SmallRig X-T5 Handgrip L-Shape Grip for FUJIFILM X-T5 Camera, Built-in Quick Release Plate for Arca, Silicone Side Handle, Shutter Button, Lightweight and Comfort - 4136

Perfect base plate, ARCA tripod mount and extended grip for the X T5.This is a beautifully made base plate with a very well integrated grip extension for my X T5. I had been having issues with the shutter release on my X T5 (it felt wobbly with imprecise feel that caused many false shutter releases) and having this grip extension allowed me to get better control on the shutter release as well as protecting the bottom of the camera and providing a very useful ARCA tripod mount (standard threaded sockets are provided for other tripod mounts). It is superbly engineered and a pleasure to use.Pros:1. Fits the X T5 perfectly.2. Grip extension looks as if it was part of the original camera.3. Very well made and beautifully finished.4. Very light weight.5. Adds very little bulk to the camera (apart from the grip extension which is the point of course).Cons:1. None that I can think of. Perfect for the job.Summary:This is the best grip extension and base plate for the X T5 I have found and love it. Thoroughly recommended.

Awesome product. My absolute favorite addition to my camera, by far. I appreciate its comfort and functionality on a daily basis, every single time I pick my camera up. I cannot overstate how much I like this product. If I lost it or broke it, I would absolutely purchase another one immediately.It gives "just enough" extra grip area to let me hold my X-T5 without worrying about dropping it. Its super comfortable and grippy, and the built in tripod mount is a great bonus. The battery door etc functions perfectly with the grip installed. There are extra screw holes in the base for other accessories such as a BlackRapid type strap, etc. The extra weight is barely noticeable.Highly, highly recommended.

Was looking for an extra grip for my X-T5 when using a lens that makes the T5 feel front-heavy. This was my choice and it was silver to match my camera body. And the black texture part was pretty close to the body as well. The fitment on the X-T5 is good. The extra grip is what I was looking for. Keeps the bottom of the camera off the surface when being put down. Still have access to the battery. Light so you won't feel much of a difference. Great increase in camera control. Very well machined.

More than I expected. Fit and finish is great and makes my big hands much more comfortable on the X-T5. Would highly recommend!

I took the Shape Grip to the Paris Olympics! Still learning the camera, the extra grip was handy when using my big tele-zoom lens. I don't know that it's necessary with a small lens, but that's a matter of personal taste. Only negative for me is that it tends to come loose, so you have to tighten the screw from time to time. It has a little fold-out band on it so you don't need a screwdriver. :-)

I recently removed this cage from my X-T5 and remembered how much I disliked the original grip. With this cage, I can easily handhold while shooting with my XF150600 lens (and I'm a senior citizen!) I like to come up with reasons to remove stars from reviews but, dang it, I couldn't come up with one. Five Stars.

Works great, it lives on my xt5 and I never have a reason to take it off. The grip feels good and doesn't get in the way of changing the battery. It's pretty light and looks good with the silver top on my camera.

I like the fact that this grip is light, strong and yet has no excess metal, maintains full functionality of the camera like tripod mounting, and changing the battery. It has a arca Swiss slot that doesn’t cause any sharp points on the grip. The rubber grip material and texture is as close to the original camera as possible, and looks great.I was looking for two things mainly when I bought this grip, something to protect the base of the camera from scratches when setting it down, and a red shutter button extension, that makes the shutter activation for autofocus and capture easier.In case you don’t want the deeper grip, it’s removable with an Allen wrench, and doesn’t require tools to attach the grip to the camera, since it has a folding D ring on the screw.
