Thanks for watching 👍🏻

Thanks for the info…I purchased the Neewer cage, 2 grips, and Magnetic tripod through your portal using the link you provided.. I also subscribed to your channel and I’m looking forward to see the rest of your content. I use my phone and my GoPro for all my KZread videos I like to pack light..and I also use Artlist.. I’m sure I’ll be learning more through your videos. Thank you.

i tested both too and have to say overall the new NEEWER cage is the best one

Great comparison review, Benett! Have you tried connecting a usb-c cable (to connect an ssd for attached recording) to the phone through the Neewer cage? I saw a previous review of the older Neewer cage and you needed an adapter with a longer connection end because a typical usb-c cable end could not be securely connected into the phone.

Hi Benett! Will you do any video about illumination incorporated to the cage or another accesory?

Super Review, Im waiting on my NEWER v2 cant wait to do some shoots

Right on!

Nice info! How about mounting for quick release DJI Ronin SC2 gimbal? is it can attached direct without any holder phone?

Thank you for a very interesting review. For me, it's the filter adapter and rotating handles which sets the Neewer apart. I also wonder if the new handles are compatible with NATO rails. If they are it might be possible to use old Smallrig NATO rail handles with the Neewer cage which could be a money saver.

Thanks for sharing

Does the Neewer Rig fits with SHIFTCAM lenses?

Do you suggest getting one of these cages over the "MC4 Smallrig cage" that you recommended a few months ago in the "Turn your iPhone 15 Pro Max into a Pro Camera" video that you made?

After comparing several options, I was about to buy the Neewer G1, but it didn’t fully convince me. Just in time, the new generation of Neewer cages (G2) was released, which surpasses the SmallRig in many aspects. I’ve already ordered it and also recommend considering the Hagibis memory (compatible with M.2 memory), which is also MagSafe compatible. Now, I just need the ND filter and the DJI stabilizer handle.

The double grip system of the Neewer, let's put it that way, is an additional safety measure. It is well known that the grip system of SmallRig is unsafe. Let's check the comparison of neewer.

Hey man do you just use your iPhone 15 pro max and a iPad to do all your videos like you have no camera or computer because if you only use those 2 I’m digging it

Can those Smallrig handles work on the Neweer ?!? I saw at NAB 2024 some new handles that have 2 fast grip points and a 2280 nvme ssd inside the handle for extra memory.

Well done Benett - just one question… would a 67mm VND on the Neewer cage cause vignetting on the wide angle iPhone lens? Thanks again for the honest and complete review 👍🏻

@BenettGraezer

Thanks! No I had no vignetting at all 👍🏻

I have both of them for s24ultra I like Neweer, because of accessoires. On Neweer you can attach threaded one and magnetic filter Neweer filter set com with magnetic ring that attached to the plate and use the magnetic filters. Neweer lighter than smallrig . Smallrig handle has remote, but i have remote with zooming capacity from ulanzi and Huawei handheld tripods.

I have both and the Neewer feels better in my hand because of the curved edges. Smallrig's edges feel sharper and rougher. I hate having to change the backplates for the Smallrig but I also hate the rotating handles of Neewer. If only Smallrig has curved edges and had a quick release backplate like the Neewer, it would be perfect. Smallrig has a new universal cage coming out in July that has a SSD in the handle grip and I believe focus/zoom wheels too. Pre-order starts in July I believe.

Where can I find details about the new small rig universal cage that's coming out? Didnt see anything about it

Hi hope you are well, was wondering if you would consider doing a video of the below - now that online media is moving towards a 50/50 of vertical and portrait is their a camera/or video device that can record both styles at the same time, without the 9:16 looking like it’s been zoomed in ? Thanks for any advice /tips

@@BenettGraezer no problem man, I’m always on the lookout, I just wish there was a magnetic to threaded filter adapter for when we don’t have any magnetic filters and only threaded filter for small rig

@Benett Since you have both the Neewer and Smallrig cages can you check if the handles from the Smallrig can fit into the Neewer phone cage and vice versa? I was thinking I like the Neewer phone cage itself but the handles of the small rig seem better and wanted to know if I can mix and match between the two companies like this? Or if I got one grip thats from Neewer and one grip thats from Smallrig. Any idea about the ability to interchange between these two quick release grips?

@ne0nlightz

Since you own both Smallrig and Newer cages, can you just see if the Smallrig handles can attach to the Neewer? If so that would be the best of both worlds! Really interested to see if it would work

Honestly I don’t like using the 1.55x anamorphic lenses because I don’t need too much widescreen, I like using the 1.33x anamorphic lens that’s a perfect aspect ratio for me, I have moment’s 1.33x anamorphic T series lenses Gold and Blue flare, plus their filter adapter too add filters to the lenses

By the looks of this the Neewer cage seems more worth it that the Smallrig cage

I just got the Brandon Li Smallrig cage and can't get my phone to fit into it - am I being an idiot?! It goes most of the way but the last 1-2cms it's stuck fast and won't go any further.

dose small rig lens adapter work with neewer cage and please tell me if Sandmarc or shift cam lense and filter works or not please

@BenettGraezer

Ай бұрын

No, SmallRig's lens backplates are not compatible with NEEWER cage. If you get the 17mm backplate, you can use SANDMARC lenses. Shiftcam lenses have a 12mm thread, and I don't think they have backplates for that size.

I chosen Neewer cage after this review and first of all... doesn't fit to Freewell lenses... T-mount is different between suppliers, additionally is very delicated and is easy to scrach this cage... Additionally quality is not top, one of the gip has black another silver switch and is not possible to lock properly... what a crap... I am disappointed, I'll return to supplier this cage.
