can the camera be adjusted in flight like to point straight down or behind you

in flight... no. The gimbal that comes with it is fixed. You can make some adjustments with it while it is still on the ground. Unless you wanna spend some serious bucks, this will have to do. However, there are motorized gimbals out there that can be adjusted in flight. Those require a $$$ remote to operate and it's also best if you get a $$$ FPV system so you can see where you are pointing it at.

Yes as long as you have a way to fly up there and adjust it manually. Lol No, this dji doesn't have an automated camera rig. Buy the new version or buy a rig.

Yes you can adjust the camera but I should let you know, I wouldn't buy this product again. It is hard to control, the batteries don't last long and I believe there are much better quadcopters out there. Better to spend your hard earned cash on a quality product.

Not in a fluid way for shooting. You can adjust the lower arm and that would allow the camera mount to tilt but again not as a fluid movement.

Yes you can point it straight at you but not pointed down. It also folds flat for easy packing.

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.

Yes, you can. Of course there is a limit to the swivel, but placing the camera correctly, you ought not to have a problem in pointing it to a specific area.

Yes it swivels so you can adjust it up/down, left/right. Everyone who comes to our property thinks this camera is real.

Camera just points down. But for $66 you can't beat this little quad. When you fly slowly it takes good video. But once on pro mode the angle the quad flies you are facing straight to the ground. Check out videos on YouTube for this model. You will get a better idea. Enjoy!!

Yes!! Just not sure how or where to set one up without effecting the flight characteristics.

It will if you have your camera level or pointed up slightly. Also if you make any aggressive movements, as the gimble will keep the camera level and either the landing gear and or props will show up. I fly FPV through my GoPro so can see this and can tilt the camera down slightly via the gimble and correct the problem. Also at this setting fly gently no aggressive manoeuvres and you should be ok. Try some test shots, it's the best way to see what works best for you.....Jim H.

no. However you can only tilt the camera up and down while setting it up but not remotely.

The camera platform has many holes in order to position your camera exactly where you want it, so the answer is yes.

Is there a camera with similar characteristics but with the ability to be controlled by a joystick? Thanks.

No, only the legs can be adjusted. It's a bit small, so the camera is not on eye level. Also, the mechanism is no longer very smooth and it clicks. It's a few years old, but I hardly use it. I thought it would be smooth for the life. It makes panning difficult without a jerk effect.

It just points straight out. The camera, however, is tilted at a lower angle so that when the drone is parallel to the horizon, you can see downward either way.

Yes, it uses the snap in mount and can be pointed toward you or away from you on either the upper or lower mount. If you have two cameras you can have one pointing toward you and one pointing away from you.

Yes, it clips on easily, has a lens that can be adjusted to point straight ahead or down (though not straight down), and connects by a wire on the copter/drone. Also, if the little red/green camera light does not come on when you activate it on the remote, you probably forgot to plug the wire in or did not insert the micro sd chip.
