This handle is designed for low-angle shots, and it delivers on that promise by reducing strain on my arms during extended shoots. Weighing only 124g due to its hollowed-out aluminum alloy design, it’s impressively lightweight yet feels incredibly sturdy and durable, making it easy to carry my rig around without fatigue. The ergonomic design with anti-slip and anti-freeze silicone padding is a standout. It provides a comfortable grip, even in colder conditions, which is a thoughtful touch for outdoor shoots. The five cold shoe mounts (three front, two rear) are a game-changer, allowing me to simultaneously mount accessories like a microphone, LED light, and my VILTROX DC-X2 monitor without cluttering the setup. The abundance of 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting points further enhances its versatility, letting me attach additional gear like a monitor mount (SmallRig 2903) or magic arm with ease. Review: SmallRig Top Handle with 3/8”-16 – Sturdy and Versatile, but Not for Everyone - Pros βœ… Solid Build Quality – Made from aluminum alloy, the handle feels extremely durable and well-constructed, ensuring a secure grip for handheld shooting. βœ… Comfortable Ergonomics – The handle is well-shaped, making it easy to carry and operate your camera for extended periods without fatigue. βœ… Plenty of Mounting Points – Features multiple 1/4”-20 and 3/8”-16 threads, as well as ARRI-style locating holes, allowing for additional accessories like monitors, microphones, or lights. βœ… Secure Locking Mechanism – The 3/8”-16 screw with anti-twist pins ensures a firm and stable attachment to your camera cage, preventing unwanted movement. βœ… Sleek and Lightweight – Despite its rugged build, it doesn’t add too much extra weight to your rig, making it a practical addition for run-and-gun setups. Cons ❌ Limited Adjustability – Unlike NATO rail top handles, this one requires screwing and unscrewing for adjustments, making repositioning slower. ❌ Requires Compatible Cage – Designed specifically for cages with a 3/8”-16 mounting point with ARRI-style anti-twist holes, meaning it won’t fit all setups out of the box. ❌ Slightly Pricey for What It Offers – While the quality is excellent, there are other top handles with similar features at a slightly lower price point. Final Verdict The SmallRig Top Handle with 3/8”-16 is a fantastic choice for filmmakers who need a sturdy and reliable grip for their camera rig. It’s ideal for handheld shots and adding accessories, but if you prefer quick repositioning, a NATO-compatible handle might be a better fit. ## Features - Compatibility : SMALLRIG Top Handle with Locating Holes for ARRI 3765 is designed to facilitate low-angle shot and reduce burdens on arms, compatibility for Universal cold/hot shoe mount - Lightweight Only 124g : Hollowed-out design makes it weigh only 124g.
