This new side handle by SamllRig adds a whole other level of stability especially with the ability to add more accessories such as a monitor and microphone. Now that I can put two hands on the gimbal, making adjustments using the thumbwheel has become a lot easier and gimbal moves have become smoother.
The only thing that I would want to change about this gimbal is where the tripod mount is located. My current rig is quite heavy for the tripod that comes with the Moza Aircross 2, with the tripod mount being either left or right of the center of the gimbal it makes it slightly imbalanced and slightly prone to tipping over if relatively forceful push. What I would want to see is a plate that can be fitted to the bottom of the entire handle so that more accessories can be fitted as well as putting the tripod mount in a slightly better balanced position. Overall the sidehandle is worth the purchase making holding a relatively heavy rig less tiring, while I wish there were different grip options, the rubber grips suffice for the use and I couldn't really complain especially with the value for money.
