Basecage with Grips

Moment Basecage with Grips — The Portable Film Rig for Travel Creators

The gist: A modular cast-aluminum phone cage that turns your iPhone into a legitimate handheld cinema rig — without checking a bag.

• Open ecosystem rigging: Cast aluminum rail profile with NATO and Arca-Swiss compatibility, plus (4) 3/8″-16 mounts and 39 1/4″-20 thread points — attach any standard mic, light, or monitor, not just Moment accessories.
• All-day grip comfort: Bundle includes both grips, a wireless shutter mount, and a standard mount, giving you a two-handed cinema hold for extended shooting sessions on location.
• Wide phone fit: Industrial clamp with rubber-padded pads fits phones up to 90mm wide — covers iPhone 16 Pro Max, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and most Android flagships.
• Arca-Swiss base: Drops onto any Arca-compatible tripod head instantly, so your existing travel tripod works without an adapter.

The Noisecast highlighted the BaseCage as part of Moment’s modular rigging ecosystem, noting it’s designed for creators who need pro-level mounting without the bulk of a traditional cinema rig.

Best for: Travel content creators and mobile videographers who shoot b-roll, vlogs, or short films on location. Skip it if: You’re a casual shooter — the cage adds real bulk and is overkill for everyday phone photography. Runs around $178 — check the current price before buying.
