Does anyone know if this has a vertical lens shift? I want to mount it on a high shelf behind me so I can play Kinect without breaking pic up.

No, unless you hang the projector to a ceiling mount. This requires the projector to be attached upside down. The projector has setting to flip Picture, but you'll still have to place where you're not in front of the light beam. if you have the room space. This projector has rear projection, but require the purchase of a rear projection screen. This would be the best way to achieve what you're trying to do.

I do have my projector on a ceiling mount I also bought on Amazon, and the menu does have a option to flip the screen upside down. This has been working great for me for the last couple of months.

My unit is ceiling mounted and I have no problem with a perfect picture viewing on my "movie room" wall.

No vertical lens!! I had to mount it upside down to get it to display correctly

I don't know much about the technical term of it but there is a "keystone" shift option. I have it at an angle and it is perfectly squared on my wall thanks to that option.

Personally, I find the quick release mechanism to be loose. When my 5d is on it, with any lens, the head tips down when shooting portrait style (vertical). However I haven't had any problems shooting landscape style (horizontal). it is a decent tripod though. Hope it helps.

Blake, I honestly haven't tried the vertical yet. I'll take a test shot tomorrow and let you know how it goes. www.redhookfilms.com

I mounted mine horizontal rather than vertical like the picture. Has worked great. No issues.

Yes, The top shelf and the vertical bracket (separate piece) it attaches to mount to the back of the TV mounting bracket by 4 screws. If you don't need the shelf simply leave those two pieces off. I ended up modifying that to hold a camera below the TV by mounting the vertical bracket upside down and fabricating a mounting block for the camera out of a 1x4 painted black to match the cart. Hope that helps.

I believe the eye piece and the lens are designed to be offset. I do not have the one in the picture, my eye piece is at an angle and not horizontal. But either model is supposed to be offset.

Keystone correction is a tool of last resort because it damages the image. This projector has lens shift which in most cases will alleviate the need for VERTICAL keystoning. This projector does not have HORIZONTAL keystone correction, unless it is a setting buried in a service tech menu not accessible to the consumer. If you intend on setting this up in your home it would better to correct your left and right position physically and avoid corrupting the image with intentional distortion of native resolution. If however vert and horiz correction is an important issue to you add Projector+With+Horizontal+Keystone+Correction to your Amazon search window. Also, I would recommend reading the pro unbiased reviews at projectorcentral dot com. I've had this projector for a while now and I've been very happy with it.

The bracket rotates so you should be able to mount it to a vertical surface. I have mine mounted flush on top of my console and I usually have it bent all the way forward so I can see the screen from directly above it.

I have not experienced any noticeable movement or image shift when locking the vertical and/or the horizontal. The movement of the head has been very smooth. I use it with a 300mm lens so I don't have any experience with a larger 500mm lens. Once I establish balance of the lens and camera, the moves very smoothly.

No, it can not be rotated to be use vertically.Also, it's not true 4K Monitor.

I just perchased the H20. I'm use to having a view finder. I thought there may be a way torig some kind of sighting device. The camera already has a means of sighting in. Looking fromthe rear of the camera, there is an elbow formed to the left side of the flash "hump". If youbracket your subject in this elbow it'll pretty much end up dead center of your shot. Hey, it'snot hi-tech but the method works.

You can absolutely take vertical pictures as the tripod rotates around 270 degrees I believe. Buy this product. It is great quality and you will not be disappointed with the versatility of the gorilla pod

It will play in a vertical position but it is not designed for it and it's a bit iffy inserting the disk. I would look for a dedicated vertical optical disk.

Can someone comment on how this is different from a "tilt-shift" lens costing hundreds of dollars more? I want to get into the realm of architectural photography, and have been told a tilt-shift is something good to have, but they also mentioned LensBaby.

I think there should be a mounting button, like on your regular lens, that you need to push while turning. But I had to send mine back, as it didn't work with my camera.

I always hold the tri; pod to steady it. The weight is all on the top.use voice to take pics.hope this is a help. In the pic of the lens it is sideways. There is as set screw on the top for this adjustment Jim

The entire top portion will turn horizontal as well as vertical. It pivots on a ball mount. Hope this helps.
