Helps make stable video and makes iPhone shooting better ergonomically.

Works really well right out of the box. Using with iPhone 14 Pro. I only wish I purchased sooner. Adding this and a regular handle to the iPhone Case by SmallRig makes for a really nice video rig - more stable than just holding your phone. I learned this by trying it and recommend this solution for anyone recording video - even short clips.

A must have accessory for content creators

Absolutely love this handle for my M50 MK II. I've used it with various lenses including the 50mm and 18-35mm and it works great. It secures tight, has a good grip, and the double screw feature makes me feel more secure about it not going anywhere.

Comfortable and sturdy

This handle is Incredibly sturdy! It can hold up my Blackmagic 6K pro with the lens, ssd, steel cage, and quick release tripod mount I keep attached to the camera. It easily connects to the smallrig cage I keep on the camera with an easily adjusted thumbscrew. The bottom of the handle contains an Allan wrench, held in place with a magnet, that slides into the holes in the thumbscrew to tighten it up for security. Very comfortable to grip.

Works great!

Very sturdy and screws right into my smallrig cage. I slide a small allen wrench into the holes on the thumb screw if I need to torque it down a little bit.

Great side handle for SmallRig cages

This handle can be mounted on either side of a small rig cage and comes in three versions: ARRI Mount, NATO Mount, and a two thumb screw mount. While there are reports that the two thumb screw mount does not work with the current M50/M5 Cage, both the ARRI Mount version and NATO Mount version are supposed to work with the 2168B cage. I prefer the ARRI Mount as I trust a lateral thumb screw more than I trust friction to secure equipment to the cage. The alignment pins of the ARRI mount keep the handle from rotating. I also prefer this handle to the budget handle which Small Rig is promoting for the 2168B cage due to the screw mounts on the top in addition to the cold shoe.

Easy Carry of my BM6K!!!

BM6K may be a great Cinema Camera. But it is bulky to hold. With this handle on both sides. The 6K becomes - easy on / easy off.

Compatible with standard NATO rail, the handle snaps on or releases a NATO rail within one second without first removing other accessories, saving shooting time. It can be further tightened by a wrench. Non-slip silicone feels comfortable and the ergonomic design makes it fit both left and right hands.

The item can slip up and down within 35mm to provide a balanced gripping point and give full access to cable interfaces. It also comes with such accessory mounts as 1/4"-20 threaded hole, 1/4"-20 locating hole, strap hole, cold shoe mount that support Monitor Mount 2905, Ball Head Magic Arm 3875, LED Video Light 3286, Microphone 3468, etc. Besides, a built-in magnetic Allen Wrench is included for easy accessory mounting and release.
