I ordered my tripod over two weeks ago. It still is not here and just sitting stagnant.

Impossible to get off your mailing list. Unsubscribe doesn’t work. The product is fine, tell your marketing team to get it together

I love small ring products. They are so practical, easy to use, modular and of very high quality.

I wouldn’t recommend buying directly from this website.
The main issue is the shipping with FedEx. In Japan, it’s one of the least convenient delivery services. They send a large number of emails asking to confirm things that often don’t make much sense, and on top of that I was charged unexpected import taxes.
After this experience, I ordered the same item on Amazon instead. It was much simpler, the price was basically the same, and there were no import taxes.
I really wanted to support SmallRig by ordering directly from their website, but in the end the process was unnecessarily complicated. From now on I’ll probably just buy whatever I need on Amazon, whether it’s SmallRig, Tilta, or another brand.

I can’t wait to put these well made innovative cases and mounts to work filming my adventures @vancity_streetbob. These offer great protection for my 360 cameras with lots of mounting options. This would be a 5star but I thought I was buying from SmallRig Canada…maybe I was, but it came from China with an unexpected extra $41 duty/taxes…glad I caught the items on sale.

I purchased the Filter Adapter for iPhone 17 Pro/ Pro Max: FilMov Attachable 67mm Filter Adapter for the new 17 Pro Max Cage. The plate did not fit rubber iphone case where it is supposed slide on. The skids did line up properly. Also, the plate did't line up with the lenses and sensors on the iphone. Either the lens are exposed and the sensors or not OR the wide lens in covered and the sensors exposed. What can be done to rectify this?

Charged VAT on purchase and on import.
VAT wasn't shown on the waybill.
Smallrig have offered to refund charges.

Well packaged and shipped in a timely manner. Got exactly what I needed and at a good price for great quality. Also enjoyed that the website could recommend products for my specific camera.

Ordered in December, delivered in March. I sent multiple emails, their customer service stalled multiple times saying it would ship or was shipped when it wasn’t. TLDR; I was lied to 2-3 times. Threatened a chargeback, almost thought I was scammed.
I needed this gear for multiple shoots and I incurred rental fees because SmallRig could not hold themselves accountable. The gear finally arrived and is fine, but my confidence in this company is shattered. Be warned, set you customer service and delivery time expectations LOW.
3/15/26 Edit: Marvin at Smallrig offered the equivalent of a 10% off coupon on their website (which I have zero confidence in and they admitted in email that it has inventory mgmt problems). This just kind of rubs salt in already open wounds.
I will update if this is truly resolved, but buyer beware.

Waited over 3 weeks with no update to my order. I had to Email them requesting an update only to be told that they don’t have stock and it could take 4-6 weeks. I eventually received the product but I’m unhappy with the process and the fact that I had to chase it up myself to get an update. Had I known it would take this long I would’ve made an alternative purchase through other means.

Ordered close to 1k of gear for a festival on 3/14 & 3/14. Ordered it on the 2nd. It went from New Jersey to California and still isn’t in Colorado. So if you need gear quick and for an event you can’t rely on these guys.

First all the extra fees attached ( us vs ca, delivery, customs) passed from 39$ to almost 100$.
Second the clipping system I taught it would be more sofisticated
