RED DIGITAL CINEMA Single Handgrip Reviews

Fits perfectly

By Christopher

Originally received the wing grip for the V-Raptor, (an error on REDs part) which incidentally I also have. B&H promptly sent me the correct part and told me to keep the Wing Grip for the Raptor. That's some really good customer service. I was prepared to send the incorrect part back, but they said there was no need.

This is great!

Super solid and fit perfectly on the Komodo for that little extra grip. Nice to have extra 1/4-20 holes on top too.

Rock solid

Rock solid. Nice how the screws can’t get lost. Great mounting options.

Great addition.

Very handy to interface without having to take your finger off the trigger. It’s like a Sidekick you can hold onto with all the added quick buttons. My only caveat is the thumb button/wheel feels a little loose/cheap. I guess time will tell if they are durable or not.

Definitely worth buying

Heres the thing about RED. Yes, all of their stuff is pricey. I find myself staring at my shopping cart thinking before I buy anything for my RED. After every purchase, though, I have had my expectations exceeded. You truly get what you pay for and this handle is no exception. The molded grip feels very comfortable, the programmable buttons are a fantastic feature, and the fact that it bolts into the side of the camera brain without obstructing any mounting holes on the top of the camera is a big plus.

Great for run and gun with the Red

Great build quality with great control (dials and buttons) built in. I just wish that the handle had an adjustable tilt. Essential for run and gun shoots.

Fantastic for a small Komodo kit.

I love these handles. They are sold and make hand-holding the Komodo much easier. I only wish they had some rubber on them.

Great addition

Yes the body is the same, the difference with the DSMC2 is entirely internal (allowing for greater frame rates at higher resolutions).

I'm guessing this does not work for DSMC3 cameras such as the new Red Raptor. Is there any way to make it work/what is a good alternative?
Asked by: Jack
Unfortunately the RED DIGITAL CINEMA DSMC2 Side Handle is not compatible with RED DSMC3 cameras like the RED V-Raptor. Since the V-Raptor does not have a dedicated R/S trigger handle, you can take advantage of the EXT port and rig a 3rd party accessory to control R/S.

Just to be sure. If the Wing Grip mounts on both sides of Komodo, will it work fine with Komodo Outrigger Handle?
Asked by: Andriy
Yes, The RED DIGITAL CINEMA KOMODO Wing Grip can mount to either side of the Komodo. If you use the Outrigger handle you would not be able to install a wing grip where the outrigger handle is located. So you would only be able to use the KOMODO Wing Grip on one side when paired with the Outrigger handle.
