is it rotatable and can it hold a regular camcorder

Hi, -it's rotatable but we can't confirm whether it can hold a regular camcorder. You can try it. Thank you.

I use it for a gopro hero3, I wouldn't recommend anything much heavier than that.

Should be no problem; most, if not all, camcorders have a standard 1/4" socket on the bottom.

Yes or No - The device has two cameras that swivel. One camera is wide angle and the other is standard. You can turn either camera to the rear, or side if you desire. It is a great product and I am very satisfied.

I looked up that model camera an it looks like its fine for the size of the tripod, I have a FS300 and its balanced.It does help to tighten the tilt screw with a flat blade screwdriver. But the magnets help keep it stable but wont hold it sideways unless its a really small point N shoot camera.

It has a standard male threaded stud (1/4-20 I think) and a fixed (not spring loaded) indexing nub. If your camcorder has the standard female threaded hole for mounting on a tri-pod and the hole or recess for the indexing nub then the only problem would be the two raised finger tabs used to release the mount from the receivers. The base of the action cam that it was designed for is narrow and short and the tabs don't interfere with it. If you ground the tabs down it should work but I wouldn't expect it to handle too many g's. I don't think it was designed to handle something with much more mass than the action cam it was made for.

Sort of. You can position it so that the mount would be connected to the underside of an overhang, but the camera would be 90 degrees off. The camera can rotate around the base 360 degrees, and then the camera can tilt maybe 60 degrees ,so it probably will do what you want in some form or another. This isn't a big deal - I think there's a software option to spin the image, and most security video recorders have the ability to do that as well. But you'll "lose" (or gain, depending on what you are pointed at) a few pixels because the rectangle of view will be 90 degrees out of phase. So I'd say "Yes, you can" with a minor caveat.

Yes it can very well be used with camcorders. But this does not have a panning handle which for me is a must have while I am making videos.

The connection fits all my cameras and it is flexible - twist it, angle it, swivel it - it is only 7 1/2 inches tall. It suited my needs to produce fun pictures at an angle.

No. And it doesn't fit together like it should. Boards were warped, and you have to be careful with the cam locks...they break easily and there are no extras.

It has a standard 1/4 inch screw which fits in most devices. The bottom of the screw has a 'female' thread for another 1/4 inch screw so you wont desperately need another screw for something small like a handheld camcorder especially if you won't be loading the bracket with really heavy items. I use the word 'desperately' because the bracket tends to pivot around that one point and get lose as you use it. Thus, a set up where you can use a second screw to keep it from pivoting would be ideal.

It has a dedicated thumb turn only. It is good for camera use but may not meet your needs for video. You might want to check out Manfrotto - they just came out with a compact series w/different heads one of which has handles.

To me, it works ONLY for point and shoot. It is not strong enough to hold up a streamlines camcorder.

It IS possible to spin 360. However it's not really designed to spin even though you can. You really have to pay attention to the screw securing the two pieces together because it can get lose because of the spinning. Also it's not the smoothest spin but it's still a usable camera move.

It pans from the base so the resulting footage may not be the same as what you would expect from a tripod. There may be a slight back/front/side to side swing, depending on your body movement. For me, that would seem natural and that's a good thing.

Max weight? I'm not sure but it is strong. It shoukd hold yours easily. I use a cannon camcorder and its no problem. Tighen the 3 legs on bottom real tight and it should hold almost any camera.

Yes the mounting screw is standard and should fit most cameras and camcorder the has the mounting hole on the bottom

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