SmallRig kindly reached out to me and asked me if I wanted a Black Mamba rig for my R5C. I accepted the offer and purchased the extra items such as the baseplate, rods, battery mount and side handle. From my use so far, I find this rig to be great and it does a fantastic job of turning your camera into a more robust filmmaking tool.
What I like most about the SmallRig gear is the variety of stuff they have that's widely available. The build quality. Affordability, though it adds up when you keep buying little bits. I also like the ease of assembly.
If you've any questions on this SmallRig setup or are looking for advice in general then feel free to drop a comment below.
