The popularity of evaluation platforms such as Tik Tok and Aauto Quicker has promoted the vigorous development of small video and Vlog, and video shooting has become the daily life of many people. This allows image manufacturers to see new market growth points. In recent years, all brands of digital cameras have introduced lighter and better shooting quality products. The reason can be seen by anyone with discerning eyes, in order to provide convenience for video shooting and creation. Among them, Sony's "Black Card 7" RX100M7 last year is a typical representative.

At present, there are many kinds of camera equipment suitable for shooting short videos and Vlog on the market, but there are too few accessories to choose, especially the stabilizer for stable operation presents two extremes, either the selfie stick for mobile phones or the stabilizer for high-end SLR. These compact cameras have few suitable products to choose from, such as Black Card 7.

Fortunately, Sony has discovered this problem, and recently launched a brand-new Bluetooth camera handle GP-VPT2BT. The compact body and Bluetooth connection function improve the convenience of operation and provide more convenience for video shooting. Next, the author also shares my experience of using this Bluetooth camera handle during my trip to Japan through this article.

The main function of the Bluetooth handle is actually very simple, which is to directly control the camera after connecting with it. Shutter, zoom, video recording and other common functions are directly operated through the handle, so that when recording video material, there is no need to reach out and touch the buttons on the fuselage, making the whole video recording more stable and convenient.

In the layout of keys, the actual grip is also considered, and there is a certain gap between all keys, and the distance setting is quite reasonable. When you hold it in your hand, you can press all the buttons with one thumb. Coupled with light weight, female users can easily hold it in their hands.

In terms of design, GP-VPT2BT is similar to GP-VPT 1 introduced by Sony before, and there is basically no obvious change. The obvious change is that the multi-interface data cable that used to be responsible for connecting the camera and the remote control handle was removed by GP-VPT2BT.

The cable design is cancelled, because the Bluetooth wireless connection scheme is used on GP-VPT2BT, and there is no cable constraint, which improves the convenience and freedom of operation. Especially when shooting video in rainy days, we have to consider the waterproof problem of the equipment, and in the case of Bluetooth connection, it is not necessary to open the waterproof and dustproof cover of the camera, which can achieve better dustproof and waterproof effect.

Sony GP-VPT2BT has five buttons. In addition to the usual photography, video recording and electric zoom switching, a custom button has been added. Under this function, preset parameters can be called out more conveniently, and the lock lever is located in the lower right corner, so you can't do anything when you toggle the lock to prevent misoperation.

There is also a form of GP-VPT 2 Bt- tripod. In this mode, the shooting angle of the video is relatively fixed, so the camera needs to be firmly fixed. Technology bloggers like food videos, beauty videos and us need a stable tripod when shooting out-of-box videos, and GP-VPT2BT can also be used as a tripod.

GP-VPT2BT also supports a variety of devices, and cameras with Bluetooth function and Bluetooth remote controllers can be paired. Next, the author uses black card 7 to demonstrate.

When setting up the camera, just turn on the Bluetooth and Bluetooth remote control functions, press and hold the "photo" on the top of the handle and focus lever, and the system will match in a few seconds. After matching, it can be operated by the handle, and it can be used directly when it is turned on, without any setting. Moreover, after Bluetooth connection, you can remotely control the handle and camera at a certain distance, which can have more creativity and inspiration in video creation. .

Sony GP-VPT2BT Bluetooth handle, tried it for a while, and I couldn't put it down. During my stay in Japan, I basically took photos and videos with Black Card 7.

Because of the Bluetooth control function, I don't have to disassemble the wires frequently every time, and I can connect them automatically after I turn them on, which adds a lot of convenience.

Excellent design makes the handle feel very comfortable, and it is easy to shoot from multiple angles. The tripod mode is also very practical for the anchor. For people who like short videos, this Bluetooth handle is an accessory that can greatly provide convenience.
