Because of this very video, I purchased the cage you've designed here and then went and purchased a BMPCC OG from B&H lol! Building a budget, mini cinema rig. I'm excited about it and my kid is excited and wants to start making short films with it. Thanks for reigniting the passion! 🤘📽
i got my cage with the added handle and HDMI cable lock last month and it's just a brilliant system. My OG is always the camera that gets tossed into my bag for out and about shooting and having this cage just gives me a whole bunch of confidence that everything is secure and not going to get damaged. Just so much care went into designing this cage! Excellent job! Alpha-plus!
Received mine last week! Great work done Will. Everything about the design and build is top shelf! Bravo. This is giving my BMPCC OG new life. If you are considering buying this for your unit, do so immediately without reservation. This is a great quality cage and accessories- built by a filmmaker for filmmakers.
I’m ordering the whole kit tonight after work. Thanks Will. PS: I watched Heritage the other night and my wife and I enjoyed it. It looked really good too and I liked the colour grade.
Ordered it!!! Complete rig on its way. So now I have a used Panasonic 14-42 gx vario pz on its way and a metabones speedbooster for my geared canon fd lenses (24/50/70-210). Go a bunch of internal batteries and a charger now i need to order a NP-F plate and some Sony batteries and charger. Next on the list is irND filters. Not sure if I’ll go variable or not. Thoughts? Maybe a pro mist or glimmer glass, who knows. Then finally a follow focus and cine lens set down the road. Oh man then I still got to buy lights. This is going to be an expensive hobby lol.
This is an excellent job, congratulations! It's amazing to see how this magical little 2013 camera made you design this beautiful system in 2023, I feel like time traveling to a nostalgia that becomes tangible. Thank you and BMPCCOG ftw
Follow focus has less to do with the camera and more to do with lenses. Personally I like (and used for Heritage) the Tilta TT-03-GJ2. Great unit with very little backlash.
I just bought my first BPMCC OG on eBay and as soon as the auction ended I got immediately paranoid about the HDMI port as I plan to use my FeelWorld monitor almost exclusively. I bought the cage, HDMI clamp, power adapter clamp, and clear screen protector. Hopefully it all works together with my Neewer cage/rail system that I currently use with my DSLR.
There aren’t as many components, mostly because the Micro is so stripped down to begin with. But the cage itself has been retry meticulously designed. Built to be used in any possible setup.
This is very exciting! I have a micro cinema camera and a smallrig cage my self, and several of these components look like they will work well for my camera as well. I will say that at first I was a little sad the Metabones/Viltrox adapter wasn't Smallrig 1864 compatible, but then you showed off the rails adapter, and that actually looks a lot more appealing to me, because I have a combination of lens adapters, and the only time I'm really concerned about any of the adapters being locked down is if they are on rails, and as it seems like the rail block would likely be compatible with the Smallrig Micro cage, the combination of those two have major appeal to me.
My advise would be to sell the smallrig cage now while you can get a good price and then buy my upcoming cage for the Micro. You won’t be disappointed ;) Thanks for watching!
Nice cage/accessories for the good ole OG! Does anyone here use the rawlite filter on this cam? That's my only main issue with this camera. The moire is less than satisfactory. Curious to know 🎥
Hate to hijack but are you planning on releasing a sigma fp cage? There are none on the market with cable locks. All the small rig cages have been discontinued.
I am! It may be a few months still.. with the re-release of the BM Micro camera I’ve thrown a lot of resources in getting that to market. But sigma FP is in the works and coming next 👍🏻
Unfortunately not :-/ I sent you a response on Instagram-basically because of the process these are made they must be done in bulk, so it isn’t possible to efficiently do one-offs in other colors. Sorry :-(
@@WillvonTagen Thank you for the answer, I understand that :) Do you have qny suggestions for some diy coloring? Spray painting or something similar could work, couldn't it?
@@Nagadosch There are some automotive interior dyes out there that could possibly work--specifically made to dye plastics. I have used these before for car restoration work and they do pretty well. You would probably want to rough up the surface a bit first, though. Take some light sand paper and then wipe it clean--this helps the dye/paint cling to the surface better.
Hi Will, do you know if I can power the Bmpcc OG from the 7,4 V out of the NP-F adapter plate without damaging the camera? I realized it turns on when I use the 7,4 V out but not sure if its good for the camera
So i have a tripod screw broken off and stuck into the bottom of the camera, tried everything to take it out but no luck. Will this cage be a good idea to buy given that it already has mounting holes?
Yes, you can still lock it securely into the cage with just the top mount and then you’ll have plenty of threaded points on the bottom for tripod use etc. 👍🏻

I am SO happy with this cage!! This is the most genius cage solution for this BM legacy camera. 👏👏👏👏✌️
Thanks so much for the support and I’m very happy you are pleased with the cage :)
This is absolutely GENIUS engineering!
I'm so happy with mine! :) It feels like a real passion project and I love being able to support that. Thank you for making it!
Thank you! I appreciate the support :)
@@WillvonTagen I ordered mines its on its way
Super exciting! It's been fun to watch this go from design to prototype to production.
Thanks for following along! Stay dangerous ;)
received by CAGE BASIC yesterday, absolutely beautiful, Will you did a great job with this design.
So glad you like it! Thanks for the kind words :)
I love this cage and accessories 😊
Thank you! :) :)
Incredible 🔥🔥🔥

@@WillvonTagenit came today and everything about it absolutely perfect.
Excellent craftsmanship and great value in my opinion. Thanks.
Just ordered mine a few days ago. You sir are the real mvp as no one else makes cages for the BMPCC og anymore
crazy! I want one!
They’re up for grabs ;)
This is an excellent job, congratulations! It's amazing to see how this magical little 2013 camera made you design this beautiful system in 2023, I feel like time traveling to a nostalgia that becomes tangible. Thank you and BMPCCOG ftw
Thank you very much!
God everything is so well thought out and designed! You’ve done amazing work, thank you for your contribution to the indie filmmaker community!
Thank you very much for the kind words! :)
This is so cool. I love seeing all these well-crafted and well thought out accessories for the BMPCC OG. Great job
Thank you so much!
This cage is top tier, thank you for providing this.
What are the good follow focus systems that work with the pocket og?
Exactly what I want to know too. I would love to know exactly how he rigged it out for his feature length movies as well.
Follow focus has less to do with the camera and more to do with lenses. Personally I like (and used for Heritage) the Tilta TT-03-GJ2. Great unit with very little backlash.
Thank you 🙏 @@WillvonTagen
I'll def be picking one up, getting that extra weight and protection plus the extra mount points seems like the total package.
You won’t regret it ;)
I would hold my horses and wait for a used Tilta cage to surface. Got one and short story = it is good, looking at it right now.

this is awesome! happy to see someone making a cage for this camera. seems very well designed
This cage is next level.
Thank you!
@@WillvonTagen are you going to have the same level of customization for your Micro cage?
There aren’t as many components, mostly because the Micro is so stripped down to begin with. But the cage itself has been retry meticulously designed. Built to be used in any possible setup.
what do you think about today's developments?@@WillvonTagen
You did really great. Love the design and the thought that you put into it. It is a bit heavy, but I love it!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you like it :)
thanks Will, great job! The product is amazing
Thanks so much!
Thanks Will, brilliant work! 🙏🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you very much!
@@WillvonTagen 👍🏾Very Welcome, my Good Bro. You're Awesome. Best Wishes

just ordered mines its on its way I got the full rig
Looks awesome! I think I will take one 🙌🔥
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Thank you!
Wow. Looks really great.
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Would love to see a “the creator Rig” with the og BMPCC at the heart vs the fx3! 🎉
Loving the look of this cage. If I would order from Belgium, would I be looking at any extra costs? (customs, shipping, ect)
Belgium is not a problem and right now I am doing a sale with free shipping. So far all European orders have not had large customs fees either.
This looks amazing. Do you ship to India?
I do 👍🏻
thanks a lot for quick confirmation.
Nice cage/accessories for the good ole OG! Does anyone here use the rawlite filter on this cam? That's my only main issue with this camera. The moire is less than satisfactory. Curious to know 🎥
Hi Will, Thanks for sharing all the information. Quick question. How do I check the version on my OG and how to update. Your help is appreciated.
Hate to hijack but are you planning on releasing a sigma fp cage? There are none on the market with cable locks. All the small rig cages have been discontinued.
I am! It may be a few months still.. with the re-release of the BM Micro camera I’ve thrown a lot of resources in getting that to market. But sigma FP is in the works and coming next 👍🏻
Hi Will, can you tell me how long the 12V cable is that comes with the cable lock? ✌
It is about 21cm not including the connection ends (the cable alone is 21cm) 👍🏻
Do you ship to Bogotá, Colombia ? it.s not listed in your web page. Thanks !!!
Hi! Yes, sorry I just added Columbia to the shipping zone option. You should be able to order now 👍🏻
Hi, would it be possible to get the sun hood in a custom color (for an additional charge of course)?
Unfortunately not :-/ I sent you a response on Instagram-basically because of the process these are made they must be done in bulk, so it isn’t possible to efficiently do one-offs in other colors. Sorry :-(

@@WillvonTagen Thank you very much for the fast feedback and these tips! I will soon place my order and try it this way :)
@@WillvonTagenI btw have the viewfactor contineo cage so the sun hood will work on this right?
Hi Will, do you know if I can power the Bmpcc OG from the 7,4 V out of the NP-F adapter plate without damaging the camera? I realized it turns on when I use the 7,4 V out but not sure if its good for the camera
You’re totally fine to do that. In fact the internal battery of the OG only puts out 7.4v and that’s all the camera needs to operate.
@@WillvonTagen Great, thank you very much!
You ship to Australia?
Yes sir! Already had a few orders go over there :)
sigma fp will never get this kind of love...
You never know…
So i have a tripod screw broken off and stuck into the bottom of the camera, tried everything to take it out but no luck. Will this cage be a good idea to buy given that it already has mounting holes?
Yes, you can still lock it securely into the cage with just the top mount and then you’ll have plenty of threaded points on the bottom for tripod use etc. 👍🏻
Been trying to purchase via paypal, i cant go pass the loading screen after clicking pay.
That’s strange.. what browser are you using?
Safari, will try chrome later
@@WillvonTagen
order from Chrome went through, looking forward for this thanks @@WillvonTagen
Do you deliver to eu?
Hi! Yes, I ship worldwide 👍🏻
u ship to germany too?
Aber Natürlich!
