SmallRig Handgrip L-Shape Grip for Nikon Z f, Quick-Release Plate for Arca

Whether the Zf needs an additional grip is very subjective. I ordered this grip when I decided to purchase the Zf because of how I intended to use the camera. It has a built in arca Swiss bottom rail to make mounting to a trip quick and easy. It also offers the bottom of the camera some protection from rough surfaces when setting the camera down. I put the grip on right away and haven’t really tried using the camera without out but I can tell it makes the camera easier to carry when using a wrist strap. The grip is well built and solid. It can quickly be taken off or put on without tools. The material of the rubber portion feels different than on the body of the Zf. With the grip attached, it can make it more difficult to remove the memory cards due to the limited space between the bottom rail and the card slots. I think this would be the case with other grips for the Zf too since it’s related to the card slot placement and not so much the design of the grip. I would recommend this grip.

I have the Nikon Zf which is a great camera. I'm enjoying the retro style as I learned on a Nikon film camera years ago. Having since used several DSLR (and now mirrorless) cameras for work and travel, I've gotten used to built in grips for ease and comfort of holding a camera while shooting. I picked this up as it's made for the Zf and is recommended by many in reviews. This definitely fits the camera and is the best accessory for the Zf other than lenses. It greatly decreases fatigue and makes the camera easier to hold. The Zf is my daily carry and travel camera and I use it with a wrist strap as opposed to a neck strap. I like to be able to easily pull the camera out of my shoulder/messenger bag to shoot, and put it away after just as easily. You should get this. I am enjoying the Zf even more with it.

It's Nikon. Somewhat overpriced but of good quality. Functional. Easy to make use of.

UPDATE: Small Rig reached out to me to offer a refund, which shows how awesome of a company they are and with that gesture I have absolutely no worry purchasing from them again. I've updated my rating to reflect that, and also to say that the slippery-ness of my grip has been getting better from repeated uses of alcohol wipes. I believe in my case it was a manufacturing flaw, but I'm not too worried now. It's meant to be used and overall I do feel it's worth the money, therefore I turned down the refund. Thank you Small Rig for reaching out to try to make things right. This fits the Zf perfectly, and it feels great in the hand especially if you're shooting one handed. In my particular case, I tend to use a wrist strap more than my neck strap, so with the grip it's super secure when in a down position and the camera is pretty much hanging from my fingers. It matches the Zf nicely as well. I wished the bottom plate was a little shorter, but definitely not a deal breaker. The one thing I absolutely hate about this grip is that the rubber grip seems to release some type of slippery/oily substance. It's weird, as I don't see anybody else mentioning thing. When I first noticed how slippery the grip was, I assumed it was from my hand from foods and whatnot. Wiped it down along with my hands. It kept happening and happening, and I kept doing the same thing, clean both the grip and my hands. One day I decided to wipe the grip down with alcohol wipes, and let it sit there overnight. The next morning, making sure my hands were washed and dry, I picked up the camera and the grip was slippery! It felt like it had a thin layer of oil over it. Then to make sure I wasn't crazy, I cleaned it again and when I checked a couple hours later, sure enough, slippery. What is the deal Small Rig???

The Nikon Zf is a fantastic camera, but it's not the easiest to hold. A grip is a must-have, so I bought four of the most popular ones on amazon to see which is best. SmallRig Silicone Grip: (Good for: Getting the most secure hold on your camera and doesn't care for unique aesthetics) This is the grippiest one, hands down. The silicone is tackier than the camera body, so it feels super secure in your hand. It's built like a tank with zero flex. The Small Rig grips are the heaviest of the bunch so keep that in mind especially on an already somewhat heavy body. This grip feels the best to me in the hand! SmallRig Wood Grip: (Good for: Aesthetics, looks great) This grip looks amazing, but the one I got was a bit of a letdown. While the metal frame is solid, the wood handle actually flexes when you squeeze it. You can even see a small gap between the wood and the frame. It might just be bad quality control on the one I received, but it's a risk. For the price, it's not worth it. The wood also is relatively slick which might not bother some but I like the silicone version of the Small Rig grip better. NEEWER Grip (CA073) (Good for: Someone who wants a smaller grip with fun aesthetic accents) This one is the best match for the camera's look and feel (outside of the red stripe). The texture is almost identical to the Zf's body, so it blends right in. It’s solid, lightweight, and doesn't wiggle at all. The only downside is the grip is a bit small, so if you have big hands, it might not be enough for you. SZZCNOX Wood Grip: (Good for: A solid, affordable wood grip that gets the job done.) This is the budget option, and you can tell it’s made from cheaper, lighter wood. That said, it's surprisingly solid! Theres no flex when using the camera and its the lightest grip out of the bunch. It's a great value for the money. The only annoyance is you need a hex key to put it on and take it off which in my mind is a deal breaker, however, if thats not the case for you its a great option!

I ordered both but kept the smallrig. It's handle is much softer and grippier, and fills the hand a bit more. The Neewer is thinner in the grip and the grip material is pretty smooth and not soft. and it has a thicker base so it sticks out more on the left and digs into your hand. If you get the Neewer with the thumb grip it sounds good but the thumb grip is primarily a chunk of hard metal so it's pretty uncomfortable. Overall the smallrig is closer to the body shape, softer material and grippier. It's just far better

If you use large lenses on a Zf this is a MUST

I bought the small rig for my Nikon Zf camera. So much more comfortable if you use your camera all the time. It doesn’t add much weight and any whatever it adds is offset by the comfort. Also makes my fingers in a more useful and natural place while using the camera. Definitely worth it if you are using other full frame lenses which add size and weight & change the weight distribution of the camera/lens. Great value for the money.

I was supposed to of got a free one from Nikon , but didn’t . So I purchased this one it is well made and matches the black version of the Nikon z F . Give a good grip with out spoiling the looks of the retro Z F . Would buy again if needed.

Über das Handling der Nikon Zf scheiden sich die Geister. Speziell bei großen Objektiven vermissen viele einen "richtigen" Griff, um die Kamera stabil und sicher in der Hand zu halten. Als Antwort darauf gibt es u.a. 3rd-Party Griffe wie diesen hier von Smallrig, welcher zum Launch der Zf den Erstkäufern 2023 kostenlos mitgegeben wurde. Da ich erst Anfang 2025 die Zf erworben habe und damit nicht in den Genuss der kostenlosen Beigabe kam, habe ich mich unter den verfügbaren Griffen umgesehen und mich letztlich für den Smallrig-Griff entschieden. Für meine mittelgroßen Hände ist die Zf ohne Griff bei kleineren Objektiven noch ganz gut zu halten, beim Z 24-120 f4 ist das aber dann bereits grenzwertig. Mit dem Griff hingegen liegt die Zf für mich mit allen Objektiven, die ich besitze, nun nahezu perfekt in der Hand. Der Smallrig-Griff fühlt sich hochwertig an und ist fest - und damit sicher - zu montieren. Die Gummierung gibt Halt - und zwar m.E. mehr, als die Gummierung der festverbauten Griffe anderer Z-Kameras. Als Vergleich genommen habe ich die Z 30, deren Griff zwar nicht in Form, aber in Bezug auf die Größe dem Smallrig-Griff relativ nahe kommt. Der Griff der Z 30 hat allerdings noch etwas mehr Tiefe (da der Body der Zf "dicker" ist als der der Z 30), aber ich finde das "Griffgefühl" sehr ähnlich. Einfach mal eine Z 30 in die Hand nehmen. Wem das "Griffgefühl" passt, der sollte auch mit der Zf samt Smallrig-Griff keine Probleme haben. Deutlich größer ist beispielsweise der Griff der Z 8, der für mich quasi der Benchmark ist (speziell mit größeren Objektiven). Erstaunlicherweise fühlt sich für mich die Zf mit dem Smallrig-Griff in der Hand fast besser an als die Z 8, die ich bisher als nahezu perfekt empfand. Letztlich kommt es wahrscheinlich auf die Handgröße an. Für kleine bis mittelgroße Hände denke ich, dass der Griff die perfekte Ergänzung zur Zf darstellt. Wer sehr große Hände hat, für den könnte die Kombination vielleicht etwas zu klein ausfallen. Ob der Griff für einen nun "passt" oder nicht, ist individuell verschieden. Für mich passt es. Die eher objektiven Kriterien wie Verarbeitungsqualität sind m.E. sehr gut, der Preis ist angemessen. Ein kleiner Nachteil: Akku und Speicherkarten sind zwar auch mit montiertem Griff gut erreichbar, aber dennoch lässt sich meine SD-Karte dadurch etwas schwieriger entnehmen (wenn man die Fingernägel gerade ultra-kurz geschnitten hat - ein paar Tage danach war das dann kein Problem mehr). Zwei Hinweise noch: 1. Der Handgriff ist ARCA-SWISS kompatibel und damit direkt verwendbar auf entsprechenden Stativen. 2. Der Handgriff hat auf Höhe des Suchers freie Gewinde, so dass ich meine Peak Design Standard Plate (für den Capture Clip V3) problemlos anbringen konnte.

قريت عنه مراجعات انه ممتاز جدا لكن بالحقيقه مو ذاك الزود لان مافيه مكان للابهام من ورى، الشي الثاني اللي يغث دفعت ٢٠٪ من قيمة المنتج عشان الجمرك مع ان اتوقع مكتب ان السعر كامل كل شي وشركة الشحن اللي شحنو المنتج ابو كلب الصراحه اضطريت الحقهم وهم يوزعون الشحنات

Es la 2º que compro y se amolda a la ZF perfectamente.

Polecam uchwyt do Nikona Zf , jest znacznie lepsze trzymanie aparatu!
