SmallRig FX3 / FX30 XLR Handle Extension Rig for Sony - MD3490

A great addition to my FX30 audio handle. Makes it easy to mount a monitor as well as a small wireless mic receiver and other pieces using the Nato rail and mounting holes. Recommended.

When I originally installed the Sony XLR-H1 to my Sony A7SIII using the SmallRig conversion piece onto my cage, I was incredibly disappointed with how lightweight AND short the stock audio handle was.That's when I did some digging and found this nifty little device from SmallRig. Not only does it add a ton of extra mounting points and NATO rail to the handle, but more importantly it adds about an inch of extra length, plus a handgrip to improve ergonomics.Given it's all metal, it also makes me feel a lot more confident in protecting the plastic Sony handle, and paired up with the other SmallRig part to connect this piece to the top of the XLR jack, and the handle feels absolutely bulletproof now.Honestly a MUST HAVE if you own this audio handle!

This little product actually makes a big difference in comfort when using the original handle on the FX3. However, I do not find the placement of the portholes for attaching other things useful.

Product was perfect for my needs

When I got this camera with this handle I was immediately disappointed with the grip and the plasticky feel. I knew I wanted the audio but was not impressed with this. I understand that they would not put this out in plastic if it wasn't able to hold the weight and be durable but it just adds to the cheapness. And the grip was just horrible. I don't have much I want to put on this but just wanted to see if this item could alleviate these gripes.As soon as I put this SmallRig handle on my FX30 it's like the camera became new. The handling was perfect and the metal felt great. It feels much heftier (not heavier). The grip is amazing and I just can't believe that Sony did not make the product like this to begin with. Great Job SmallRig! I've had many of your products but this is by far my favorite!

The media could not be loaded. So far just been using it as a really expensive handle, lol I bought a boom mic for it, but returned it for the smaller boom mic that you see on it now. Couldn’t figure out how to make the smaller one work.

works good

You need this. Better than a Tilta. Better grip and utility.
