SmallRig 3857 Reviews

You pinky will thank you

Got this for my Z30 and am so glad I did. It greatly improves the ergonomics of the camera and protects the base from knocks and scratches. It's very well made making it feel a part of the camera. The grip is improved without adding unnecessary bulk. With the extra room for your pinky, operating the camera is more natural and comfortable. It's a must if you intend to use larger lenses as it will improve the overall balance and handling.

It works

I was concerned that it would not properly fit my camera. There was no problem. It fit perfectly and is well made.

Do you need a screwdriver to remove the lever of the door for the battery and card?
Asked by: Miguel
No, the lever on this SmallRig Baseplate that covers the battery door on the Nikon Z30 can just be pushed aside to access the battery or memory card.
