SmallRig has announced 4 accessories for the newly released Zhiyun Crane 2S. These include a Dual Handgrip, ling Grip, Mounting Clamp, and a Side Mounting plate.

The Dual Handgrip was designed to reduce arm fatigue during long shooting sessions and provide extra accessory mounts. The dual handgrip locks onto CRANE 2S via a quick-release clamp and features rubber pads to prevent scratching.

The handgrip is horizontally adjustable through the use of an integrated NATO rail. This allows users to adjust the handle direction when the gimbal is in the inverted mode. The modular-designed handle can be disassembled into five parts for storage and transportation.

It will start shipping on the 28th of September for $74.90 USD.

The Sling Grip allows CRANE 2S users to enter a handy underslung position with additional mounting points. The handgrip gives you 180-degree adjustment via the rosette joint to either serve as a side handle or be fixed to another customized position.

The handle secures to CRANE 2S via a quick release clamp with a rubber pad inside to prevent scratching. It features multiple 1/4”-20 and ARRI 3/8”-16 mounts which enable you to mount a wide range of accessories, such as the separately available Cold Shoe 2260 and Magic Arm 2115.

The top of the handle features an integrated cold shoe

The Sling Grip retails for $64.90 USD and it will start shipping on the 28th of September.

The Mounting Clamp is handy if you want to add additional accessory options. The clamp locks onto the neck of CRANE 2S via two captive m4 screws, and it features multiple 1/4″-20 threaded holes and ARRI 3/8″-16 threads. Each side of the clamp incorporates a NATO rail that allows you to quickly release accessories to set up a dual handle. The interior of the clamp features rubber pads to prevent scratching.

The maximum payload for the Mounting Clamp is 10kg.

It will be available on the 28th of September for $23.90 USD.

The Side Mounting Plate features four 1/4″-20 threaded holes and an ARRI 3/8″-16 locating hole for additional mounting. There is also a built-in NATO rail that enables quick release of accessories. The plate locks onto the side of gimbal via a captive 1/4″-20 screw and it features an integrated rosette to prevent twisting.

It will be available on the 28th of September for $12.90 USD.
