Full details

FAQs

Is this cage compatible with the DJI Osmo Action 5?

No, this cage (model 5887) is specifically designed for the DJI Osmo Action 6. Ensure you purchase the correct model for your camera.

Can I still use the camera's built-in magnetic mount with this cage?

Yes, the cage features a detachable quick release mount that allows you to retain the full functionality of the camera's original magnetic quick-release system when the mount is detached.

How many accessories can I attach at once?

The cage offers a cold shoe mount, two quick-release mounts, and three 1/4""-20 threaded holes, providing multiple points for attaching various accessories simultaneously.

Does the cage block any buttons or the touchscreen?

No, the cage is precisely engineered to provide full access to all camera buttons, the touchscreen display, and external ports.

What is included in the package?

The package includes the cage, an Allen wrench, a wrist strap, and a silicone lens cover.

Can I charge the camera while it's in the cage?

Yes, the USB-C port and other essential ports remain accessible, allowing you to connect charging cables or other accessories without removing the camera from the cage.

Is the cage waterproof?

The cage itself is designed for protection against impacts and scratches. It does not add waterproofing capabilities to the DJI Osmo Action 6, which retains its original water resistance rating.

Troubleshooting

Cage does not fit the camera properly

Ensure you have the correct camera model (DJI Osmo Action 6). Verify that the camera is fully seated within the cage and all securing mechanisms are engaged.

Accessory mounts feel loose

Tighten the accessory to the mount. Ensure the accessory's thread is compatible. For SmallRig accessories, confirm they are designed for 1/4""-20 threads.

Battery compartment is difficult to open

Ensure the camera is correctly aligned within the cage. Sometimes a slight adjustment of the camera's position can improve access to the battery door.

Quick release mount is not engaging securely

Check for any debris on the magnetic surfaces of both the camera mount and the cage receiver. Ensure you are using a compatible DJI or SmallRig quick-release adapter.
