Nice handle matches the cage and for larger hands.
I’m a fan of the Smallrig stuff. I was on the fence before, but I recently purchased a few hundred dollars worth of stuff. This is one of the handles I’m returning. For my hands it felt good, pricing was good, overall length 4 1/4”, the width is. 1/7/8”. It sort of felt like holding a shovel, though it was rectangular shaped with nice curved edges. I prefer the wood look, but if you like the polished metal look then this could be a winner. How it feels in your hand is very subjective, when your mincing nuances. On a scale of 1-10 I thought it felt like a 8.5? Again pure subjectiveness and opinion. In the end your probably only getting 1 (pair) handle so it’s not a shoe purchase for different occasions. I’m using a Panasonic GH5, that I was kitting out and the option to turn this into a hybrid photo camera. Videos/photos 80/20. I have a photo of my orange glove hand, the gloves are from Home Depot size large for reference. Here are my thoughts about the product. I don’t own the product just ordered it stuck it on the camera and spent 5 minutes with it on the camera.
Build quality: nice build quality excellent, nato rail very convenient, non slip padding good,
Ergonomics: large, nato convenient, for stripping the handle to stuff into a small camera bag. large rectangular, rounded edge 3/8”? profile front and back is nicely curved.
Who is this for: large hands, heavier weight cameras which you need the extra length to hold it or grip it. It would be a good choice if you want to grasp the rig with one handle will accept a wrist strap.
Overall thoughts Once you get a heavier camera (gh5 or any dslr) with a heavier lens and do-dads then it’s more cumbersome to hold securely so gripping the handle instead of a light touch is my preferred method. Anyone that has a large hand/large or modestly heavy camera rig or cinema rig. Smaller hands and lighter setups might prefer a smaller handle. I like the wood handles purely on an aesthetic level.

Balances weight of heavy lenses perfectly.
I have used this on my EOS RP cage and my A6600 cage. This is awesome for any camera, but I really find it useful for lightweight cameras that are lens/front heavy. Constantly gripping a camera with your right hand requires you to keep your wrist in a turned position to keep the camera upright and level. These grips (I also own a wooden handle grip), really compensate for about 50% of the weight. Not only does it save your wrist but I also notice a significant increase in my ability to stabilize my camera. This is because I'm not trying to balance a 6-10 pound camera with one hand. These grips are life savers for stills or video. I can see it's appeal more for video but I think it's equally as good for stills. I can't recommend this product enough. This one has a more rubberized texture, whereas the wooden one is more slick, but it is a little more ergonomic than this one. Both are awesome.

unexpectedly essential
I bought this handle grip for better stability when shooting hand held video. I had a little buyer's remose when I saw the smaller grip with wood, because I like the look ... But, the size and heft of this grip changed my mind. The weight adds stability, and I have found the cold shoe and 1/4-20 to be very useful. I fine myself using this grip more than I expected, and in more ways,

Pleasantly surprised.
I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’ve had good experiences with small rig chassis and connectors. This handle was the entry level option compared to their wooden handles so I didn’t have high expectations. When I received it, I instanced felt the quality of the handle. Unless you want the wood feel, I’m not sure why you would look for anything more expensive?

I love it when it fits!
This is perfect size for the Sony a6000 left side! When you're using a micro HDMI adapter held in place with the recommended small rig clamp. This is a SOLID, Stable, # 'FEELSGOOD' Handle on your rig. Check the pics out! Then buy! You know you like and appreciate this- I bought it!
# and loving it

Any cage with Center to Center 18mm ¼ 20 it will work

Excellent hand grip for my small rig cage!
I needed at hand grip for my Sony A6400 cage and this worked fantastically!
Pros:
•Excellent build
•Very customizable with handle height and placement
•Includes a built in Allen wrench
•Looks sexy
Cons:
Nothing really comes to mind. It’s going to make the cage profile heavier and wider but that’s to be expected.
I haven’t used it a lot but so far, this grip is great!

Question :
Would this work with the Zacuto cage for the S1H?
Answer :
It connects to a great cage, any other shape does not know.
Question :
Will these attach to the Kondor Blue cage?
Answer :
Not familiar with kondor blue cage but if it has a nato rail om the side it should work.
Question :
Does it fit in smallrig 2229?
Answer :
Pretty much all of Small Rigs stuff is interchangeable with the cages, grips and handles. What changes is the camera (size,shape and weight) and the mounting points of the cage. So I’m sure it will fit but the shape of the cage which differs between cameras will dictate where you can mount the camera handles and grips. So the ergonomics of each setup changes between camera models, usage (video rig vs. photos vs. hybrid) and functionality. The short answer it will fit, but as discussed above may or may not be to your liking?
Question :
Is this supposed to fit the M50 cage? Mine doesn’t fit

I think you may have to buy the Nato Mount for the M50. I had the same issue and I am ordering the Nato Mount instead.
