Can the camera be tilted down for a true "birds eye" perspective? If not, can you suggest some kind of system that allows that?

Hi Michael. Thank you for your question. The DVC60 can have a manual tilt added to the crane which will allow you to manually tilt the camera plate but it will only tilt 76 downward. To get a 90 angle we offer a 90 bracket that attaches to the camera plate that points the camera straight down to achieve that true overhead shot.

I do not know off hand. But I wonder if you could turn the camera so that is is upside down

I would not try mounting this camera upside down since it was designed for a vertical surface. Am sure you can find an alternative.

yes u can, however, these binos are a bit heavy so I would suggest a tripod

Yes and yes. To adjust the position of the cameras you need to purchase a dome style camera with rotating capabilities. Internet connection works great too.

Just like any stationary extension, you have to manually twist it to rotate the camera's view. Anything automated or robotic would cost you on ton, I'm sure.

Totally different animal. For architecture you need a real tilt shift. Lensbaby is not built the same.

Yes. With the Vision Plus, the camera's tilt control can be set for shooting straight down.

Yes. You set the camera tilt angle by hand before flying. I cut off and filed off the tilt limiters for more look up and look down angles. Better look down angle now, but I am abusing the video cable. It may break eventually. I put the plastic shell on backwards and tilt the camera up for better look forward.

yes you could, it would tilt down about 55 degrees, and rotate 90 degrees. But it has to be mount on ceiling/top instead of on a wall where some dome camera could do.

Yes. Be careful though we returned this camera because you couldn't adjust the angle. This is the camera we ended up getting http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B008OYAL26/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc;=1

Andy,Yes. If I understand correctly, you can tilt the top to where it is on the side and your camera is sideways which would allow you to shoot portrait.

from the head unit i dont know if its possible but i think its easy just turn the camera to the necessary angle..

YES! If you look at a rear photo of camera you will notice a eyelevel viewfinder. It is not of the opitical type , but like a video camera (a very high pixel image).

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

If it's at a different angle (up high or down low) you can adjust it. If it's to the right or the left, the picture will be slightly distorted

You can manually tilt the camera, but not with the remote. I'm sure that would make an awesome feature! I know some of the monitors do, but that feature wasn't worth the cost difference for me. I may wish that I would have paid for that as my daughter becomes more mobile, but so far, I have been really pleased! Hope that helps
