Product Information

CRADLE INCLUDED: This Waterproof Floating Hand Grip Pole features a Detachable Cradle for your GoPro WiFi remote (WiFi remote not included). Adjustable wrist strap: The adjustable wrist strap ensures that you won't lose your camera while in use. MiPremium Waterproof Floating Hand Grip Compatible with GoPro is a versatile and reliable accessory for GoPro cameras. It is designed to provide a comfortable and secure grip for your camera while also keeping it afloat in the water, making it perfect for water sports and underwater photography. Things To Know: What are the benefits of using a floating GoPro handle? Using a floating GoPro handle can help prevent your camera from sinking to the bottom of the water if it accidentally slips out of your hand. It can also make it easier to capture steady footage and photos from different angles while you're in the water.

Adjustable wrist strap: The adjustable wrist strap ensures that the handle stays securely attached to your wrist while in use. The first is that when fully extended, the joint between the sections is firmer with less wobble. In practice, that’s unlikely to make that much difference. But I’ll take a firmer hold over a wobblier one. Compatible with GoPro cameras: The hand grip is compatible with most GoPro cameras, including the Hero 9, Hero 8, Hero 7, and Hero 6. Many models come equipped with stabilizing fins and wings, designed to keep the camera level when taking pictures on uneven or choppy seas. You should also look for floating handles that are lightweight but durable, as well as waterproof so you can feel comfortable taking your camera out in any weather conditions.

MULTI-PURPOSE HOLLOW COMPARTMENT - KEEP YOUR ESSENTIAL SAFE WHILE IN WATER: The watertight compartment of the grip can be used either as a storage for valuable small items to keep dry; or to achieve neutral buoyancy during scuba diving, snorkelling and other underwater activities. When the handle is filled with water it hovers neutrally underwater without forcing its way up to the surface, while used with no water in the chamber it turn into a camera floater and float on water surface. One of the immediate challenges of shooting in water with GoPros is that they don’t float. If you’re in a pool that’s only 6 feet deep, that’s not much of a problem. But if you’re in deeper waters—perhaps surfing, body boarding, kayaking, snorkeling, Scuba diving, or boating—you don’t want your camera ending up on the bottom of the ocean, lake, or river. There are several different ways to make GoPros float, and I’ve covered some of them separately. What I’m focusing on here are GoPro float poles that give you flotation as well as extension. It’s worth noting that there are quite a few GoPro poles that are marketed as waterproof, but that doesn’t mean they float. I’m focusing here on the ones that provide buoyancy. FLOATS IN WATER: When you drop this floating hand grip/pole into the water, it will float. Its bright color will make it easy to spot. Alternatively you can add water to the hand grip compartment, so the bobber can achieve neutral buoyancy underwater. The second is that you can screw off the cap of the handle to expose the interior of the handle. You can use it as a water-sealed container for keys or other small items you want to keep dry.

Before taking your new camera and float out on the water, it’s a good idea to test it out at home in a sink or tub. It’s better to discover any potential defects before you’re in deep water. Traditional bobber handles float, but they only give you about 6 inches of reach, at most. But what if you want some extra reach to get closer or a higher vantage point? Maybe you want to get closer to the underwater wildlife (and no, I’m definitely not condoning bothering the animals), or perhaps you want a higher vantage point for a different perspective than standard eye level. STORAGE COMPARTMENT: The cap on the bottom of the Floating Hand Grip can be unscrewed to reveal a hollow compartment that can be used to add water (to achieve neutral buoyancy underwater) or store small items. Conclusion: The FitStill Waterproof Monopod Floating Hand Grip for GoPro Hero is a must-have accessory for anyone looking to capture stunning underwater footage. Its waterproof design and floating hand grip make it easy to use and ensures that your camera stays afloat while capturing footage. Its adjustable length allows you to capture footage from different angles, making it a versatile accessory. While it may not be suitable for very deep diving it's certainly an affordable option. One minor gripe I have is that it uses white in place of a high-visibility yellow, orange, or green. Most of the time, that’s not an issue, but it can matter if you’re trying to spot the float amongst brash ice or surf foam. There is a small orange tab on the end of the handle that’s used as the attachment point for the wrist strap, but I’d be even happier if all of the white areas were replaced with something brighter.

Things To Know: The third is the 2in1 aspect that the product’s name refers to. You can unscrew the extension tubes entirely and, using an adapter that comes in the box, attach the camera directly to the handle section. That turns it into a handle grip. The method it uses to do this isn’t as convenient as the MicroJib Flow’s method—you’ll need the separate adapter and then have to do something with the float tubes—but it works and adds to the versatility. You then have a choice. By default, it will float just like a regular handle bobber. But if you need neutral buoyancy for Scuba diving, you can fill the compartment with water. Are all floating GoPro handles the same? No, floating GoPro handles can vary in terms of their design, materials, and features. Some may be extendable, while others may have additional features like built-in grips or mounts. It's important to choose a floating GoPro handle that is compatible with your camera and meets your specific needs. The hollowed out hand grip can be used to store important items like cash, SD cards or batteries. It can also be filled with water, creating a neutrally buoyant compartment ideal for filming while diving.
