The SmallRig 5946 Mini Side Handle improves handheld shooting comfort while attaching securely to your cage using a 1/4''-20 locating screw. It provides multiple mounting interfaces for accessories, so you can expand your rig while keeping a compact setup.
The handle attaches to camera or monitor cages using 1/4''-20 locating screws.

Furthermore, the handle features cold shoe mounts for adding monitor mounts, microphones, or video lights, offering practical expansion without changing your core setup.
You can mount the handle on either side of the cage. To change sides, detach the handle and reconfigure the aluminum connector to the opposite side.
