Overall, the grip kit with cage for the Osmo Action 6 makes a really good impression. The workmanship is really great. The metal cage is neatly milled, sturdy and keeps the camera securely in place. Nothing wobbles, all buttons and ports remain easily accessible and the quick release also works reliably.
What I also like is the overall high-quality look. The set doesn't feel like cheap accessories, but thoughtful and practical. The cage is permanent on my Action 6, regardless of whether the handle is on or not. The hot shoe at the top is practical if you want to mount a small light or microphone and significantly expands the range of uses. Especially because a hot shoe is also milled into the extended trigger, it is good to think about it.
However, the weight and ergonomics of the handle were not entirely convincing to me. The cage itself barely weighs anything, but the handle makes the action cam significantly heavier, which is particularly noticeable when taking longer shots. In addition, although the handle feels okay in the hand, it could be ergonomically shaped a bit better. It gets a bit uncomfortable, especially during longer sessions.
Despite the criticisms, it is still a really good and high-quality set of accessories that does its job and complements the camera in a useful way. That's why I give it 4 out of 5 stars.
