This is a video handle that fits most DSLR and mirrorless cameras through a hot / cold shoe adapter. I decided to design this after seeing the SmallRig cage handle designed by Lucas_Ault, though I wanted something that I could use without the SmallRig cage and that would allow me to mount microphones and other accessories on it.

To assemble the handle, you will need:

• 2 M4 x 12 cap head screws
• 2 M4 nuts
• A cold shoe adapter bracket similar to this one

It can be a little tricky to get the front screw tightened, but it is possible with a short hex key.

Included with this are 2 different cold shoe mounts that slot into the bottom side of the handle. One provides a side cold shoe mount, while the other provides a downward facing cold shoe mount. I personally use the downward mount for my Zoom H1n recorder using another cold shoe adapter bracket, though it can be hard to get accessories to fit in the downward bracket due to clearance issues with certain lenses.

For printing, the bracket can easily be printed on its side without supports. The grip prints best when printed upside down, with supports. The downward bracket should be printed flat side down without supports. The side bracket can be difficult to print, but I've found that it can be printed bracket-side down with supports for best results.
