The SmallRig Aluminum Universal Side Handle HSS2425 is a versatile, ergonomically designed side grip built for filmmakers, videographers, content creators, and YouTubers who need a reliable handheld shooting solution across a wide range of camera systems. Whether you're rigging up a mirrorless camera, DSLR, or cinema camera, this universal handle provides a natural, comfortable grip extension that dramatically reduces fatigue during extended handheld shoots and adds stability to your footage.

  • CNC-Machined Aluminum Body: Constructed from aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, the HSS2425 is both lightweight and extremely durable, providing long-lasting performance on set and in the field.
  • NATO Rail Compatibility: Features a NATO clamp for fast and secure attachment to any standard NATO rail, allowing tool-free adjustment of handle position.
  • Cold Shoe & 1/4"-20 Thread Mounts: Integrated cold shoe mount and multiple 1/4"-20 threaded ports enable attachment of microphones, on-camera lights, monitors, or other accessories.
  • Ergonomic Non-Slip Grip: The textured grip surface provides a secure, comfortable hold in all conditions, including outdoor shoots in challenging environments.
  • Universal Compatibility: Designed to work with virtually any camera cage or rig equipped with a NATO rail.

The HSS2425 Side Handle shines across numerous production scenarios. Run-and-gun documentary filmmakers can quickly attach and position the handle for low-angle or high-angle shots. Wedding and event videographers benefit from reduced arm fatigue the side grip offers during long ceremony coverage. YouTubers and vloggers building out a compact rig gain a secure second grip point that improves camera stability when walking or moving. The handle also serves as a convenient mounting point for a wireless lavalier receiver or small LED light.
