A good grip

Its a good grip for smaller hands but my hands are a little larger than normal. Nonetheless it fits in the camera bag quite nicely.

Great addition

Even if you have the two handles on the side this handles makes carrying it around so much easier

I use one for my camera for hand holding. Purchased the ring for my Ronin M so that I can set it down when not using. The handle fits beautifully on the DJI M for operating the rig in suitcase mode for smooth walking and running video.

It works as it should!

This handle gives my camera way more control and many options for mounting monitors and steadi screws.

Well made. Solid feel. Precise machining. Easy to attach. Worthy addition to a Small Rig camera cage. Would highly recommend to purchase.

What size are the four screws that hold the handle together?
Asked by: Scott
It is hard to tell exactly because the manufacturer does not specify. However, SmallRig sells a pack of screws that are typically found on their gear. Here is the item number for that pack of screws: SMMB2734
