### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comfortable and light

Comfortable in the hand, really light, just make sure you have the NATO system.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid top handle with many mounting points!
*by M***W on December 2, 2023*

This is definitely a lite handle. I use it for my m50 handheld setup. The fact that this has so many mounting options for its size is great. Even though it’s small you have plenty of room for bigger hands. I’m able to run mic, monitor and lights without any loosening. Definitely a great build and tool to add to your camera bag. Smallrig always seems to come through with true quality every time.
