Amazing cage for Nikon Z8. In my opinion this is a best option because it has more ways of connecting various things on it. SmallRig and Tilta cage options offers less possibilites.This Nitze cage feels very sturdy, there no "free play", feeling very happy.

EPIC RIG DESIGN, CNC MANUFACTURING, AND METICULOUS ATTENTION TO DETAIL FOR THE NIKON SHOOTERThis company makes various camera rigs and accessories for all the top brands.It is considered one of the higher-end brands in the secondary market of cameras, cages, rigs, and all types of accessories for the industry.For the last three years, Canon and Nikon have been going head TO HEAD, and with Nikon coming out with their Z8 and Z9, it is becoming one of the most popular cameras on the Nikon line.When you get this camera grip in your hand, you have to take a moment and appreciate the engineering design quality and the sheer size of a giant camera.You look at it from the front; they took time and designed a camera with an endless amount of screws, everything from 1/4 to 3/8, two cold shoes mounted for a camera strap, And an attachable grip.They even included an Allen wrench key on the bottom and the new style magnetic keys for the Arca Swiss plate 1/4 screw.It's just a beautiful design—the time to put an extra piece of rubber where the base of a camera goes.This is important because you get a vibration when you're shooting and running.This type of camera rig is designed for high-end shooting. It has several accessories you can put on here, including two external grips, a tripod/wireless microphone, a shotgun, external battery packs, and the famous hand grip.They did a fantastic job designing this camera with the idea that it would create an extra layer of protection.This is because the type of camera will be going through the motions and taking a beating when it comes to video production is isThey took time to design us correctly with a vast array of buttons that Nikon is known for, along with not blocking the battery and Nikon's new release of their flippy screen.Nikon took a page out of Canon's playbook and introduced a flippy screen as a game-changerWhen it comes to Nikon's high-end, professional, commercial-grade cameras, this is a great rig.I also want to take a minute to comment on the sheer amount of screws they introduced with this grip because not many companies take the time when it comes to design and manufacturing to focus on the small nuances of such a high-end camera.With the many accessories that can be added to this camera, one of my favorite aspects is a rotatable side handle called a NATO rail. They also have another grip for stabilizing shooting.If you look at their page, they have various accessories for this camera. They can put this cage into the three or $400 range.This cage is a game changer for people on a budget compared to the competition, where a cage like this would typically run between $200 and $300, and that does not include any accessories.I give them a ten on design, CNC manufacturing creativity, and creating an excellent camera cage for the price point.A Nikon shooter who has invested time and money into a Z8 would be ecstatic about using this on any commercial video or photo shoot.I'll post a 30-day follow-up of the script as I give it to a friend who exclusively shoots Nikon, and I shoot Canon.If you have any questions, let me know, and have a great night.

Very good product!

There are not many cage manufacturers that I trust, as i have used some that just weren’t built for ergonomics or for functionality. Nitze took all that into consideration when they designed this cage. It will house your Z8 securely with a multi point locking system, to ensure that your camera does not shake or shift within the cage. The cage is built well and is very rigid. It will not flex under the weight of a full rig load out like some of the cheaper brands i have tried. There are a lot of mounting locations, making it possible to load up your rig exactly the way you want it without compromise.The Z8 is an amazing Hybrid camera, so having a cage that will not restrict its capabilities is a must. This cage does not awkwardly block the hot shoe, which is very important because I use triggers for off camera flash and some on camera flash for photography. It’s great that I do not have to remove the cage in order for me to go back and forth between video and photography.This cage is perfect for the hybrid shooter and does not add unwanted bulk or excessive weight so that you can move freely.
