Curious about one thing: what RX100 model are u rocking?? Fits vary slightly! honestly, if you want budget but solid, check these: - Meike MK-RX100G Metal Hand Grip ($25)
- Neewer Aluminum Alloy L-Shape Grip ($20) The Meike one is definatly amazing for one-handed street shots. Its way cheaper than those wooden ones but feels sooo much more secure than the bare metal lol!

So I went through this last year... the bare metal is terrifying lol. I tried stick-ons first cuz I hate bulk. - Flipbac G4 Camera Grip: Way grippier than the Sony one for like $10.
- J.B. Camera Designs Wood Grip for Sony RX100: Best for ur pinky leverage ($65) and doesnt block the battery door. In my experience, adhesives eventually slip in the summer heat, so I prefer the screw-in baseplates now!

I totally agree with the point about adhesive failure in humid conditions. I did some informal stress testing with the stick-ons during a trip to Southeast Asia and basically found that once the body temperature of the camera hits a certain point during extended shooting, the glue becomes way less stable. If ur shooting for performance, you really want something that ties into the tripod mount for mechanical stability. I have been using the STC Optics Fogrip for Sony RX100 and honestly, it is a pretty great technical compromise. It has a clever foldaway design that keeps the camera pocketable, but when you flip it out, it gives your pinky enough leverage to keep the lens stable during longer exposures. Most people ignore the torque factor when holding these small bodies, but a solid baseplate grip reduces micro-shakes significantly compared to the thin stick-on rubbers. Plus, it does not interfere with the battery door at all, which is a huge pet peeve of mine with some of those generic aluminum rigs... it just feels more like a precision tool.

Same setup here, love it

Totally agree about the adhesive thing, it is definitely a concern if you live somewhere humid lol. I have been rocking an RX100 for years now and honestly, if you want to keep it pocketable without spending a ton of money, you kinda gotta look at the non-traditional stuff. I started off with the official stick-on one but it felt a bit flimsy after a long summer of shooting. Here are a few budget tricks I have used for long-term handling:

• Kiwifotos Anti-Scratch Camera Body Skin gives it a textured feel that is way less slippery than the smooth metal
• Fotga Camera Thumb Grip which slides into the hot shoe and makes one-handed shooting so much steadier
• Simple heavy-duty grip tape from a hardware store cut to shape The skin plus a thumb grip is basically the ultimate low-profile setup IMO. It does not block the battery door at all and costs way less than those fancy wood grips. I think the thumb leverage actually matters more than the front grip for street stuff anyway? I am not 100 percent sure if every model has the hot shoe though, so definitely check your specific version first. Just my two cents after a few years of carrying mine everywhere!

Did this last week, worked perfectly

I almost dropped mine, so I tried:
- Sony AG-R2 Attachment Grip ($15): Sleek.
- SmallRig L-Shape Grip for Sony RX100 ($30): Solid leverage.
I would suggest stick-ons; be careful with baseplate bulk! gl
