Works for canon 80D?
Asked by: Leo
The SmallRig Handheld Cage Kit for Canon EOS R5/R6/R5 C is designed specifically for the Canon EOS R5 and R6 cameras; it is not compatible with the 80D. With an 80D, you can use a universal DSLR cage, like the FILMCITY Camera Cage for DSLR or Mirrorless Cameras (B&H # FIFCCTH).
