Not for me

Does not grip well onto my small rig bracket. Does not come with screws to attach it.

Functionally driven!

I was use a somewhat heavy rig when recording videos. This top handle makes holding the rig easier on the forearm and also adds stability when filming. It is of good construction and the mounting rails makes adding attachments a breeze.

Holds Well and Hides Well

Disliked my SSD on top of my SmallRig cage, this handle holds it and hides it well. The SSD is secure and the handle does not get in the way of my cables attached to my BMPCC4k. The handle is a bit on the heavy side but it only means it is durable. It helped me hold my camera on a super hot day and never once did it slip my grip.

Good value, but not incredible

Works great! Lots of adjustability and I really wanted a Nato-compatible handle. My only qualm is that it's not the most comfortable grip--I have larger hands and it feels a bit small/slipper since it's all metal.

A must have for your smallrig cage and especially helpful for use with an external monitor.

Solid

Well made. There’s an Allen key built into the handle to loosen the two bolts that let the handle be moved front to rear so as to balance the camera. The key is solidly held in place by a notch and magnets.

FEATURED REVIEWS

Smallrig for the win!

By TYLER B.

I love Smallrig gear! It is so easy to use!

Functionally driven!

By fernando v.

I was use a somewhat heavy rig when recording videos. This top handle makes holding the rig easier on the forearm and also adds stability when filming. It is of good construction and the mounting rails makes adding attachments a breeze.

While capturing dynamic shots, the SmallRig DSLR Action NATO Handle 1955 serves as an essential tool for photographers and videographers. This robust and versatile handle is designed for seamless quick-release attachment and detachment on the camera, eliminating the need for screws. Simply slide it onto a Safety NATO Rail and secure it with the user-friendly thumbscrew.

This high-quality camera accessory offers an exceptional level of adjustability. Not only can you slide it from left to right on the Rail to maintain your camera's balance, but you can also move it forwards and backwards to pinpoint the perfect balance point for your rigs. This feature makes it an invaluable asset for achieving steady, professional-grade shots.

The SmallRig DSLR Action NATO Handle 1955 is more than just a handle; it's a hub for your other essential filming accessories. It comes equipped with two shoe mounts, located on the top and at the back, where you can attach light accessories such as a microphone or magic arm.

For those using ARRI accessories, this handle features a hole pattern designed for ARRI accessory mount pins, allowing you to attach ARRI compatible extension blocks. Furthermore, the grip provides 1/4" & 3/8" mounting points for additional accessories, enhancing its versatility.

To further enhance your filming experience, we include a 1/4" spanner for free access. This feature proves particularly useful when you need to fine-tune the balance of your camera and rigs. With its durable construction and thoughtful design, the SmallRig DSLR Action NATO Handle 1955 is a reliable companion for all your filming and photography needs.

SmallRig NATO Handle Features

  • Sliding left and right on the Rail to keep your camera balance
  • Slide forwards and backwards to find the balance point of your rigs
  • Built-in Shoe mounts on the top and at the back
