A Vital Security Addition To The A99 Vertical Grip
on July 8, 2013
Posted by: Oldmanriver
I learned the value of a well-engineered hand grip on my advanced Sony HD camcorder. One related to the STP-GB1AM comes installed standard on the HDR-FX1000. I use it whenever the camcorder is not secured on a tripod.
Once I got the cryptic STP-GB1AM strap connected and adjusted properly to the A99 vertical grip, it gave me the confidence to use the robust camera, heavy lens, and flash unit combination (when coupled to the vertical grip) without being tethered to a neck strap - achieving more creative freedom.
I suspect that it might work just as well on the A77 vertical grip (which I do not yet own as an accessory).
Well worth the extra expense and minor installation hassle when considered as a cheap form of "accident insurance" for premium SONY camera equipment.
What's great about it: Infinitely adjustable for a comfortable yet tight melding of one's hand to the "expanded" camera system
What's not so great: An instructional video would be helpful for proper end user installation
I would recommend this to a friend!
