I suspect (though am not certain) it may be due to the monitor with cineback is still able to pivot and twist around to different positions, where as the monitor on the pxyis is fixed where it is
Two big problems with the CineBack: - The two cages, you picked, both obstruct the EF filter adapter, so lens and filter adapter have to be removed, if you want to change filters. Had you gone with the Kondor Blue R5 C Cine cage, the filter adapter would have been clear. - You covered over the multifunction hotshoe. This should be opened up, so that either the Tascam XLR adapter can be used or at least the multifunction relocation cable can be installed. The way it is now, it's going to be a no go for me.
yeah - great points. When I get mine, I'm going look into how I can mod the top plate for the XLR adapter, but now seeing the bad comments about that adapter I might switch to the Zoom F3 since it seems more evergreen and that can easily be mounted to the top plate. I just got up the Titla cage for CineBack and I don't mind it, but I also have the Kondor Blue cage mainly to solve for that EF adapter clearance. I'll see if the KB cage fits (I doubt it b/c it is barely taller than the Tilta)
@@backyardwindowI had to stop relying on mine due to same issue. I ended up rigging a chest mount Zoom F8n rig with a Smallrig VM50, case, and wireless radios for more capabilities. And an attached shotgun mic and wireless TX to send to the R5c. And a pair of Tentacle Sync E!
@@backyardwindow once i figured out to never plug in or remove the XLR unit while the camera is on, or incorrectly send phantom power to something like a rode wireless mic, or plug in/unplug a phantom powered shotgun mic from channel 1, I havent had any issues in over a year and a half.
I'm missing a few things in this design. First and foremost, a solid protection for ports like USB-C and Micro HDMI. It would also be great to allocate space for additional accessories that would turn the R5C into a true cinematic beast, such as: -An adapter from Micro HDMI to HDMI + SDI (e.g., the Micro Converter 12G from Blackmagic). -A slot for inserting a Tentacle Sync E for timecode. Currently, unlocking the full potential of the camera creates a huge mess with all the cables and accessories. However, if these elements could be seamlessly integrated, keeping everything organized, it would be amazing. Another great feature would be to have a section of the top plate that can be easily removed with a few screws, providing access to the multifunctional plate. And if it were compatible with Kondor Blue, I’d order the pro version right away!
Legit will be ordering as soon as available!!! Thank you for creating this! We need pictures or video of this thing fully rigged out! Pls fully rig in the future.
This looks great. I just hope to see a cineback for either the Sony ZV-E1, Nikon Z8, or the Fujifilm X-H2. I would love to have all three but any one of them would be great.
Will it be compatible with the new canon R5 mark ii? Since the body size has not changed much from the original R5, I assume it gonna work but will see.
Hi, pretty interesting kit for this camera. The main issue with the R5C (I own one) is the lack of built-in ND filters… If you do not need 8k, I would suggest you to go for the C80 from the same brand.
It reminds me of an article I saw about a rental house who made a similar cine-style box for the Fuji GFX100 II, but I don't believe theirs was for sale. I'd really like to see how you would go about rigging it up with a top handle, a monitor, shotgun mic, maybe a HDMI transmitter, etc and then using it in a shoot. I have a C70, not an R5C or anything, but I still think it looks pretty cool.
Can you make available a different site cheese plate for the canon r5 or r6. Like a shorter cheese plate to close the gap and make the lcd fit better in the side slot?
correct me if i'm wrong: the two compatible cages you'd mentioned only mount to the camera via the threaded holes on the bottom? is there no other point of contact that's secured to the camera directly?
Hi would the Black Mamba” Camera Cage for Canon EOS R5 C fit this rig that cage for the R5C has an extended base plate that i have been running with for a while would love to keep that cage if i can
But after adding that it seems you will now have problems mounting it on a gimbal and using tilta float to smooth out your video. Whereas without it, gimbal use and tilta float can be used. How will you stabilize the video when moving with camera using CineBack??
Interesting design! Just have a couple suggestions after watching your video. Allen or torx fasteners for side pieces vs Philips would be a lot nicer. A cheese plate option for the rear of the unit for those of us that have a v mount or gold mount plate already. A hidden dtap inside the door area. Not on the door, just directly behind the camera so one could choose to plug in there for power from a dummy battery etc and hide the cable. A 3.5mm audio jack to XLR solution would be a nice upsell add on. Think wooden camera A box or similar. A flatter side door with some more 1/4-20’s.
Will This work with the Canon R5II? I am waiting for tilta or smallrig to come out with a cage for my R5markii but would love to rig it up with cineback. I love my cineback for my FX3 but would love to get this one as well!
I'm so glad Caleb designed one of these for the R5C! Does anyone know if CineBack for the R5C will work with SmallRig's Black Mamba cage? The reason I ask is because the Black Mamba cage incorporates the SmallRig micro-HDMI to Full-HDMI adapter better I think than the Tilta cage.
@@BryanWilkatim setting up now and the and you do not need the adapter for the black mambe cage, there is a slight gap but the screws fit perfect and hold tight 👍🏾
Is possible to replace the plastic (3D printed) element? As an environmental documentary film maker, even more plastic in the environment is disappointing. However, great design and idea.
Nice review and product. Some D tap cables will allow you to reverse d tap connector so you can have cable coming in from positive or negative side. I just had to do that with my Alvin's D tap to dummy battery cable. But haveing an option to rotate the at whole plate is awesome.
does it work with the black mamba cage from smallrig ? It looks so amazing. thanks for making it. Could you make a Rig build with a monitor and TX RX system with the cinnebag and R5C , maybe just a monitor..Something Atomos ninja V or something ? That system solve the biggest problem I have with my R5C.. the battery
Wow just saw this 4 hrs after the video, super excited, went to e website to order and it’s out of stock (out of stock 4 hrs after vid drops) Any idea when you may have more available?
its weird how everyone loves a side monitor on the cineback but hate the side monitor on the pyxis

Im not understanding how this would prevent you from using an ef adapter? doesnt look like it wouldnt fit. what am I missing?
I don’t even have a Canon R5C but this is gorgeous
me too
Wow this is really clever. I like the side monitor slot.
Finally a Cineback for a camera that actually needs it. Might have to put in an order.
Could you make a version that lets you use the multi-function hot shoe for use with the Tascam XLR Module?
If this was still compatible with the Tascam xlr module, I would order this instantly.
Facts even better if i could somehow use the xlr module and a top handle but that maybe asking for too much 😭😭😭
Does your XLR module work reliably? I have a few of them and they all cut out sometimes. I stopped counting on mine

One slight missed opportunity was an integrated Timecode BNC port to break out the micro BNC on the camera, that would be an over the top addition.

Is also in Ali express for way cheaper
So are you going to do a V2 of the FX3 one since you came up with all these little improvements?
the rotatable DTAP just small detail but will be so useful for some people
This looks great. I just hope to see a cineback for either the Sony ZV-E1, Nikon Z8, or the Fujifilm X-H2. I would love to have all three but any one of them would be great.
Cineback's are about to be on everyone's camera 🙌🏼
Nice! Do they have one for the c70?
Will it be compatible with the new canon R5 mark ii? Since the body size has not changed much from the original R5, I assume it gonna work but will see.
I get mine on Saturday. Can't wait!
Will the upcoming LUMIX S5IIX cineback have that cool coverup door also?
I was just checking out CineBack for the R5C and was disappointed to not see anything. Really cool that this dropped! Looks amazing.
Hi, pretty interesting kit for this camera. The main issue with the R5C (I own one) is the lack of built-in ND filters… If you do not need 8k, I would suggest you to go for the C80 from the same brand.
you be making this compatible with the kondor blue cage or 8sinn cage?
It would awesome if you made this for the grip camera cages as well for verticle shooters and especially when you guys make it for the r5mkii
There is no additional information on cage and CB compatibility in the description unfortunately.

That USBC cable used, there is no link? Can you provide one.
does this mean we close to getting a cineback for canon c70?
Nice! Thank for your work
Make one for fujifilm XH2s please!!!
Will it work with the canon R6II?
This, like all the other versions, is really well done! Excellent job on these!
Get it, Caleb! Keep 'em comin!
When are tou making the A1 series?
Ordered this instantly. Thanks for making this.
Can you make available a different site cheese plate for the canon r5 or r6. Like a shorter cheese plate to close the gap and make the lcd fit better in the side slot?
Any word on compatibility with the canon r6 mark ii?
Very cool design. I’m interested in buying this. Is the multifunction hot shoe relocation cable compatible with this cage?
does it support half cages
Is it compatible with the Canon R5 Mark II
correct me if i'm wrong: the two compatible cages you'd mentioned only mount to the camera via the threaded holes on the bottom? is there no other point of contact that's secured to the camera directly?
That is badass, I can't wait for it to be back in stock!
I mean this looks like an amazing idea BUT... how are we to use the hotshoe for audio?
look at the rigidpro which has a cutout in the cheeseplate to access the hotshoe. pretty clever actually.
@marcr4349 I just checked it, and it looks amazing! Yes, the option to access the hotshoe is really clever. Thanks so much for letting me know
Should this work with R5 mark II?
Hi would the Black Mamba” Camera Cage for Canon EOS R5 C fit this rig that cage for the R5C has an extended base plate that i have been running with for a while would love to keep that cage if i can
How cumbersome is it to access the menu button? Can your left thumb get to it or do you need to use a finger to push it?
Can this be used with the moffage poco rf to pl adapter?
Do you think it works with a Canon R8 too?
Can someone post a link of the site, camera finder?
Can you remove the top plate over the multi-function hotshoe and use the Tascam Audio module??
the rigidpro version does
Any plans for the R7???
But after adding that it seems you will now have problems mounting it on a gimbal and using tilta float to smooth out your video. Whereas without it, gimbal use and tilta float can be used. How will you stabilize the video when moving with camera using CineBack??
Hi Caleb - I am trying to buy this now BUT I can't find Thailand on the list of available countries - what's going on there? Please help!
is it compatible with the r6 mark ii
I would love to have a slot for Video Transmission like the cvw Crystal Video Pro 200. Maybe in a later version :P
🔥🔥🔥🔥. I love it. But by any chance is there a way to come up with a alternative design that allows the use of the tascam audio module?
Definitely interested. When will it be back in stock on the website?
Hello. I was just wondering if you can do for dslr 600D or 700D
Can't wait for the Lumix version 😉
Will the R8 fit in this?
I have been waiting and waiting and checking and checking, and it is finally here for my beloved camera. Can wait to put my order in.

Pleaseeeee make a fuji xh2s version
Awesome now make one for the gh5s!
