[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This grip is not a gimbal. Not that's understood. It functions as a mini-tripod and a great grip (large cicumference) when legs are closed. As you use the basic control buttons on the grip you'll see how this is easier than pressing the buttons on the camera. My hands and fingers are not overly large but if you can relate to attempting to simply press down on the video record button you'll understand. If using for a selfie shot...it is so easy to flip up the screen of the RX100 and have the grip oriented to take your shot...you don't have to be a contortionist. It is a bit pricey...but there's nothing really out there that you plug in and control functions with on handed control pad.

I purchased my shooting grip in January 2019 and took it on a month long asian trip. It is lightweight and easy to use. It provides a comfortable grip for my small mirrorless Sony camera. It helps me keep the camera steady. It is easy to switch from photo to video, The grip adds bulk to an otherwise pocket size camera, but it is not so large that it can still fit inside large pockets and small fanny packs. Unfortunately, I hit it against something and now it does not work. I am buying another one as the grip is an important accessory for my Sony camera.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product can either be used as a tripod or grip. I needed it for the grip. The Sony RX 100 VII is like a slippery bar of soap. I found the grip to be just right for me. Easy to attach for extended holding and more stabilization. My only complaint is I would prefer the video and photo buttons switched. This is intended for vloggers so I can see why they gave video the priority spot on the grip. At $100 it is expensive but you will have to decide if it is worth it. I really appreciated that you can control the zoom from it.

Easy to use and makes taking photo's and video a snap. Good ergonomics and fits your hand with all the controls easy to reach. Allows you to tilt your camera to different angles and reverse mount it for vlogging with full control. Coming from a design background, my only complaint I have is the straight plug on the mini USB cable. When plugged into your camera, it sticks straight out ready to catch anything it gets near to. Just be careful. Wish the Sony engineers would have installed a right-angle connector instead allowing for a narrower profile when attached to your camera. This would allow you to keep the grip attached to the camera at all times and put away into your camera bag without having to remove it every time. Otherwise a good product though a bit pricey.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this item to make using my Sony RX100 camera a little easier. For me, it is difficult at times just handling this pocket camera with my clumsy fingers and this gadget makes it so much easier. You just mount the camera by screwing it onto the shoe, plug the connector cord into the camera and you have shooting control of your camera with one hand. You can fold the legs together to hold the device in your hand making it so much easier to have firm control of the camera and can press a button (this also activates autofocus) to take your picture and zoom in or out on the subject (works for video too). You can also open the legs and set the camera on a table or other stable platform to use it as a mini tripod. I found this on sale so it wasn't full price so it made it a little more "ok" to purchase and it makes using my camera so much easier.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so happy having this Sony Shooting grip. Its so easy and to use. Am using this fir my Sony HX80 camera. Can take photo or video one at a time while driving. A plus also to the fact that it will stand. I can use is for video while we have party event. And by having this Sony shooting grip, your camera will last longer because you are not constantly touching it other than turning it "ON"...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent grip with lots of potential. I use it as a tripod to take selfies too. The only issue us tge attach point should be a more flush 90 degree Micro USB. The inner connections break. I have limited use of my left arm and hand so this changes my ability to photograph. I get lots of positive comments.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my Sony RX 100VI and I love it! It has all the buttons to zoom take a picture all while sitting on top of the stick. What are you convenience of not having to hold the camera or fear of dropping it just put it on top of the stick and start shooting your pictures and away you go!

The person that designed this must have very small hands it needs to be 20mm longer and the connecting cable plugs in from the opposite side of the camera and sticks way too far which is a pain. Other that it works well especially for a left-handed person (with very small hands)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shooting grip is not only a great little tripod equipped with basic controls to state a photo or short movie, but it also has a lever to advance the camera's lens from wide angle to telephoto.The thumb screw mount swivels to allow for a limited range of camera movement.
