can it tilt for overhead shots?

It tilts but I don't think a full 90 degrees. It's really cheap, ours broke when we first put the phone in it. I would buy a better one if I was you. Basically a waste of money

We'll not really you will have to put something heavy behind it so it won't fall

Yes you can tilt it, it has a ball joint and any standard light stand will work.

Yes, you can. I have my camera mounted on ceiling and still pan/tilt without problems.

I use mine for bow hunting so the tilt is a nice feature from a tree stand. I only have used the tilt model so I can not give you an honest answer. I suspect that like low line optics some individual units are better than others.

Yes, this head can tilt directly up, 90 degrees. You may have to shift the handles to give enough room.

Yes, the tilt can be adjusted incrementally from not-quite-vertical to horizontal (and beyond).

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

Yes. There's a handle underneath that you can loosen and angle slightly sideways. It's more used if you're shooting on an unlevel surface, and need to level the head.

Yes it can. If mounted normally it can be tilted from facing up and horizontally flat to facing down and horizontally flat.

Yes. I angled my mount upwards to shoot video but it vibrates too much to enjoy the video afterwards. That was mountain biking though without full suspension.

Yes you can, but there are limits to how far back it can tilt without tipping over. I find the "good" angle (not tipping) good for me.

No, I had tried to put my D800 on, it tilt. You cannot use it for a real slr

You can go into setting and get the camera to tilt almost stright down but not all the way. However with wide angle lens it has it sees directly under it very well.

The level of tilt is adjustable. I think it would work for you purposes. My wife likes it so much she wants me to get another one.

Yes. the stand has a swivel neck which allows you to turn the camera to any direction of your choice even if it is mounted vertically overhead

Yes, you can tilt head up and down but better, you have arrows on the screen to move up, down, right, left, close ups, or move away from your object. I cannot answer the digital still photo question, I've not tried that function.

Yes it does tilt, very happy with it. I use it for video surveillance system monitor.
