Does the arm flip 180 degrees and is the shoe removable so I can have the strobe not only above but away from the camera?

Arm flips 180 degrees, then shoe is upside down, so you would have to unscrew shoe and reset it on top of bracket

Yes the strobe has switchable salve triggering, and it can be turned off or on. And yes you can use your on camera flash to trigger the strobe with no problem.

Yes it can be flipped 180 by rotation and removed by loosening the clamp the ball will be on the attach point I like mine

The Airmax 180 and 360 are, as they have the cut-out in the left sole for the sensor. However, you can actually use any shoe as the device is an accelerometer and it's accuracy has nothing to do with "the shoes you're wearing". You can attach the device with velcro to the top of your shoe if you wanted (though I would make sure it was more secure) and reports are that it works perfectly. Here's the full list (from Nike.com): Air Zoom Plus Air Zoom Moire Air Max 180 Air Max 90 Air Max Moto IV Nike Shox Turb Oh Air Zoom Moire+ iD Now, if you are in the market for shoes, I have found a lot on the web lately. I am flat footed, and found that for a low-arch, what you want is a shoe that provides "motion control". In short, this helps you to keep the foot from curving in as you step down. The Air Max 180 is considered a motion control show.

I have to tell you the truth, first I have no idea about your flip, very sorry. Second I've used it only once with my camera and from what I remember, it's pretty flexible. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

yes sir, but if you turn 180 degrees theres no problem with the light pattern .. if is 90 degree mount do not buy it!

Hi Doug, yes, the LCS screen of this Sony NEX-VG30H can be rotated 180 degrees. -Ely

I just perchased the H20. I'm use to having a view finder. I thought there may be a way to rig some kind of sighting device. The camera already has a means of sighting in. Looking from the rear of the camera, there is an elbow formed to the left side of the flash "hump". If you bracket your subject in this elbow it'll pretty much end up dead center of your shot. Hey, it's not hi-tech but the method works.

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.

Marc, yes and no....if you are asking if the screen tilts 180* so that you can see yourself and how you've framed the image, the answer is No....the screen only tilts 90*....but it's a very small camera, and it's easy to hold it with the thumb underneath and trip the shutter from the release button on top of the lens barrel, pointing the camera at yourself.... obviously this is not as accurate and you might have to reshoot, but it should work pretty well with a little practice ... on the newer model, the screen rotates the full 180*, but that one is currently much more expensive...it's a fun little camera if you can live with the quirks, the main one being that there's no shutter button on top of the body...takes a bit of practice to get used to using one of the lens barrel shutter releases (there's one on top, and one on the bottom)....good luck !

I've had a 283 for well over 25 years now. It still takes a licking & keeps on flashing. As far as rotating the flash head is concerned, you should be able to simply grasp the (top) horizontal section of the unit, while holding the bottom section (vertical) & elevate it. The 283 has an indicator that shows you the angle percent right on the joint where it pivots. There's no release button or latch, you just bend it up & it clicks into the various degrees/angles. This flash is very well built and mine still works like it just came out of the box. Hope this helped you.

Yes... Screw hole in top of camera allows you to mount post from top. Camera is never actually upside down.

You can angle it up & down as well as side to side. So if you need to angle and bounce the flash you're good to go.

Mine rotates to some extent [more like a pivot?]. It's nice to be able to shift the beam on trails when someone is walking towards me so I'm not blinding them.

Yes. Between the swivel of the arm and the rotation at the end of the arm, there's probably close to 360 degrees; I don't have enough room to check that, but 180 for sure just with the rotation.

It is very secure. Uses a thumb wheel to tighten same as the flash uses. The viewfinder tilts so if it were to snag it will just tilt up and not snag or break. I leave mine dedicated on the 5N since I got it. It is a quality unit.

On my system the right-side up or upside down is controlled and side slew is controlled also by the controls on the monitor. Andyou can reverse the camera.
