Love the rigid rig for s5iix. With a video assist 12g you’re getting pdaf, ibis, 5.9k braw all in a beautiful handheld rig setup. With v mount minis the balance is absolutely perfect. I use the Kondor blue blade top handle so you have easy and solid ssd integration. Love the 4 dtaps to power the camera, monitor and audio recorder. Also love that you can still go ultra lightweight with the camera if you pull it out, though we tend to use multiple cameras for that purpose. Excellent job rigid!

Fantastic bit of kit to go with all the other add ones I have bought for my camera. It really makes it all come together nicely I now feel comfortable charging more for my service's but mostly will start shooting my own 1st short film with more planned for the future. It has really tidied my whole rig up with it's clever design and the cables are more manageable going right through the set up instead of around it. Super happy thank you Rigid Pro.

Sturdy and very well designed, this handle perfectly fits my Pyxis. Feel confident grabbing the camera for run and gun situations. Well done guys!

It's literally like wedding day,when they get together (rig and camera) it was a love for all time.I love it and highly recommend.Very fast delivery too👍

Super product

I ordered two rigs but only one handle because I already own several from other brands that I like. That was a mistake, I wish I had ordered two. This is by far one of my top 3 favorite handles.

The only thing I wish would be different is if the mounting screws had rigid heads where I could hand tighten until the end.

Right angle working it's wonders for the rig organisation

I've used a variety of cages and rig setups to try and perfect the Cinema rig I desired using the Lumix S5II/IIX as the camera component. With the Rigid Pro base, I've accomplished what I've been trying to perfect for a while now.
As for those that wonder about audio, I use the recently released Tascam FR-AV2, provides me two XLR/TRS connections that are 32-bit Float and a number of timecode operations.

Super solid unit with a excellent upgrade on not only split plates/xlr compatibility but the logo is blacked out and more minimalistic! Transformed my set up and definitely recommend this as the go to rigging option!

Very well-built and easy to pair with my camera.

Side note to Rigid.Pro: how about shipping these with an assortment of spacers to fit other models of cameras? I ordered the XH2 version to use with my X-S20. I added a Smallrig bar to the top to fill in the missing 15mm it needed, but it works! 4 or 5 spacers adjust to separate Fuji camera models would have been helpful.

It feels super sturdy. Having it all in one makes shooting a breeze. I unload my camera fully rigged and I'm shooting in less than a minute

The CineRig back isn't a necessity, but it is a very useful and desireable addition to my S5II! I can add a v-mount battery solidly to the rig and mount multiple add-ons to the cheeseplate top. The CineRig back gives my camera a definite cinema camera look and feel!
I've gotten more than a few double-takes when people see my rig and the comments have all be positive and wonderful!

Absolutely love this thing. I will say, the durability is a lot better than anticipated. I was filmed out in the woods while it was pouring rain and it didn't skip a beat. Maybe some surface rust on the screws but that's about it.

I can't believe I used a cheap smallrig v-mount setup for so long before using this.

Really love this kit, it fits all different sizes of V Mount batteries, 4 D-Tap sockets so lots of room for upgrading the rig too. Would recommend!
