Description
Versatile 3-in-1 Design
The GP-VPT3 combines a shooting grip, mini tripod, and detachable remote commander in one compact tool. With its wireless connection and ergonomic design, key camera controls are conveniently placed under your thumb. Switch seamlessly from handheld shooting to tripod mode, or detach the remote for flexible shooting at a distance—ideal for group photos and fixed compositions.
Smooth Tilt and Directional Adjustment
Enjoy freedom of movement with a grip that allows you to tilt the camera up or down in 10˚ increments. A simple unlock button enables quick swivelling from standard to selfie mode, all in one fluid motion.
Instant Grip-to-Tripod Transformation
Easily switch between configurations. Use it as a grip for handheld control, or open it into a stable mini tripod—perfect for landscapes, self-portraits, or time-lapses.
One-Handed Remote Control
The detachable RMT-VP2 remote commander provides key functions at your fingertips:
[1] Shutter button – Capture still images
[2] MOVIE button – Start/stop video recording
[3] AF-ON button – Activate autofocus
[4] ZOOM/FOCUS rocker – Adjust zoom or focus
[5] C1 button – Customisable function
[6] ZOOM/FOCUS/LOCK switch – Lock controls as needed
Customise the remote by assigning key camera functions to the AF-ON or C1 buttons for intuitive one-handed operation.
Wireless Operation in Tripod Mode
Once set up in tripod mode, detach the magnetically affixed remote commander and operate your camera wirelessly from up to 10 m (33 ft) away. Capture images, start/stop recording, and adjust settings without touching the camera.
Load Capacity up to 1.5 kg (53 oz)
Supports a camera and lens combo weighing up to 1.5 kg, offering stable handling for both handheld and tripod use.
Stable Bluetooth® Connectivity
The RMT-VP2 remote connects via Bluetooth®, ensuring stable and responsive communication even in bright sunlight or with obstacles present—far more reliable than infrared.
Multi-Device Compatibility
The remote commander is compatible not only with a variety of Sony cameras, but also with select Xperia™ smartphones—expanding your creative options across devices.
LED Status Indicator
A built-in LED lamp provides visual feedback, lighting up or flashing to show remote operation and camera status, so you always know you're connected.
Weather-Resistant Reliability
Built to endure, the GP-VPT3 and RMT-VP2 feature dust and moisture resistance, making them ready for demanding environments. With no cables or receivers needed, your camera’s terminal remains sealed—preserving its weatherproof design.
