To be brutally honest poor at best. After an hour shoot the whole mechanism around the rosette was loose and very unstable. After retighten everything the same issue arose I?m at a loss of what to say very disappointed and it is not a one off there several guys in the crew with the same grip and the exact same issues.

Over my career, I have used countless styles and brands of grips. If I'm honest, they are usually cumbersome and take too long to adjust on the fly. These grips fix all the issues that I've ever had. They are fully adjustable with no need for tools, they extend, rotate, and pivot which makes any shooting scenario comfortable and stable. One of my favorite things is if you fold them in the up position, the camera can still sit flat and stable on the ground or during transport! Oh yeah... and I should mention they are very good looking (bonus)!

Beautiful workmanship, and very rugged and sturdy. I picked it up from the store and they just gave it to me, and trusted me to pay them from home or online later (because they couldn't process my card at the Chicago local facility?) Customer service is AWESOME here in Chicago! Very nice people.

So now you have control over your zoom and focus with the Nucleus M, but how do you get those grips in the right position for comfort and control? Well enter the Zacuto Nucleus Trigger Grips. If you've used any of their other trigger grips you know just how flexible they are in terms of positioning. My favorite aspect is being able to rotate the grip in the sleeve so that the handle is not sticking straight up and down. This opens up a lot more comfortable configurations, especially if you're not using them in a traditional shoulder rig configuration like me. I prefer to use them with an easyrig and have one handle up close to the lens and the other closer to the body at the rear of the camera. Like every piece of Zacuto gear I've tried/own they're extremely well made and the connection to the Nucleus M grips is secure. What you sacrifice in weight you gain in flexibility and stability, a tradeoff I'm willing to take. They are a no brainer addition to the Nucleus M grips.

The handgrips are a must for a shoulder rig. They are super comfy for long shoots. They also are designed with micro adjuments that are so easy to move on the fly and stay locked in place while shooting. Very versatile and great for documentary filmmaking!

I used the hand grip with a Red Helium camera and a shoulder mount. These hand grips are extremely comfortable to hold for more than 90 minutes at a time. It was a long take format project and had to be handheld. My hands didn't blister, sweating didn't cause my grip to slip, no uncomfortable pressure or stress points while operating. They were truly amazing. The shape is perfectly designed for comfort. I tend to grip really tight when operating as the stress of getting the perfect shot takes over but never once did doing so cause me any pain.

I added this onto my SmallRig VCT shoulder mount. Works awesome and easy to fold out of the way. Perfect.

Been loving this setup with the shoulder pad and all my cameras. The quick rotation of the handgrips and arm angles allows you to adjust the shoulder rig exactly how you want it. You can get the positioning perfect in seconds and everything tucks out of the way quickly to transport or pop the camera rig onto a tripod with the VCT dock. The adjustability is great for when you are on the move and working with different body positions and camera angles. Having the dual wood grips allows you to use this with any camera platform as we. making it a great investment. 5 stars!!

I've had the FS7II Dual Trigger Grips for about two weeks now. Wow, am I impressed. I shoot a lot of "run & gun" sports documentary content and these new trigger grips make life much easier for me. The ability to easily adjust the arms and the grips with the flick of a finger is truly remarkable. I have used other grip systems in the past but most rely on a screw in rosette mount to secure to the rig. These new trigger grips slide directly onto the 15mm rods which make it easier to mount and remove from the camera in a matter of seconds. I also like how Zacuto designed the trigger grip system to function with the native Sony FS7 grip too. This makes for a seamless transition from the standard Sony grip arm, to the stronger, more durable Zacuto trigger grip system. These grips are worth every penny!
