SMALLRIG Top Handle 124g for ARRI 3765

Highlights

The SMALLRIG Top Handle 3765 is a lightweight camera grip designed to ease low-angle shooting and reduce arm strain when rigging a cage. It pairs practical ergonomics with multiple mounting options so you can attach mics, lights and monitors without adding bulk. The long hollowed-out profile keeps weight down to just 124g while retaining a firm hold thanks to anti-slip silicone.

Why it makes sense

This handle brings balance to compact camera setups. With five built-in cold shoes and several threaded attachment points you can consolidate accessories on one bar rather than stacking them on the camera body. The hollow design keeps the whole assembly light, which helps during handheld runs or extended low-angle work. Note that the quoted load capacity is 10kg according to the product details, so check combined accessory weight when mounting heavier monitors.

Best use cases

Small rigs, gimbal-adjacent setups and camera cages benefit most from this handle. It’s useful when you want rapid access to a microphone and LED while also keeping a monitor in view. SMALLRIG 3765 makes it easier to reconfigure on the fly, and the supplied Allen wrench speeds assembly and removal. It’s a practical choice if you value compactness and multiple mounting options over an oversized, heavy grip.

Getting the most from it

Attach monitors using the 3/8"-16 locating holes that support related monitor mounts listed by the manufacturer. For smaller articulating arms use the 1/4"-20 threaded holes to secure a magic arm or accessory. Keep accessory weight balanced along the handle and tighten the locating screws with the Allen key to avoid slippage during movement. Be aware that silicone improves grip but can catch dust over time, so wipe clean occasionally. 😊🎥
