SmallRig Thumb Grip with Hot Shoe Cover for FUJIFILM X-M5 (Silver) - 4877

An indispensable addition to the Fujifilm X-M5 is the SmallRig Thumb Grip with Hot Shoe Cover. Stability and confidence are immediately increased when shooting thanks to its solid metal construction, which feels high-end and blends in perfectly with the camera body. Particularly during longer sessions, when the X-M5's small form may otherwise feel a little constrained, the extra grip makes a significant difference. The only minor inconvenience is that it makes it a little more difficult to reach the Q button. However, this can be readily resolved by remapping the quick menu to a different button. Overall, that small annoyance is greatly outweighed by the ergonomic improvement. This thumb grip is more of a necessity for anyone using the X-M5 than an add-on.

Despite being sold as a X-M5 accesory, it fits my X-A1 like a glove and improved handling a lot.

The X-M5 is super compact, which is great, but it can feel a little insecure when shooting one-handed. This thumb grip fixes that instantly. It gives your thumb a natural resting point and adds just enough leverage to make the camera feel more stable, especially when shooting on the go.

Love it. Really great quality. I used it until now. So helpful and comfortable

Gives a good grip to your camera, not so much of a fan of the hot shoe. You need to screw it in so now when you try turn on the camera you end up unscrewing the hot shoe. You specifically need to turn on off from the front. Otherwise a good product

Very useful. I feel more comfortable using the camera because of this.

Purchased for the thumb grip, which is great, however the red shutter button doesn't screw in - the shaft going into the shutter release button is half the size it should be. There is no grip or catch for the treads. I email the company and never got a reply. I'm not going to return it for that issue but beware, while it said "free returns" the return is not handled by Amazon and the company puts one through many challenges to return it.

No complaints, the material is good quality and it fits perfectly on my Fujifilm X-M5. The thumb grip really helps out when taking photos and the soft release just makes more sense than the original button. Simple design and looks great on the camera.

Macht was es soll und ist hochwertig, wie von Smallrig gewohnt!

This thumb grip is well-made with solid build quality and fits perfectly. The added shutter button is a nice touch for easier shooting. However, if you already have an L-grip on your camera, this feels a bit redundant unless you really need extra grip. For the price, it’s a good add-on, but not a must-have.

Work great on the XM5 body, the thumb grip definitely is more comfortable and convenient for the small xm5, color match pretty well and feels high quality

Perfect gadget for XM5 Feels nice yo hold the camera now. It does obstruct some of the buttons and dials, but not a deal breaker for me. I don't feel the need of adding any additional grip. Great fit, ease of installation and awesome accessory.

Over priced!
