Sony AGR2 Attachment Grip (Black)

After agonizing forever on which grip to get for my DSC-RX100 III, I finally settled on this one and even though I cannot compare with the other products out there, I'm very happy with this purchase. I love it because: 1. It's comfortable, fits perfectly, looks seamless with the rest of the camera, even has "Sony" branded on it so it looks like a natural part of the camera. 2. No plastic or rubber smell. I can always tell the cheap products because they have that horrid plastic/rubber smell that I absolutely detest. This has no smell and the material is great quality. It has a slight give to it and is textured, giving it a very nice and secure feel. 3. Super easy to apply - just clean the surface of the camera (clean with a bit of alcohol to remove oils that can prevent maximum stickiness and wipe with a microfiber/lint free cloth), peel off the sticker on the back to reveal the adhesive, push it up against the base of the lens and line it up the upper line on the camera (just as shown in picture). It covers that entire right/lower part of the camera so you can't go wrong. Hold and put some pressure to warm the adhesive and get it to really stick completely. Done. 4. Really does make it easier to pick up because now there's a little lip you can grab onto to pick it up or when pulling it out of the camera case. Also makes it much more comfortable and secure to hold because now you have something to hold onto instead of relying on pure grip force against the slippery camera body. I do agree that Sony should have included this with the camera from the start. My DSC-HX50V came with one already on it - so I don't understand why the RX100 III wouldn't have it on - but, I am grateful that at least they provided an affordable option. My best guess is that the HX50V, with it's 30X zoom is obviously going to be a more outdoorsy kind of camera - so they added the grip for more "ruggedness". But the RX100 is a more refined device and not necessarily outdoorsy, so they wanted to give you the option of adding the grip. As you can see even in these reviews - some people don't like having the grip and prefers the way it comes. So it may be great marketing choice for Sony to be providing their customers with the option. After all, after spending so much on the camera, spending another $14.00 for the more rugged grip shouldn't be too big a deal.

A common comment, if not complaint, about Sony’s CyberShot RX100 series of digital cameras is that the cameras are so small, and their surface finish so slippery, that it’s difficult to hold onto them when you’re trying to take pix or videos. I find that comment completely accurate; I always felt that I was on the verge of dropping my RX100M7 every time I fired it up, even though I had the wrist strap wrapped around my hand. That is, until I installed this Sony AGR2 Attachment Grip. This minuscule piece of black plastic improved the whole character of the camera in meaningful ways. Its slight bulge at the front of the camera, and its textured matte-finish surface, combine to provide both a little more bulk to grab onto and a little less slippery area to do so. Together, the result is much more secure handling. Installation is simple and straightforward, and the grip fits the camera perfectly. The adhesive sticks well, and I scrupulously followed the instructions, which caution: “Adhesion is not stable for several hours after attaching the attachment grip. Start using the camera again about one day after attaching the attachment grip.” By not using the camera for more than a full day after I installed the grip, I assured that it’s as secure as it will ever be; it feels like it’s molded right onto the camera (I didn’t try to pry it off, of course!). The adhesive will likely eventually dry out in the arid desert environment where I live. If it does, and if the grip falls off some day, I hope it doesn’t leave any residue on the camera that would make it difficult to install another one. Other reviewers complain that the camera with grip doesn’t fit into certain cases, and I’m sure that’s true. But the WERJIA Hard Carrying Case (ASIN B094N6GXCV) that I purchased holds the camera with grip with no problems at all. Whether or not Sony should have included this grip in the box with their pricey camera can be debated, but, since they didn’t, this add-on makes a great camera even better. Sure, it’s a lot to pay for a tiny piece of molded plastic, but the resulting improvement in the camera’s grippability and handling is well worth the price. I enthusiastically rate it at five well-deserved stars.

I recently purchased the Sony AGR2 Attachment Grip for my Sony camera, and it has significantly improved my shooting experience. The grip is comfortable and adds a lot of stability, especially during handheld shots or longer shooting sessions. The build quality is solid, and the grip feels secure and ergonomic in hand, allowing for better control and reducing hand fatigue. It’s also lightweight, so it doesn’t add unnecessary bulk to my camera setup. Attaching the grip to my camera was quick and easy, and it fits perfectly, providing a snug fit that doesn’t interfere with any of the camera’s functions. I noticed a big difference in my ability to hold the camera steady, especially when shooting in low light or with longer lenses. Overall, the Sony AGR2 Attachment Grip is a simple but highly effective accessory that I’d recommend to any Sony camera user looking for better handling and comfort. Pros: Comfortable and ergonomic design Easy to attach and secure Improves stability and control Lightweight and doesn’t add bulk Cons: None so far

Perfect for for the RX100 mark 4. Easy to attach with a very strong adhesive. Perfect grip for the camera.

いいグリップです。

Świetna rzecz, ale jak już napisali inni, w tak drogich aparatach fotograficznych powinna być na wyposażeniu. W odróżnieniu od przykręcanych wynalazków niezależnych producentów, nie zwiększa wymiarów aparatu, który nadal zmieści się w ciasnym etui.

J’ai un modèle plus ancien (boîtier identique). Cet accessoire est nécessaire pour offrir une prise en main confortable. C’est cher pour un bout de caoutchouc mais l’adhésif est de qualité heureusement !

Works great for my m6! Easy to put on and appears to sit securely. Highly recommend for a much better grip!
