NEEWER PA009スマホケージセット

This is a great phone rig for doing planned video work, whether it is a short film for a school project or something professional. I’ve used a few phone rigs before but I never really found one that I liked until I tried this one from Neewer, and when paired with the right supporting equipment, you can can some pretty amazing shots with a modern phone. My iPhone 14 Pro for example can shoot 4k at 60fps or 24fps for more of a film look, especially with a little post processing.Pros:+ Very solid frame with no looseness at all.+ Can attach one or both handles, and the requisite allen keys for really tightening things down store in the handles.+ Tons of mounting options with standard threaded holes everywhere, and multiple cold shoe mounts.+ Can adjust where the phone mounts, moving it left or right.+ Works perfectly with the Neewer phone case with M-mount for 3rd party lenses. For a great cinema look try using an anamorphic lens, see photo.+ The phone clamp is extremely rigid, with no flex at all, securely holding your phone.Cons:- It is a bit bulky and adds a decent amount of weight, especially when you start adding things to the cold shoe mounts like microphones and lighting, but honestly that’s to be expected.This is more a point of consideration than a con, but keep in mind this is a very purpose built rig intended for videography work, of whatever type you have in mind. Can you break this out at your kid’s soccer game? Sure, but it is going to take additional setup, and it will be awkward to use. I’m sure you could do it, but honestly this works best for planned shoots, and in that regard it absolutely excels.Overall, this is fantastic, high quality video rig that is an excellent value. When paired with a bare phone or phone in a standard case you’ll have much more stable shots, and the ability to easily use a microphone and better lighting. Where it really shines is when paired with a phone case that allows the use of third party lenses, something that truly turns your phone into something quite capable of wedding videography, short films, art projects, or even commercials. For the price this is an incredible bargain for the functionality you get, and if you’re looking for a way to do more serious video work with your phone, I highly recommend this rig.
