Sony A7iii and SmallRig cage, Caution!

Bought a SmallRig cage for my A7iii having used them on both of my A6000 and liked the quality and value. Never had an issue using my Sony lens adapters on the A6000 in the cage, both the LA-EA1 and LA-EA2 worked perfectly. Use the LA-EA1 with my Tokina 11-16 on the A7iii but take off the 1/20 mount on it. After a almost a two month wait for my LA-EA3 to use with my Sigma 70-200 it came in today. You can't use it with the SmallRig cage. The mount is built into the adapter like the LA-EA2 & 4 . Never tried to use the LA-EA2 on the cage and just assumed the LA-EA3 would work. NOT.
So stay away from the SmallRig cage if you are going the same route as me. I will send the customary ***** email but don't expect them to do anything. I will also be trying other cages before buying.
Just thought folks should know.
