The latest gem to surface via a Google Cached page is the price for the Genus GoPro Cage.The Price is stated at $99.

Oh Google Cached pages you have been good to Cinescopophilia over the years. Pricing for the Genus GoPro Cage was going to be revealed at SMPTE in Sydney 23 July – 26 July, but maybe we spotted the price too early?

Seriously $99 is going to be hard to beat for what the Genus GoPro Cage offers. Plus it’s not like it’s an inferior Kickstarter number priced way too high.

Genus GoPro Cage from Genustech Details:

GoPro Mount adaptor allows 14 different mounting positions.
30 separate mounting positions using ¼”-20 threaded holes.
6 separate 3/8″-16 threaded holes.
