'Added this thing along with the SmallRig Mini Side Handle and completely improved the way I can now do hand-held work. 'Very satisfied! 5

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. 5

Perfect size for lightweight setups. Solid hold on nato rail. the adjustable centerpoint is really nice for moving around the camera as needed. 5
