I don't really need the full cage for my R7 - looking around Smallrig make a half cage for the Sony A7 and it looks ideal for my purpose - it gave full screen clearance on the YouTube review for the Sony photographer

A bit of a long shot but does anyone know if the Sony half cage would fit OK on an R7 - the cameras seem broadly the same size or even has a local retailer where they could try

Any input welcomed as my issue is getting full screen movement with an L bracket

I looked the SmallRig cages for the R7 and decided on the Camvate half cage for about 1/3 of the price. It's sturdy, and allows full movement of the screen, so I'm happy with it. One minor quibble is that, when mounted, the top rail of the cage is not 100% parallel with the top of the camera. It's a small but noticeable problem that wouldn't prevent me from buying it again. Amazon currently has it for 25% off what I paid for it last year.

Thanks for that - looks like it might be what I need at a reasonable price
