I have a few handles like this and 1 that costs 10x more than this one. The expensive handles are big, have a cool hardwood detail, have all kinds of nice adjustable features to angle your hand just so, however they're bulky and more fussy to attach and in my case don't fit the rig. I admire the simplicity of this while remaining rock solid and secure. Connecting to cheese plate or in my case a simple L bracket is really easy and fast. The one adjustment I need this handle provides -- I can slide it up and down. Thoughtful of them to add a few 1/4-20 holes, a loop for a strap, and a magnetically secured adjustment tool. Love it! Great price. Great buy for a simple, basic handle.

Used regularly with ipad cage. They work well, happy with the double screw and good grippy handles

The SmallRig Handgrip is an outstanding accessory that greatly improves stability and comfort during handheld shooting. Its ergonomic design fits perfectly in the hand, reducing fatigue during long shoots, and the sturdy build provides excellent control. With multiple mounting options, it’s versatile enough to integrate easily into any camera setup. A must-have for anyone looking to enhance their filming experience with a reliable and durable handgrip.

This a handle is small, comfortable and easy to install. The wrench to install it stores conveniently inside the handle for safe keeping and quick adjustment as needed. After installing, I feel fully confident carrying around my rig by this handle only. The hand grip is soft and comfortable, and the attachment points on it make it a versatile tool for any camera rig. The materials are durable and well made. I anticipate years of use out of it before it’s time to replace it.

I’ve been using the SMALLRIG mini side handle on my camera cage and it has made a noticeable difference in how comfortable my setup feels. Installation was simple using the dual 1/4”-20 screw mounts. Once tightened, it feels very secure with no wobble or shifting, even when moving the camera around. The grip itself feels solid and well built. It’s compact, but still gives you a much better hold on the camera compared to just using the cage alone. It helps a lot during longer shooting sessions where hand fatigue can become an issue. I also like that it’s adjustable up and down, which makes it easier to position it exactly how you want depending on your setup. The built-in wrench is a small but useful detail since you always have a way to tighten or adjust it if needed. Overall, it’s a simple accessory but it does its job very well. It adds stability, comfort, and confidence when handling a camera rig.

Locks on tight to my chassis, feels very high quality yet lightweight and compact. I've had absolutely no problems.

I bought to use with a MagicRig camera cage, which is much less expensive than the small rig cage. I was concerned that these side handles might not align with the available holes in the off brand cage, but they do! These are fantastic for the price. Easy to assemble and install. They’re a little small in my hands, but comfortable (and aren’t the smallest out there). These were the most affordable for the style, I bought two (one for each side). They feel super sturdy, and I like that I can put an Allen wrench all the way through to use as a lever to tighten them to the cage. Highly recommend.
