Bought it for my Sony a6600 camera with a SmallRig cage to get a better grip and microphone mount. Works well, all screws were included, easy to mount, good price.

Perfect!

Am I missing something or is this not compatible with the Tilta cage for the X-H2S?
Asked by: Tim
The SmallRig Mini Side Handle with Dual 1/4"-20 Screw Mount is designed to work with Smallrig cages. We recommend working with a Tilta Nato Rail. One you have the Nato Rail attached you will be able to work with other handles that support Nato mounting, like the Smallrig handle below.
