IndiSYSTEM has released its new AIR3 cage for HDSLR cameras starting at $99 for the basic version. Adding longer rods, handles and other accessories puts the top end unit at $179.
While it is not as fancy as other HDSLR cages on the market, there appears to be plenty of holes on the top plate for mounting accessories. It also seems to be quite sturdy from the looks of the below video where they set a car on top of four cages.

While it’s not as polished as more expensive stuff, it is capable of getting the job done with a few compromises at a much lower price. If you’re looking for a budget HDSLR cage, this might be one to check out.
