Velbon, a well-established brand in the Japanese market for over six decades, will now sell Miller tripods directly and establish a dealer network throughout Japan. This partnership marks another milestone in Miller's global expansion.
Partnership Strengthens Both Brands
For Velbon, this agreement represents its first venture into professional broadcast tripods with Miller, a company renowned for its high-quality craftsmanship, reliability, and exemplary customer service. The partnership brings together two brands recognized for their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.
Miller's Managing Director, Mark Clementson, expressed excitement about the collaboration, highlighting Velbon's reputation as a leader in photographic tripods and its dedication to establishing itself in Japan's professional video and cinematic markets.
A Legacy of Quality
Miller, founded in 1954, has built a legacy of designing and manufacturing fluid heads and tripods. The company holds the first patent for fluid head design for film cameras, obtained in 1946. Velbon, established in 1955, has focused on producing high-quality tripods, monopods, and heads, earning a reputation worldwide.
Both companies share a commitment to quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction, making this partnership an ideal match. The agreement will provide customers with access to Miller's premium camera support ranges, including fluid heads and tripods designed for professional performance.
