 It's not Remote Controlled. June 14, 2008
John McGowen (Chicago, IL)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
It's a remote control tripod, meaning that it has a built in remote on the tripods handle to control a few features on the camera itself, it does not control the function of the tripod in any way; it is not motorized. Also, the recommended RM-AV2 Remote Commander is not necessary for any reason with this tripod. It is meant for tripods that don't have the built in remote. Built remote allows power on/off, zoom in/out just like the camera or do a slow zoom in/out, snap a photo and start/stop the video camera. As a functioning "Tripod" however it is easy to setup and feels very sturdy.
 Incopatible with Sony HDR FX1 and HDR HC7 July 7, 2008
Luis F. Hernandez (Miami, Florida)
I purchased this product based upon what Sony showed as its functionality and design. The remote control is typical on this unit however, the connection using the Sony LANC connector is NOT compatible with Sony professional HDR FX1 and prosumer model HDR HC7. The picture on the website is not clear and let me to believe that this is what I just saw on the Sony site. When I got the unit, it was nice and well-packed but it had this funky semi elliptical head instead of the 1/8 " radio plug; as seen on the Sony site and other pictures of this remote control combo tripod. I was extremely disappointed that Amazon and the vendor DO NOT include a picture of the plug. This will alert perspective customers that this may not be for you.
 sheer quality!! August 28, 2008
Pandit SG (Houston,TX)
I bought this one after lots of research, as I always do before any purchase. I am amazed at the craftmanship! Its light yet very well-built. I read a lot of ctiticism about the remote-function. I don't know what more the buyers expect from it. The feature is truly helpul in operating the camcorder, without having to reach out to the main body of the camcorder. And, finally, the ever-trustworthy SONY quality....maintained in each and every small parts of it.
sony tripod October 12, 2008
Randy M. Harris (Birmingham, Alabama)
The sony tripod works as advertised and, makes it much easier to zoom in and out. Only thing i wish is that it had a video output jack. On my current camcorder this plugs into the video out so that you have no way of adding an extra video out to the camcorder. With the old one on my prior camcorder there were slots for the video out and remote tripod. Thats not really a fault in the tripod though thats more a camcorder issue. Is fairly sturdy and works well. With the panning i wish it could be adjusted to be a little smoother. Other then that a good quality product.
