with an Arri Rosette. The rosette is perfectly placed to be used with the KONDOR BLUE Wing Side Handle which features run/stop functionality. The combination makes for an amazing run-and-gun setup.

Per usual, the cage comes fully loaded with all the KONDOR BLUE perks–built-in tools, standard mounting holes/patterns, and bubble level. On top of that, the cage is backed by our lifetime warranty which our customers love. Designed to protect, amplify, and inspire, the KONDOR BLUE Panasonic S5II/S5IIX Cage was made for creators who aren’t looking to compromise.

*This Panasonic Lumix S5II/S5IIX cage does not include a body cap.

*Raven Black Cage W/Top Handle comes with Talon XL top handle.

PRO-BLADE SSD Handle for Sandisk USB-C Recording

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

More and more cameras are enabled to record via USB-C to an SSD. We’ve worked closely with SanDisk Professional and Panasonic to ensure an incredible experience when using the SanDisk Professional PRO-BLADE SSD Mag (up to 2TB). These drives can sustain breathtaking read/write speeds and up to 1,000 MB/s when using it with the KONDOR BLUE SSD Top Handle.

Every feature of the Pro-Blade SSD Handle for SanDisk USB-C recording has been meticulously considered and optimized. Not only does the handle perform as an incredible top handle, but it can also be used as a side handle. The NATO rail that runs along the base serves as a great platform for dialing in balance and positioning for either orientation. The NATO features an integrated safety stop giving you confidence that the handle won’t slip free.

The drive slides smoothly into the handle and has a recessed cutout on top for users to be able to grab the pull tab of the drive to remove. The USB-C interface on the front of the grip is nested into a vertical NATO rail which provides great protection without any extra fuss. The vertical NATO also pairs perfectly with our NATO to NATO Swivel Tilt Monitor Mount.

The KONDOR BLUE Pro-Blade SSD Handle also features a cold shoe with a spring-loaded safety stop and 2x ¼ 20 ARRI style mounts. The mounting NATO clamp can also be oriented in parallel or perpendicular modes and is held in place with two captive M4 bolts and anti-twist pins. The NATO clamp stem can also be removed altogether to work with KONDOR BLUE’s NATO Clamp to ARRI Rosette and Quick-Release Rosette Module.

Best of all, the KONDOR BLUE Pro-Blade SSD Recording Handle is also comfortable! The combination of the side cross hatchings, diamond plate style G10, and finger cutouts make this grip an ergonomic dream. This handle is built like a tank but lights like a plane to be a workhorse for years to come.

* Ships with a 12" right-angle KONDOR BLUE USB-C to USB-C cable
