The Sony VCT-VPR1 is a compact, lightweight tripod designed for seamless integration with a wide range of Sony cameras equipped with a Multi-Terminal connector. This makes it an ideal accessory for users who want to control their shooting without physically touching the camera, perfect for both still photography and video recording. The tripod features a detachable wired remote control, which is the key to its functionality. This remote, which attaches conveniently to the pan handle, allows for precise control of several camera functions, including power, zoom, video start/stop, and shutter release.

The tripod's design prioritizes convenience and portability for photographers and videographers on the go. The fluid pan-and-tilt head ensures smooth and steady camera movements, while a built-in bubble level aids in achieving precise, level shots. It is constructed with durable, lightweight aluminum, supporting cameras up to 6.6 pounds. A quick-release plate facilitates rapid mounting and dismounting of the camera, while a cranking center column allows for effortless height adjustments. The VCT-VPR1 is an excellent tool for improving stability and control during solo shoots, remote setups, or for creative shots where hands-free operation is beneficial.
