What's the trick for mounting the camera? I need to remove the housing to screw the camera to ceiling. How do I remove the housing?

It screws off counterclockwise at the base. There should be instructions in the box. I have (8) of these - I think - out of 24 cameras. They are the best of my cameras.

hold the base (the thin ring on the back of the housing) and unscrew the larger ring from the base. Just take care that the camera doesn't fall out once it gets loose.

How does the camera attach to this-is it the screw mount, so perhaps other cameras can use it?

Yes, it can be mounted on the ceiling but you will not be able to point it everywhere as you can if you put it on a wall. The camera will rotate and also swivels up and down but mounted on a ceiling, the base will get in the way of some directions. I would try to find a wall location if at all possible so that it can be mounted as in the photos. If that is not an option, you may want to look at one of the round cameras that are designed to be mounted on the ceiling. I just did a quick check on Amazon and there are several available. Good luck in your search.

It's very simple. Using the photo of the VH-R2 provided here, you will notice a small lever on the right side of the unit pictured. Using the index finger and thumb of your right hand, grasp and then pinch together the two ends of that lever and then move them in a horizontal direction away from you. By this action the two piece lever will then unlock and release the top RP-20 mounting plate which you will also notice pops up slightly. It can then easily be removed from the VH-R2. I recently purchased this top piece to mount on my Oben ACM-1400 mono-pod which came with a flat non-articulating head. The VH-R2 screws directly on to the original mount head. No tools required. I use it to better stabilize my video camera when taking telephoto shots on the run.

The camera comes in 3 parts, the nut, the bezel and the camera. The way to mount it is to drill a hole the size of the bezel, put the nut on one end of the wall, screw the bezel into the nut, then insert the camera.

My camera is ceiling mounted. Works great. Did have some difficulty with a ceiling mount. Had to modify the one I purchased. Just make sure you check your screen size with distance. Here is a link to help estimate the distance from screen to projector. http://www.projectorcentral.com/Acer-H6510BD-projection-calculator-pro.htm

You have to find the connector with the correct angle it is a screw mount and you can usually get a grab bag of different connector mounts for cheap. There is a plate on the chest harness that attaches to the plate on the camera you have mounted with the screw. The plates snap in place.

Hi Denise, I bought this a couple of months ago and really like it. But to answer your question, the round knob on top unscrews and you screw your camara to it.

You have to unscrew the top half of the dome from the base. There are three parts: the base, domed top and the camera body. The domed top may be a little hard to unscrew.

Sure, there have a hole in the top of the camera, so you can install the bracket on the top of the camera to ceiling, thanks.

There is a removable plate on the top of the ball head (remove by pressing the side button). This plate should mount on any standard camera with the screw that extends through the mounting plate. Once mounted to the camera, the camera will slide and lock into position on top of the ball head. If the screw does not fit into the camera, either the camera is defective/non-standard or the mounting plate could have some sort of thread defect. I had no such issues with my purchase.

Take the complete unit to your local hardware store and they will have the correct screw size for the unit, This would be the easiest way to solve the problem. Good luck with this unit. It works very well on my cameras as it will on yours.

Either works... You can remove it completely and hold it separately or you can leave it snapped and it hangs below the camera while taking your shot. Occasionally I leave it off if I'm just holding the camera by the strap (sometimes a little more convenient without it completely). Otherwise if I'm going to throw the camera in my purse and don't want it to bang around I will leave it on and just open the top when I'm ready to use.

The top unscrews from the base. Then mount the base making sure the wire is run the way you need it to go. Put camera ball back in and screw top back on. Adjust view and the finish tighting the top. Took me a while to figure it out too.

Hi Charles,I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with the Dash Cam release. It is a very tight fitting mechanism, so I can understand your dilemma. Releasing the camera from the mount just takes a little practice. As you know, the camera snaps into place when fitted into the mount. Therefore, it does take a little bit of force to "un-snap" the camera from the mount. Just make sure to squeeze the little lever that is on the mount closest to the camera before sliding the camera off of the mount. This will release a lot of the tension and give you the ability to more easily "un-snap" the camera from the mount.I hope this information is helpful. Thanks again for contacting us!

Yes and yes. Once mounted, loosen the anchor screw that bonds the camera ball to the base, and adjust the camera ball freely. I love these cameras, the quality is fantastic. I own 3.
