Will this cage work with speed booster?

Hey guys

http://www.viewfactor.net/products/blac ... -cage.html

I want to get this cage to protect my BMPCC from further scratches. My only concern is being able to attach the speed booster to it with the tripod mount.

My main lens is the Sigma 18-35, and the lens is quite heavy so I would love to be able to use the cage and keep the weight of the lens off the camera frame.

Thanks!

Yeah, the speed booster fits with that cage. I use a rod system below the cage to hold a lens support, follow focus and external battery.

Here's a pic of my rig using the Viewfactor cage: http://instagram.com/p/l6QAn4Qsmn/
