Can the monopod head pan and tilt for extending self-portrait picture?

Yes, the head I have can tilt and rotate in order to set the camera at an angle you so desire.

Probably not the best one for panning since it doesn't have a handle for it, I use mine on a monopod.

a monopod is used to steady the camera. It's an extender pole. The camera is still in a relatively normal position. I guess you could set the timer on the camera and use it to take selfies with.

It pans from the base of the tripod, not the head. It is great though. It is the best monopod I've ever seen!

You can also tilt the lever of your Tripod for full 360 degrees adjustment (http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41oh%2Bq7XPBL.jpg)

Yes, I have, it is working excellently! I'm really happy with this thing! I think any combination of landscape/portrait would work.

Sure, using it with the legs retracted will make it more like a normal monopod foot. I'm not sure how low you need to go with it, they get about knee-height with a camera on top.

Any iPhone can take a picture using your headset as a corded remote. Same + button on the headset as takes a picture with the phone itself. That ought to cover many cases of using this monopod given my tests so far. Not all, but many.

Yes, you can. But then, you can't move the camera like pan or tilt, just on the trail.

Yes you'll be able to rotate your device vertically and horizontally with this tripod.

No, this camera has no pan / tilt capability. It does have a digital zoom function.

The monopod does have a tripod socket ( just like a camera would) and I've used it attached to a small tabletop tripod.

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

Camera's position is fixed. I got a Professional Mini-ball head which when attached to the mono pod gives you flexibility. the Mini ball head only works with point and shoot camera's NOT DLR

yes. I returned mine as I was not impressed with the s4 head. tried 2 of them and not near as fluid as Manfrotto. If you are looking for video mono pod check out Sirui. Best one I have tried/own.

this would look incredibly silly if you were using it for stills purposes instead of video. To answer your question: yes you can but it's not really the right tool for the job. Look into a monopod instead.

Yes. The only issue you may have is the tripod its self being in the picture when you do, but the head does swivel enough that the camera can face straight down (and I got mine to point a little farther than that).
