Sony has just introduced a compact wireless shooting grip for its line of mirrorless cameras: the Sony GP-VPT2BT. This grip connects to your camera via Bluetooth, it features a built-in tripod, and several controls to trigger your camera wirelessly. Let’s take a closer look at this handy vlogging accessory! Sony GP-VPT2BT Features To complement its growing line of mirrorless cameras, Sony introduced the GP-VPT2BT. This wireless shooting grip that doubles as a small stand connects wirelessly to your camera via Bluetooth. It is compatible with various cameras, including the Sony Alpha α9 II, α9, α7R IV, α7R III, α7 III, α6600, α6400, α6100 and RX100 VII and RX0 II.

Below the camera mount, there is a little flip switch that allows you to quickly rotate your camera 180° and enter in “selfie mode.” Finally, if you want to adjust your camera angle, there is a switch on the side of the grip to tilt your camera up and down.

Also, there is a light indicator that tells you when you are recording or taking a picture. Image credit:...
