1-Save and protection

The benefit of a cage is the added protection for your camera a metal shell will provide. Super useful if you have a reputation a dropper of things. ... They are a great starting point to any camera rig, and provide a modular framework around your camera to great really great looking footage

2- Anti-shaking

Can also works as a camera stabilizer, or camera–stabilizing mount, the rig cage is a device designed to hold a camera in a manner that prevents or compensates for unwanted camera movement, such as "camera shake". For small hand-held cameras, a harness or contoured frame steadies the camera against the photographer's body.

3- About the Matte boxes and filters

On your rig are simply used to prevent or compensate for problems such as lens flare, which can cause haziness or other visual artifacts to appear across the image. ... Lightweight matte boxes are recommended for handheld shooting, while heavier rod-mounted units should be used with a tripod.

4- Add more accessories.

Very easy to fix various accessories to your camera body such as monitors, lights, and microphones. Using the hotshoe for a shotgun mic may be sufficient, but there will be imbalance issues if you try to mount a monitor or a light on there.

5- Improved Handling

Attaching handles above or on either side of your camera body provides smooth camera operation. A cage gives you all the necessary connection points for these accessories, and you can select which ones are going to be most useful depending on your shoot. If you will be shooting mostly from a hip height, then an underarm grip will be the one to go for, whereas side on grips will be better for shooting from the eyeline.
