I’ve had my fair share of TOP handles and this one Is by far the most comfortable and robust handle, the NATO feels strong with great build quality, and the mounting options are incredible.

Really nice quality grip handle. Has a real premium feel to it. Comfortable to hold and lots of threads for attachments. A bit expensive, but worth it if you have the budget.

This thing is one of the best handles I have used so far. I can easily mount from many different angles and positions. It is extremely sturdy. The angled monitor mounts on both the front and back make it easy to reverse if I need to rebalance with different rig builds and it keeps the weight of the monitor closer to the camera for more effective balance.Most importantly it is quite comfortable in hand. I can use for long periods of time and it doesn’t feel bad. A lot of the top handles I have used in the past are less ergonomic and get annoying after some hours of use.Will probably buy a second one for my b-cam.

Overall just a great update on there already existing handle. I love the short one, but when the camera rig starts to get bigger, I need something that can support that.As you see this handle is longer, maybe about 1.25 inches longer. Also the rake of it is much more prominent as seen in the 4th photo.I also like the addition of the hot shoe mount. I won’t be using it for anything, but it does make the cable management nicer. I’ve always used Velcro’s for my cables and this Velcro tie, just slots in so well as seen on 3rd photo.Also the locking mechanism has been updated a bit, and is more secure than the smaller one. Although I’ve never had any issue with the smaller one coming undone.Overall great handle, the way it locks on is my favorite part about it as it is extremely easy to go from fully built out rig, to a gimbal set up.

At first I didn’t think it was possible that this amazing well made grip would work. But I purchased it on Amazon. When it came I was totally blown away by the quality and the feel. I immediately attached it to my Red One MX camera which is 10 + lbs. it handled it like a feather. And the maneuverability was fantastic I highly recommend it for any set up big and or small, it works.

This is hands-down, THE best top handle that I have ever touched. It is sturdy but somehow lightweight. It has a very thoughtful design with mounting points exactly where you’d need and expect them. The sculpted design fits a hand amazingly well and naturally. It makes for a secure and reliable grip. The build quality and finish are very professional and feel like OEM from RED when mounted on my Komodo. I highly recommend!

Ich war mir unsicher ob dieser Griff von Nitze soviel besser in der Hand liegt als die "Standard" Griffe die man sonst so findet wie zB. von Smallrig etc. und dem Preis es wert sei. Der Griff liegt wirklich super gut in der Hand und macht das ganze arbeiten mit dem Rig einfacher, komfortabler und Stabiler. Die Nato Clamp Befestigung ist in meinen Augen die beste! Es ist auch eine Nato Rail dabei. Ich hatte jetzt einige Griffe getestet und der hier ist mein Liebling.

Nachdem mir meine S1H mit Cage, Side-Grip und Monitor oben drauf kürzlich fast am bisherigen Top-Handle aus der Hand gerutscht ist (trockene, kalte Hände), habe ich ein wenig in YT nach dem "besten Top-Handle" gesucht und stieß immer wieder auf diesen von Nitze.Und ich bin mehr als begeistert: alles Zubehör dabei, schön lang, sehr ergonomsich geformt, solide & schwer gefertigt (kann man fast als Schlagwaffe verwenden, wenn nicht auf dem Cage).Das Beste aber ist, dass man aufgrund des "guten Sitzes" der rechten Hand und des vom Querschnitt leicht flachen Profils des Griffes eine sehr enge und gefühlvolle Verbindung zwischen rechter Hand und dem gesamten Cage entsteht, wodurch man alleine mit der rechten Hand Cage und Kamera sehr gefühlvoll drehen und eben auch kippen kann - dadurch kann man bei handheld-Aufnahmen sehr schön die Horizontale gerade halten.Genau da haben meine bisherigen Handles immer versagt, indem sie quasi "durch die Hand flutschten" und ungewolltes Drehen / Kippen entstand.Hätte nie gedacht, dass so ein Handle das Filmen bei sonst gleichem Equipment auf ein völlig neues Level hebt!Wenn möglich, würde ich auch 6-Sterne vergeben!

Its comfortable and strong. I prefer timber due to metal being quite cold in Sydney winter. Hands down the most comfortable handle I tried due to it being quite thick and those big ridges aid grip confidence. My index finger hits the locking mechanism when grabbing which is a bit annoying but the gap is smaller than my previous handle so Ill get used to it.The angled front it probably the main reason I bought it. I wanted to bag my camera with a monitor attached and the angle allows a monitor to pack lower with a small rig monitor holder, all I needed was 10mm and I got it. Overall height is lower than other handles despite being a big handle. I use with a Kondor Blue Cage and it fits without issue. This cage saves overall height as the Nato is built in. Theis combo lowers overall height by about 15mm.

I absolutely love this top handle. It's a huge upgrade from the cheapo version I was using before! This one from Nitze is beautifully designed and ergonomic so it fits the human form perfectly. It feels absolutely great in the hand and I imagaine it's going to really help me out on long day shoots wherein my hand used to cramp up after long handheld takes etc.The balance point is nicely forward which really helps to balance rigs with heavy lenses upfront... but amazingly so many other manufacturers even get this simple part wrong. With this handle my rig balances nice in my hand even with or without extra battery power at the back (V Mount).The Nato clamp is really solid and locks down with no movement at all. I was surprised to see that the SmallRig NATO rail I had previsouly installed on my Nitze cage didn't seem to fit with this clamp... but I really like the low-profile NATO rail that came included with the handle, and I prefer the low profile of the included rail anyway so all good.I really like the range of professional attachment options... I've got my monitor attached with a Nitze monitor mount on the 3x 1/4 20s on top of the handle, but I might try moving this forward/down or even try a low profile monitor mount from Nitze just to tweak it to perfection.This is the best top handle for the Z Cam E2 and any other rig that you choose to attach to. Nitze is not messing around with this really comfortable design. It already has a cult following online and I'm truly surprised I'm the first person leaving a rewview here! Trust me you will not be disappointed!
