SmallRig 5977 Top Handle w/ Nato Clamp

SmallRig 5977 Top Handle w/ NATO Clamp: Support handheld video work

More controlled handheld footage starts with a steady grip above the camera, rather than holding the rig only from the side. The SmallRig 5977 Top Handle w/ NATO Clamp weighs 119 g and attaches to a camera cage’s NATO rail with its integrated clamp. It’s a shoulder-rig accessory for video operators who need extra support during handheld work. The hand-tightened locking knob secures the handle without a separate tool, so it’s quick to fit or remove between setups. Two cold shoe mounts and an ARRI 3/8"-16 threaded hole provide attachment points for accessories such as a video light or monitor bracket. Use it to guide a cage-mounted camera through a moving shot, keep a handhold available during handheld interviews, or add accessories while filming on location. Its streamlined shape and PC+ABS construction keep the grip comfortable to hold, including in colder conditions.

On-rig handling

• NATO clamp: The integrated clamp attaches to a NATO rail on a camera cage. Turn the locking knob by hand to secure it without reaching for a tool.
• Two cold shoe mounts: These provide quick attachment points for accessories such as a monitor bracket or video light, keeping them close to the camera rig.
• ARRI 3/8"-16 threaded hole: Use this additional mounting point when your setup needs an accessory attached via that thread.
• 10 kg load capacity: The stated capacity gives the handle a clear maximum load for a supported rig setup. Keep the full rig’s load within that limit.
• Compact dimensions: At 128.8 x 81.6 x 25 mm, the handle adds a defined grip above the cage without a long extension.
