Laforet Black Walnut Handgrips Mfr. Site
Comments: This is the first “accessory” I’ve ever put my name to.  Ever since I started in cinema I wanted to have one of these wooden handles to bring the mass of accessories latched onto my DSLR back to a more “natural” place.  Aaton camera had these grips and I think we all have always secretly lusted for them… when I was sked if I was interested i making a series I didn’t hesitate to say yes.   These are made by hand by and wood artisan – definitely not a mass produced accessory.
