[Aluminum] I have the SmallRig cage for my BMPCC4K. I wanted to have a handle with hot shoe mounts that had a NATO rail system to work with the NATO rail on the front of my BMPCC4K cage. This would enable me to quickly remove the monitor from the top of my camera, so I could attach the camera to my gimbal.

Thankfully there is a hot shoe mount at the front of the handle, and on the back. The back hot shoe mount enables me to add my RODE Wireless GO mic unit to the handle so I can shoot wirelessly when on a tripod. The SmallRig cage has hot shoe mounts so I can also add my Wireless GO unit to the cage when shooting on a gimbal.


All in all, this is the best handle I found for my camera cage for shooting videos.

[Topside Handle] I purchased this handle for my Sony A7iii. When shooting video, I use the camera's viewfinder in some circumstances - particularly when ambient light makes it difficult to use the monitor on the rear of the camera. However, when mounted on a cage, my prior handle protrudes to the rear, preventing me from getting my eye close enough to the viewfinder. The sliding feature of the handle allowed a setting that doesn't prevent me from using the viewfinder while still allowing me to use the handle for tracking shots.

[Aluminum] NATO-rail mounting is fast and foolproof. There's some adjustment possible to handle position in addition to choosing forward- or backward-facing direction. Has mounting holes for additional parts. The included allen wrench, which snugly fits flush into the side of the handle not shown here, has a magnet to hold it in place. You almost don't even notice it until you go to assemble/disassemble this or any number of other pieces of your rig, and then you see it just as you're about to go dig one out of your bag. This brings a slight smile, and on you go. Nice touch.

[0.615 lb] Great handgrip for my raptor! I place it on the back right to counter support when I operate on an easy-rig.

[Aluminum] Nice strong little handle. Basic but well thought out. Used as a side handle on Komodo.

[Aluminum] Perfect size for lightweight setups. Solid hold on nato rail. the adjustable centerpoint is really nice for moving around the camera as needed.

[Aluminum] I had another one, and was happy but not really satisfied.


Then i searched for a handle which you can position where you like it.


The balance of my rig is now better, because the Atomos is more to the back. This handle is perfect for that.


On the right side i put a NATO rail so i can detach my wooden grip from the right side of the camera and put in on the top handle, so it perfectly fits my camera bag.


This top handle is the best i could imagine.

[Topside Handle] Literally amazing. I bought this cage for my Canon 70D to try out something thatll hopefully give me a bit more stability and to be able to use an external monitor and mic and it worked better than what I thought. It holds up incredibly well, nothing loosens nor falls off and provides a GREAT amount of support for items and good sense of stability when filming. This is definitely being used every time I go film.
