The Digital Imaging Accessory Store
Did you know Video Direct is one of your best sources on the Web for name-brand accessories from Canon (both camcorder and digital camera accessories), Olympus (digital camera accessories), Panasonic (camcorder and digital camera accessories), and more? Unlike the many Internet retailers that stock a few name-brand accessories and a few generic accessories for each item, we go to great lengths to research and make available to you all the manufacturer's accessories for every model we sell. You'll have a great selection and the peace of mind that comes with knowing the accessories you purchase were designed to work with your camcorder or camera and meet the strict quality standards of these manufacturers.
We also carry a broad selection of top-of-the-line specialty accessories from manufacturers like Azden, Manfrotto, KATA and more. We'll be adding many more of these lines in the coming months. So whether you're looking for a spare battery for your compact digital camera or a professional video tripod with fluid head movement and precise pan and tilt control, we have it all here for you. Check out our steadily-growing lineup of digital imaging accessories here:

I'm going to take a moment to briefly cover some of the accessory lines we've added or great expanded during the past few months.

Sony NP-FP90 InfoLithium Battery |
go to the Web page.
We now have dozens of quality Sony accessories for their camcorders and digital cameras. From carrying cases to memory stick to conversion lenses to their renowned line of digital media -- MiniDV tapes, DVD camcorder media, etc. -- we have plenty of name-brand Sony accessories for your Sony camera or camcorder. We have dozens of them posted now in our new Sony Digital Imaging Accessory Store and we'll be expanding the online selection in the upcoming months. So if you don't see the Sony accessory you need, feel free to call us at 1-800-368-5020 and tell your customer service representative what you need.

Azden 500XT UHF Broadcast Wireless Plug-In Microphone System |
go to the Web page.
For professional videographers and serious video hobbyists, camcorder audio still leaves a lot to be desired. While virtually any digital camcorder you can buy now is capable of recoding great CD-quality stereo sound, you're not going to really get it with the little built-in microphone most of them offer. In the past months we have recently vastly expanded our selection of Azden quality wired mics and wireless microphone systems. And we sincerely believe we have the best and most in-depth info on all these fine products on the entire Web. Check it out.

Manfrotto 3221WN-501 Pro Video Tripod Kit |
go to the Web page.
Video Direct has long been an authorized dealer for Bogen Imaging, the exclusive U.S. importer and distributor of many premium brands of precision products for the photographic, video, Cine and lighting markets. Until recently, world-renowned Manfrotto tripods were marketed in the U.S. under the Bogen name. Now this same line is still available under the original Manfrotto name. So whether you're a long-time Bogen tripod customer or just looking for some of the best pro video tripods in the world, you'll find them here. Manfrotto is now also making quality compact, lightweight tripods with all-metal heads for photography and compact MiniDV camcorders. You'll find them here, too. Our long-time videographer customers have known for years that we carry this line, but it is a recent addition to our Website. We still have many products to post, so be sure to call us at 1-800-368-5020 if you don't see what you're looking for.

KATA CCC-10 Camera Case |
go to the Web page.
KATA is an Israeli company that has established quite a name among film and video professionals for their line of protective carrying solutions. Their products are known for being remarkably sturdy and protective of your gear while at the same time being incredibly lightweight for all the protection they offer. They are also quite innovative, with unique features like their Thermo Shield-Technology and Double Sided Elements Cover that also protect your gear from the harshest environments.
