Building on the growing line-up of cameras and accessories developed for modern creators, Sony has introduced the new GP-VPT2BT shooting grip with wireless remote commander. This accessory ideal for many different types of content creation ranging from vlogs to travel photography and videography to simple everyday use. The new grip offers optimum stability and comfort combined with cable-free connectivity and a reliable dust and moisture resistant design.

Compatible with a variety of Sony’s latest digital cameras, the GP-VPT2BT connects easily via Bluetooth wireless technology, allowing creators to simply aim and shoot without interfering cables or exposed inputs. The new grip includes a useful tilt feature that allows for flexible vertical angle adjustment as well as the ability to switch from normal to self-shooting mode with ease. Additionally, it has an adjustment wheel that can be loosened or tightened to allow for seamless operation with cameras of different sizes and weights. The grip also includes a flip button, indicator light and lock switch, and can be quickly changed into a tripod by simply expanding the bottom portion, enabling easy stable, hands-free shooting.

Compatible with a9 II, a9, a7R IV, a7R III, a7 III, a6600, a6400, a6100, RX100 VII, and RX0 II Firmware must be updated on cameras to ensure compatibility.

Dust and moisture resistant

In addition to an overall grip design that keeps dust and moisture out, the absence of cables means that the camera’s connector covers can stay closed, for maximum system dust and moisture resistance.

BLUETOOTH wireless remote commander

With a compatible camera attached, remote controls for still and movie shooting can be operated while holding the grip normally, without having to touch the camera. Any function assigned to the camera’s C1 button can also be recalled via the remote grip C1 button.

No cables required

Bluetooth wireless communication means that no connecting cables are required to transmit control signals from the grip to the camera. Simply aim and shoot with no cables to get in the way.

Flexible tilt function

A quick tilt function makes it easy to set the ideal camera angle for a wide range of subjects and viewpoints. Whether shooting selfies or a subject, the tilt function lets you get the shot without having to assume uncomfortable postures.

Quick, easy direction changes

Quickly and easily position the camera for subject or selfie stills or movies. Improve your chances of getting the shot, even when shooting stills or movies without assistance. Combined with the grip’s easy angle adjustment capability, 90° lock positions also make it possible to shoot in vertical orientation with optimum stability.

Contoured for comfort

The grip has been carefully designed to provide optimum stability and comfort, whether attached to a compact or mirrorless interchangeable lens camera. Remote control buttons are easily accessible while holding the grip, for smooth, intuitive operation.

It’s a tripod too

Spread the grip’s cleverly integrated legs and it becomes a handy, stable tripod, leaving both hands free for vlogging and other applications

Sony ECM-G1 Wireless Shotgun Microphone Summary

A new compact and battery-free design offering high quality voice recording, designed for the best experience with the Alpha system.

With its super-cardioid characteristics, the compact wireless microphone can suppress ambient sound and emphasise the sound in front of the camera.​

This is ideal when the target sound collection range is in the frontal direction, such as when shooting selfies or other sound sources in front of the camera.

Enjoy clear sound recording with our anti-vibration structure and wind screen for the reduction of unwanted noise.

This Sony mic provides excellent capture of the low-frequency bands characteristic of human voices, making it an ideal recording microphone for selfie shoots, or capturing the voice of friends and family.

What's more, the cable-free and battery-free design allows for great mobility.

Enhance standard of video recording with high quality sound

Clear, high-quality sound plays an important role when capturing content for video. The ECM-G1 boasts a large-diameter (approx. 14.6mm) microphone capsule, providing clear sound collection whilst suppressing noise, greatly improving quality of video production.

The ECM-G1 is the perfect microphone for vlogging as it captures clear voices, includes a wind screen to reduce wind noise when shooting outdoors and has an optimised structure to suppress frequency vibration noise with anti-vibration dampers. When connected to a Sony camera equipped with the Multi Interface (MI) shoe, the cableless design even eliminates cable-transmitted vibration noise.

Ambient sound suppression and clear frontal sound collection

Clear sound collection from in front of the camera is emphasized with super-cardioidi and ambient sound suppressed to ensure only wanted audio is captured – great for selfie shooting. Even when shooting indoors, the ECM-G1 is highly effective at reducing echo pickup from walls and voice reverberation resulting in clear conversation sound collection.

Enjoy high quality sound anywhere, anytime

MI Shoe support enables greater flexibility with battery-free and cable-free shooting. The power is supplied directly from the camera to the microphone so no issues with the battery running out or cables in the way – even when shooting with the vari-angle LCD monitor open horizontally.

The ECM-G1 is ultra light, weighing just 34 g, and very compact (W x H x D: 28.0mm x 50.8mm x 48.5mm) so can be used anywhere, anytime.

Lastly, a recording cableii  is included for ease and microphone jackiii is compatibleiv with a wide range of devicesv , such as cameras and smartphones, giving users the ultimate flexibility for various shooting requirements.

Sony SDXC 64gb UHS-II memroy card

The 64GB SF-E Series UHS-II SDXC Memory Card from Sony features a storage capacity of 64GB and takes advantage of the UHS-II bus to support advanced DSLR functions such as continuous shutter bursts and rapid shooting, as well as raw and JPEG captures. This card is also well-suited for video capture, including 4K, 3D, HFR, and Full HD video, and can achieve maximum read speeds of up to 270 MB/s and maximum write speeds of up to 70 MB/s. Thanks to its V30 speed class rating, minimum write speeds are guaranteed not to drop below 30 MB/s.

UHS-II media achieves its speed through an extra row of pins and while this card has been designed for cameras that are UHS-II / V30 compatible, it may be used in devices that do not support UHS-II / V30. However, bear in mind that this card will then default to your device's speed class and bus rating. When used in a UHS-I device, this card will deliver read speeds of up to 95 MB/s and write speeds of up to 70 MB/s.

As with most Sony cards, this memory card is resistant against water, dust, drops, temperature, UV light, and X-rays and. Should the card's data become compromised, you also benefit from the option to download File Rescue software for free to help recover deleted content.
