Does this tripod work vertically?

No. Unless you mount the Gorilla Pod to a fence post or handrail or something like that. But as far as placing the tripod on a table or a flat surface goes, no, it cannot rotate all the way to a vertical orientation without tipping over due to being top-heavy.

The tripod is movement versatil, but vertical it is not! There is one option, try wrapping the legs around a vertical object (ie: fence post, sign post or maybe a mailbox post.) Even a small tree! The object does not need be totally vertical, just enough to get the lens set the way you want it.

Yes. Or at least mine certainly does. Oddly the stabilization goes a bit wonky if there is no motion at all, so just don't use it when you're on a tripod.

Yes, It's a tripod. But dont' use it. Get a stable stand. The tripod is not stable

It came with a few mounts. I don't know which one you're referring to. However, if memory serve me, I don't believe any of them adjust vertically.

Hi there.. it does have a mounting hole for tripods.The only trouble is the the mounting hole is not centered on the underside.I found using a very small tripod, for digital cameras, did not support the unbalanced weight and toppled.A more suitable tripod should do fine.

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.)

It doesn't! Can't stand on it's own in the vertical position. Still worth the money!!

When you say tripod, I am assuming you don't mean a regular light stand. If that's the case then no it does not. It's meant to fit on a regular light stand.

Yes, but slightly hunched over. I'm 6'3" and used it standing with no problems. Its legs are adjustable enough to adjust to alot of different heights, they don't lock at a fixed angle like camera tripods do.

Just horizontaly, unless your tripod is a "jobi" style (as pictured) and can grab onto something "sideways" to allow pictures to be oriented vertically (portrait) vs horizontally (landscape).

it doesn't appear to, but we use the glassed for field birding. There is no mention of a tripod mount in the instructions.

If you're talking about weight, then I have no doubt this tripod will hold any sort of camera up in its regular tripod stance.Will it hold it the weight of the camera while strapped vertically/horizontally? I can't say for sure, I use this tripod on conjunction with my iPhone and Quadlock system and it doesn't wiggle at all. I say for the money, its worth the gamble to test it out to see if it exceeds your needs.

Sorry, not sure. It was a gift purchase. I know that the person I got if for really liked it. It can be used both horizontally and vertically. Good luck.

Please note it will only hold the phone horizontally (across the smallest width). Your tripod has to tilt if you want horizontal and vertical capabilities.

The machine would work fine vertically. You will need to be careful as it is not as stable as positioned horizontally.

It works find pointing vertically downward. That is exactly how mine is positioned. And, it is pretty easy to install.
