Fujifilm X Half compact camera bolsters ergonomics through new SmallRig add-ons

The British camera accessory brand, SmallRig, has launched a range of accessories tailored for the Fujifilm X Half, a compact camera with a retro-inspired design. These accessories are designed to enhance practicality, making the camera more comfortable during long shooting sessions, and address optics and protection to ensure images retain clarity and contrast, especially in mixed lighting conditions.

One of the most notable additions is the Vintage Leather Case Kit. This kit provides a plush-lined half case, an integrated grip, and a woven strap wrapped in genuine leather, enhancing the camera’s retro look while significantly improving grip and handling ergonomics. The Thumb Grip, another accessory, adds anti-slip support for better one-handed shooting, particularly beneficial for users with larger hands.

For those seeking a more ergonomic grip, the L-Shaped Grip with Wooden Handle is an excellent choice. Made from natural solid wood, this accessory offers a warm, ergonomic grip that adds vintage charm and a secure, non-slip hold. It includes exclusive Fujifilm X Half engraving and maintains full access to ports, controls, battery compartment, and slots.

SmallRig also offers two L-bracket choices for the X Half camera, one with a charcoal-colored silicone handle and another with a wooden grip, both designed for versatile mounting and improved handling.

To address optics and protection, SmallRig has developed filters and a lens hood for the Fujifilm X Half. The aluminum alloy lens hood offers an extra layer of durability, while the magnetic UV and VND filters attach quickly, resist glare, scratches, and water, and keep flare under control.

These accessories focus on enhancing the camera’s ergonomics and practical usability during shooting without compromising its compact, stylish design. Kalum Carter, a photographer, filmmaker, creative director, and writer with over 10 years of experience in visual storytelling, highlights the benefits of these accessories for a camera that is likely to be carried everywhere.
