[Aluminum] The quality of this is outrageous. Even though I moved onto a Red made handle, I am keeping this because it is that good. The metal feels better than anything, maybe the only thing better than this is ARRI made aks. Machining is incredible, TBH this is probably underpriced. I could see it being $450 easily. 5

[Aluminum] I wanted a larger, more comfortable handle for my RED weapon for handheld as well as easy rig work. I also wanted it to be universal as I still rent and rig a variety of cameras, so this option felt perfect. The nato rail is a nice add because I often have to balance left to right with handle placement. This option of quick-shifting is helping me have more balanced rigs and shots in a fraction of the time. As well the handle not only being softer and more comfortable it's also longer, so again I'm finding the center of gravity for better placement far quicker. This handle is quite the time saver and it has additional cold shoe and mounting points. I'm a big fan for the incredibly affordable price point. 5

[Topside Handle] Have not had a chance to use it much. This thing is very solid and easy to mount. Lots of room to hang stuff both sides. Nice piece of work. 5

[Topside Handle] I got this for my RED Komodo and I absolutely love this piece of equipment. I actually had another top rail solution for the Komodo that I returned because it was too bulky and took too much time to setup. That is not a problem with this one. The NATO rail is quick and easy to lock in and setup. The build quality is SOLID and feels great in your hands. I also love the 15mm Rod top placement. This is great for EVFs and I personally prefer to have my Follow focus motor above the lens, and this easily allows me to do that. The other great thing, is that because it uses a NATO Rail I have found myself able to use this on my other camera cages and configurations as well. This is one piece of gear that has blown me away. 5

[Topside Handle] I needed both nato rail and also arri pin on top of my Komodo. This does both. You can put nato rail handle on it, or arri pin monitor mount on it without switching the system. The length is perfect for Komodo. 5

[Topside Handle] PERFECT!!! 5

Gregory	12/07/2024
[Topside Handle] This handle attaches nice and easy to the top NATO rail on my rig. Feels secure and has a plethora of mounting locations in all the right spots. The rail holder is a fantastic addition. 5

[Aluminum] Works just as well as the 2.5 times more expensive big name brands 5

Jeffrey	25/05/2024
[Aluminum] its great! 5

Myles	23/05/2024
[Aluminum] This is the best design for any top handle that I've used. I'm considering using it in my Alexa Mini as well as the nato standard handle can slide forward and back within the bracket and can be removed to flip 180 if needed. Tightens down and holds firmly in place. Essential for using Komodo on an easyrig or just building it out a bit more. 5
