Can this bracket be used with the handle extended to the rear of the camera as opposed to the side?

The handle mounts to the bottom of the camera, and can be swung around the body 360.

You should be able to, depending on where you place the mount, of course. The only drawback that I can see is the fact that, when you turn the handlebars, the phone(camera) is going to turn when the handlebars turn.

Those screws really make a huge difference. The special feature of these screws is that they are stops. When you insert your camera on the bracket, you have the option to displace your camera to both sides (very useful in macro photography). If for some reason your camera is not placed enough pressure, this slip only to the stops. I think is not a good idea remove this stops.

The bracket doesn't have much to do vertical shooting on tripod. As long was the tripod is durable or if you have sandbags to hold the tripod down, there wouldn't be a problem. It has to do with the weight of the camera in addition to the bracket. If the tripod isn't durable, the camera weight will tilt the entire tripod and possibly damage your dslr. Best,TechNeek

That is something I have not tried. Better to use a tube extension adapted to your camera

not if properly extended. However this tripod is meant for small camera's and not heavy video cameras. The size and wt. of the lens will also be a factor.

The lens would certainly fit inside that diameter hole, but if you look at the pictures of the camera the bracket is permanently attached so you would need access to something on the inside of the hole to mount the bracket. I'd say for flush mounting this probably wouldn't be the first choice.

Greetings, I would say that typically this bracket is used for holding and using a flash when the hot-shoe on your camera is being occupied by something else. I use an Olympus E-PL1 with a VF-2 viewfinder, so my hot-shoe is being taken up by the viewfinder. Using this bracket, I can use my VF2 and an External Flash, I've also found that the grip on the side (which is a sturdy foam) give a bit more control and less shake to my camera. Their are multiple screw mount points on the bottom of the Bracket, I would imagine that it would fit most cameras.

No, this handle best fits low to mid height DSLRs. The GoPro Would be a little too small.

No. It has a threaded hole on the back so you can attach a handle, or mount it on a tripod or other screwed-on mount.

Yes, but the bracket is very small & very light weight & fragile.. I made a larger bracket for mine. I now am going to purchase a license frame camera.I use mine for hooking up to my boat trailer.

Nope. The camera goes in from the front and lock nut screws on the back side. There is a lip around the lens that is bigger than the body of the camera. I flush mounted mine and installed the nut from the backside. Only sticks out about 1/8"

Yes, as the other two replied, you'd have tape or clamp it to the side or top-the camera works very well however you'd also have to play with the orientation.

The simplest answer to that question is no. However if you could find a screw that had the male end on both ends, then you could screw the bracket to a better tripod. The down fall would be that it wouldn't have a quick release. the bracket surprisingly is very strong and quick to use.

Yes, the camera comes with a bracket that works fine for most applications... No need to order any of the other brackets that are offered. I'm not sure about the warranty. I've had no problems with my cameras.

Yes. It has an anti twist lip that sits at the base of the camera, and having the L attached (it's detachable) makes it that much more secure. It's one of the reasons I bought it and I cannot imagine how spending more would get me a better L bracket.

You probably could since it has a standard 1/4th inch threaded stud on the end, but it's not really meant for mounting a camera. It's made for mounting a speedlight or studio strobe, and would give you limited options for positioning a camera.
