Hey ns,

I had a mishapp the other day and had my camera hit by a ski (i was shooting fisheye). I have been searching the web for fs700 cages and can not find one that protects the front area of the camera. Do you guys know any that would? It would be nice to have a metal frame around the front of the camera to protect from flying skis when shooting fisheye.

like this?

you might be able to find parts for it cheaper if you don't need a full mattebox (obviously you can't use it for fisheye)

maybe just the second picture on this post?

I doubt there will be much of a solution for under $1k not worth it at all IMO
