Can it be mounted off-camera?

Yes I placed it on the plastic stand that comes with the unit and took a shot (with my built-in flash turned on) facing away from the unit and it worked. I think the unit can pick up the flash from the camera as light bounces off walls which will fire the off camera flash.

Yes, I do so all the time. In fact, I have not had much luck figuring out using this flash on camera and getting the control over exposure I need. However, I pound on it all night long off camera using Nikon's AWL to control it in TTL mode and sometimes manual mode. It's well worth the money unless it's your first and only flash then I suggest getting a Nikon flash or something else like a Phottix maybe although I have not tested one of those they seem well respected by the brand worshippers who prefer the camera brand :) I have not tested the flash responding to a Canon camera but when am around a Canon user I will give it a try. I leave it in cn mode (Canon and Nikon) and it works just fine as a remote flash.

Yes, it is probably more useful as a slave light than as a main flash. Honestly I thought it was a piece of junk and sold it to someone for 50 bucks, he was not happy with it and wanted to return it to me. It really just does not work well with the more advanced Nikons. It does not seem to react as fast as the camera.

Yes. But you'd need to have either a tripod or light stand adapter. The shoe itself is plastic so I'm hesitant to try anything too crazy with my angles/direction. But...the iTTL works fairly well if you don't want to control the flash manually (personally I find you get much better results).

Yes you can, there is built in web server but i strongly advise you get some software and set up external to camera.

Yes, it does not have to be mounted in the hot shoe. You can have it plugged in and sitting on the side of the camera

It can, but I cannot imagine under what circumstances you would use it off the lens. It is designed specifically for close-up work, and is not a substitute for a normal flash accessory.

No. It is sold in this format to be mounted internally. You would have to purchase an enclosure and cable to make it an external accessory.

It can be mounted sticking straight up as seen in the product image, but the on-screen date-time etc. information printed on the video will be upside down. Also the device only rotates between two points at about 90 degrees so there's that to consider.

Yes, it can. I can't test it on any of my cameras because their tripod mounts are all on the bottom.

No. You will need to mount a flash on the camera for that. But it does have a pc port for triggering flashes off camera.

Sure can. Has the standard 1/4 x 20 threaded hole on the bottom. I mount mine regularly. In fact the only time I remove it from the camera is to remove some weight when mounting to a flycam. My arms get tired too quickly.

No you can't. Camera is static. You can add additional equipment down the road like a gimbal to get it to do what you want. That's what I did.
1949783
yes you can as long it (the tripod) is wrapped around a pole or object. the camera cannot be vertical with the tripod standing.

I bought two of these cameras, and yes you can mount them from a ceiling or some type of overhang. They look absolutely like the real thing!

Yes it can, you have to go through the menu that is on the camera itself. It's part of the setup menu.

I have no idea,I would say not.I bought this only as a back camera and never used it.

It does not come with a specific mount for that but I am sure you could come up with something. As much as I would like to do that myself I would worry that my dog could get hung up on something even though the camera is small enough.

Absolutely. It can be mounted on a tripod, takes a great HD image and the sound pick up is very good.

with the correct mounts, yes it can. the remote control makes it easy to start recording when you want.
