What are the two front facing holes for? Is there

What are the two front facing holes for? Is there a way to attach a 15mm rod support easily?
Asked by: Philipp
The SmallRig HawkLock Half Camera Cage for Nikon ZR (B&H# SM5905) has what appears to many to be two small and forward-facing holes located on the base of the cage, just underneath the lens mount of the camera. These are M4 female screw threads that are used as mounting points for a lens adapter support bracket such as the SmallRig Lens Adapter Support (B&H# SM1764).
