SmallRig has replaced its SR-RG1 multifunction wireless shooting grip with an updated model that is now compatible with the Nikon Z50 II – and imaginatively named the successor the SmallRig SR-RG2. While the previous grip worked with a range of Canon and Sony cameras, it was incompatible with Nikons. The new grip addresses the problem, albeit to a very limited degree, as the Z50 II appears to be the only Nikon currently supported by the updated model.
The SmallRig SR-RG2 combines a camera grip, selfie stick, and desktop mini-tripod into one, and is aimed at vloggers, live streamers, and filmmakers. It is equipped with a removable magnetic wireless control that allows remote camera operations including shutter release, recording, focus, zoom, and custom settings from up to 10m (33ft) away. The remote control houses a built-in battery, and features a USB-C charging port, allowing for a full charge in 2.5 hours, which provides up to 40 hours of use.
