Can the pistol grip rotate so it can be on the left or right, front or back and still turn the camera to portrait to the right?

Yes. The pistol grip is independent from the quick releases head and the portrait base, so no matter where the grip is, the camera can go to portrait with a simple squeeze. This mounting head is so versatile, it will even hold the camera in portrait in its inverted setting, at the base of the plunge tube of my particular tripod. Excellent for performing macro in the wild.

Yes. The head can unlock (via a small lever) to swivel independently of the grip, and the grip (when squeezed) can rotate 360 relative to the tilting notch at the bottom. Total versatility and amazing grip for the price.

I am able to turn and rotate in all directions.I can turn the handle down to nearly a 90 degree angle too.I hope this helps.

Yes, as the other two replied, you'd have tape or clamp it to the side or top-the camera works very well however you'd also have to play with the orientation.

No you can't. But it is easier than removing grip to get to the camera. You can set the camera to use grip battery first and camera second.

Yes, you can mount right or left, and can also mount with your stabilizer or with the included hex bolt. You can move it somewhat to get it away from the grip and as long as you mount the phone vertically like the pictures, you shouldn't have an issue with the grip. I'm still testing with mounting the phone horizontally since You tube doesn't like vertical videos.

Yes this flash rotates and it can be moved in different directions! I love mine!

NO. The advantage of the pistol grip is for quick changes between locked down camera angles. Shooting sports video requires movement. As a broadcast news videographer for nearly 20 years, my advice is to find a tripod with a fluid head, and what is called "adjustable drag". That's where the controls for pan (L and R movement) and tilt (UP and DOWN) allow for an adjustable amount of resistance to be added, not just a locked or loose position. Adding a little bit of drag will actually smooth out your camera movement, and really improve your video.

Hi, Yeah. Just it is not so easy to adjust the angle of camera since it only can be changed in one direction.

You can turn it a full 360 degrees. But when its in its holder you cant turn it from left to right or anything. I hope that makes sense.

You can always turn the camera ball either clockwise or counterclockwise but is kinda hard specially if the camera is hot (plugged) try to use some rubber cloth or gloves to make it spin, if is not posible unplug the camera and wait until is cool and turn it. In my case I used a damped cloth.

The pistol grip handle houses a release "trigger", the lighter colored piece in the picture. With the unit mounted to your tripod or whatever, and your camera mounted on top, you grasp the handle and squeeze the trigger to release all restriction on the head. You can then instantly aim the camera left/right/up/down/rotate, even tilt landscape to portrait just by moving your hand. When the trigger is released the unit is instantly locked into whatever position you choose. The unit also incorporates a single lever quick release camera mounting system.

To be honest with you you can't. Sorry. And even if you could the camera would be upside down. The only solution to that is To make a slot on the other side of the oh you can flip it around

Yes only when positioned for landscape portraits. If you turn the camera vertical the tripod does not have a wide enough base to support the camera at a vertical angle

yes. There is a set screw that allows the camera to be rotated after mounting.

I do not use it but it it´s possible. It is on right hand side when shooting or function button side.

It's for right handed ...sits across right shoulder and camera on left side of body.... but i guess left handers can use it too if camera is on left side of body ..not sure

The answer is yes. Landscape and portrait positions are possible as well as odd lateral angles as well.

Yes, If you have a pistol grip style stock, it loops behind the grip and snaps to the side.
