Key Features
- For Select Sony Cameras with Bluetooth
- Wireless Camera Control
- Larger Grip with Integrated Controls
- Converts to Tabletop Tripod
Helping to improve shooting stability, the Sony GP-VPT2BT Wireless Shooting Grip is a convenient tool that serves as both a larger grip for handheld shooting as well as a sleek tabletop tripod. Compatible with select Sony cameras featuring Bluetooth connectivity, this grip offers wireless control over select shooting controls, via built-in shutter release and video record buttons, a zoom rocker switch, and a customizable C1 button. Beyond serving as just an accessory grip, the grip itself can be splayed into three legs and function as a tripod for hands-free shooting. The integrated head can tilt upward 80° (40° when setup as a tripod), downward 90°, and rotate 360° for easier positioning. Additionally, the grip is dust and moisture-resistant to suit its use with select weather-sealed cameras.

What, if anything, does the zoom control do when used with the a7c?
You would need a lens with built-in Power Zoom capabilities in order to use the zoom feature on the Sony GP-VPT2BT Wireless Shooting Grip with the Sony Alpha α7C Mirrorless Digital Camera. Otherwise, when using a lens that requires you to manually zoom the lens, the zoom control would have no effect. The only E-mount lenses with built-in Power Zoom capability would be the Sony E PZ 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS Lens, B&H # SO165035, the Sony E PZ 18-105mm f/4 G OSS Lens, B&H # SO181054, or the Sony E PZ 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS Lens, B&H # SO18200PZ, all which are designed for the smaller APS-C sensor, and would not fully cover a full-frame sensor. As such, you would have to use the APS-C Crop Mode feature in the camera when using the above lenses. The only Power Zoom lens for the full-frame sensor would be the Sony FE PZ 28-135mm f/4 G OSS Lens, B&H # SO281354, which is a cinema lens.

If you have a power zoom lens the zoom buttons will allow you to zoom in and out. We do not have a 24-105 power zoom lens at the moment.

If I don’t use my camera, say for about a month or so, will it lose the Bluetooth connection? Then having to reconnect it again?
They should keep the connection registered in the camera so you shouldn't have to reconnect it, however if you need to it is a very easy process.
