Can it tilt vertical so that the camera can take pictures on the sky?

Yes it can tilt towards the Sky --- just not 100 percent straight up. I use it to mount a small catadioptric telescope.

Yes, this head can tilt directly up, 90 degrees. You may have to shift the handles to give enough room.

You don't have to remove the handles. You can loosen them where they attach to the head, twist them so they're spread a little farther apart, then tighten them back up.

Yes. It will point straight up and straight down. However, if you have the 2 handles on when tilting this high they will hit the legs so you can easily remove them if you need to have it pointed up that high.

Tara, yes the tripod can be used in either way, just by setting the plate that screws to the camera to either horizontal or vertical plane.This is the best inexpensive tripod I have ever owned- and I have had 4 or 5 before this one. It is sturdy, well constructed I have used it outdoors in moderate wind conditions (deer hunting) and it is heavy enough to stand up well in those circumstances. (It is better in those conditions if you don't extend it to its tallest. I used it while siltting on a chair.)

You can only tilt it side to side or up and down, there is no actual vertical adjustment. Hope that helps.

Hello! The tripod port is actually on the side of the camera, which will give you the horizontal picture. You can, however, adjust it to be vertical if you purchase an adjustable tripod. I bought one here on Amazon for about $18. If mounted to the tripod, you can move the camera to any angle. I hope this helps?

it can - with limitations: sideways rather than "90 degrees" - both of which can be misconstrued. sitting as a tripod from portrait view to your 90 degrees vs landscape vs vertical picture or "90 degree virtual". with its wobbliness, there certainly will be issues. on a bicycle or in the hand will be issues. I take pics of backyard, some birds, animals there are issues unless this is on a sturdy surface.

Yes it can tilt up and down. For side to side you would just rotate the monopod.

Yes it is. Besides the fact that it extends up to 1.80m, the mount end cen be turned 180 degrees back and forth. So you can hold it horizontally and place the camera towards your direction or opposite. I hope I cleared it out.

Yes. They can tilt up and down a little bit. I really don't think there is a better camera for this price.

if you attached it to a video head you can tilt the head and it will angle the camera up or down.

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

In the direct sun, yes.....but the picture screen on the back can be moved or adjusted to compensate for that. The picture screen on the back telescopes and tilts....hope that helps

I don't believe so. I actually returned mine. The panel can be adjusted vertically. So either facing more towards the sky, or more towards the ground - but not left and right.

No. It's fixed mounted. It gives you instant stability and eliminates the clunkiness of a tripod. You can tilt it forward but it essentially becomes an extension of your camera. Hope this helps

Just a guess, but looking at the frame it appears that it can be mounted with camera on top or flipped over and mounted with camera on bottom. Since the camera angle is adjustable it may work.

It can tilt, should fit any camera. It's not very sturdy so I wouldn't buy it. The silver part of the legs is the extension, so you pull the legs out from the black part. It sometimes collapses.Waste of money

If you use it as a stand, it won't make a perfect 90 degree angle, and the weight of the camera will cause it to tip over. However, you can attach it to a pole or something to accommodate the side mount.

It is really pan and tilt. The camera itself would have to have zoom capabilities. That is unless you are taking pics close up and you could probably use a third servo to move closer or further away.
