Amazing handle - perfect for your rig
I got a Smallrig cage for my GH5 Mark 2 and I've had 3 top handles, this is my favourite.I got the camera for a documentary about Graffiti/StreetArt, however most of my time is spent using the camera for photography and I don't need the top handle for that - I usually use the EVF and a top handle pokes me in the eye! This means I wanted a top handle I could easily remove.The other 2 top handles I used were either screwed on, or used a ARRI locator - they were brilliant but a bit of a faff to remove/install when I wanted to switch between photo/video mode.That's where this really impresses, the handle is attached using a Nato rail clamp, so all you need do is turn the lever and you can slide the handle on/off. My Camera cage doesn't have a nato rail at the top, but this handle comes with a nato attachment which I leave permanently attached to the cage. It's pretty low profile so it's no problem to leave it screwed on, and it means I can very quickly clip my top handle to the cage. The nato rail has pins either side so even if you were to accidentally unlock the lever, the handle would move to the end of the short rail but it would not come off.This represents great value, instead of buying a separate handle and nato rail - you get both, it comes with the hex wrench too to attached the nato rail.The handle is very comfortable to hold, it has a soft, rubbery grip on the inside so it is easy to grip and isn't cold in winter!! It also has several cold shoe mounts, ARRI and various screw hole sizes for attachments.My only complaint is that the white text/graphics on top don't look as "clean" as a plain black design, but it's such a small thing it's barely worth mentioning, and some people might find it useful anyway!In a nutshell: A cheaper alternative to the Smallrig handles, but Neweer is an excellent brand and this top handle is a premium item which may well last me for decades! That fact that it comes with a Nato attachment is fantastic.

Sturdy and comfortable
The rubber area gives a great grip but also the feeling of it is pretty awesome if you're a bit more sensitive to sensorial stuff.The handle feels super sturdy and doesn't make me feel scared that it wont hold well to the cage or take on the weight of the camera.Comes with a bunch of allen keys and everything feels super high quality build, and the three cold shoe options got you covered for a bunch of accessories you can add to your kit . Also it has a pretty stylish design.Overall i definitely recommend this if you're looking to buy one of these for your camera but dont want to break the bank.

Small rig handle.
I love this product. Looks so great on the small rig cage. Strong and hasn’t let me down once.

Safe & solid top handle
For me with a smaller hand it fits nicely, although the tollerance on the handle/rail is slightly out so it needs a few moments to get it onto the rail (well mine does) but once it's on it's solid and secure. The front cold shoe is perfect for me to fit my monitor and it's not a heavy handle so aids to making your rig lighter.

Great compliment to the cage
Comfortable add-on to the cage. Good size but removable. Loads of additional fixing points including a cold shoe on the front for something like a screen.

Great value for money !
I already had the Smallrig Arca version but wanted the NATO version as well. Quality is exactly the same for both brands , possibly made in the same factory , quality is excellent
