game changer! - Camera and Photo

Really sturdy and offers a lot of support when carrying the installed camera frame as well as when shooting from low angles. The grip and the texture on the handle are really well done. It's soft and sticky.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Good but not great

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Convenient, but the cold shoe mount is small.

Much more practical than I thought. The 1/4 holes are perfect for mounting a monitor, but the only downside is the cold shoe mount. It's too thin to attach a cold shoe to it and make sure it's secure. The cold shoe tongues are quite thick and strong, but other cold shoe mounts will sag a bit.

Pros
  • Fits many
Cons
  • Protection

Very comfortable grip in professional video accessories

If you need a top grip for your camera, then this thing is for you! The durable and comfortable rubber is really great for a secure grip. I was surprised how well made this thing is, it even has a comfortable cold shoe on top. The only downside is that the heads of the included screws can break off with repeated tightening, so you may want to replace them at some point. Otherwise great value for money!

Pros
  • Nice little things

That's a great value, I would just add a feature.

The ability to customize handle orientation with mounting options makes this a must buy. I've tried several ways to attach it to the side of the cage to provide vertical support to no avail. and since i use the hot shoe already on top of the camera, i can only use it on the side. It still works well but if there was a way to easily rotate the mount so you could side mount the handle that would be great.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Unsure

Always great quality - but I would happily buy a different model.

I LOVE SmallRig so much. All cage installation for my camera is done by them. However, I do regret that I chose THIS SPECIFIC pen and not one of the others. In theory, rubber on the grip is a good idea. but unless you're shooting in conditions - without a harness or other support - I'd recommend one of their other models, which are more versatile. The shoes are great but because they are so high you have to be careful what you put in them. .I always give SmallRig 5 stars for everything because…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Sad hardware

Super Comfortable Grip

If you need a top grip for your camera, this thing will do the job! Sturdy and comfortable, the rubber is really great for a secure grip. I was surprised at how well made the thing is, it even has a handy cold shoe on top.Only downside is the supplied screw heads feel like they could snap off with repeated tightening, so you might want to replace them at some point. Otherwise excellent value - money!

Pros
  • Easy Installation: This SMALLRIG camera grip attaches to your rig with two included 1/4"-20 screws and an allen wrench, the adjustable distance between two 1/4" screws is 30-40mm
Cons
  • What else something
