When the camera is attached does this crane have the ability to adjust camera angle up or downwhile the crane is stationary?

Yes, and no. You can preset the vertical pitch so the camera is either horizontal, or pointing at an angle up or down. However, it is static, meaning you can't shift this position while tilting the jib. Theoretically, you could loosen one of the tube clasps towards the end of the camera and push it in/out to change the pitch, but I doubt it would be smooth enough to use in a reliable fashion. For a feature like this, you will need to invest if a more expensive "pro" jib. Even without that feature, this jib is hard to beat for the price.

if you attached it to a video head you can tilt the head and it will angle the camera up or down.

You will only be able to tilt our pan camera angle if you attach a video head to crane. That also mean you will operate camera from the camera end of the crane in order to tilt or pan. Not from the boom arm end. It does not mean it's wrong. It's just a different way. Production class cranes or jobs can work either way.

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 set the camera tilt angle by hand before flying. I cut off and filed off the tilt limiters for more look up and look down angles. Better look down angle now, but I am abusing the video cable. It may break eventually. I put the plastic shell on backwards and tilt the camera up for better look forward.

The camera is in a fixed position. Pointing froward with a slight downward tilt. It can't be adjusted it is fixed.

It's stationary (yes, that's a drawback for me because I am short and need a tilt screen to shoot pictures in a crowd. My husband is over 6 feet tall, so he doesn't have that issue!)

The head on the tripod is fully capable of a side tilt. This is a heavy duty tripod. I have used mine with a small jib/crane as well as a slider for video, and it is rock solid and steady.

It is stationary. Camera takes really nice pictures. Zoom is fantastic. Took some pics at full zoom 29 rows up at a pro football stadium and it looks like I was right behind the players. Kept its focus and used correct exposure.

Yes, but slightly hunched over. I'm 6'3" and used it standing with no problems. Its legs are adjustable enough to adjust to alot of different heights, they don't lock at a fixed angle like camera tripods do.

It does not swivel, but it does tilt up and down. I believe you can take still photos with the packaged software.

The camera is easily tilted. I have not had any problems adjusting to the right angle for viewing.

No. Both the front-viewing and bottom-viewing cameras are stationary. I guide the drone around to change what the camera sees.

It is already horizontal in the picture. When you release the adjustment on the side then you can tilt the camera vertically. I guess they say both because once the camera is vertical, then you can tilt it back horizontal.

No need to do it electronically. The mounts gimbal in 60 degree cone and can rotate 360 degrees. You'll find a physical way to ensure the camera is right side up.

It should record upright or lying down. I have only recorded while holding it but I had it both up and angled while in my hands.

Do you mean horizontally? The short answer is "yes". It's not a strict 90 degree angle because the flex is not that flexible, but you can attach it horizontally and flex the camera vertically to be level. If you mean, can you attach it straight down vertically, and flex it 180 degrees for the camera to be upright, the answer, again, is "yes". As mentioned in other reports, the flex on this thing is very tight and requires two hands to bend, but it will bend. I had it attached to the underside of a slanted 2x4 and twisted it upwards to be upright and level. I was impressed.

Yes. It allows tilt up & down as well as swivel side to side. I am happy with my purchase. It is secure with a very heavy DSLR attached.Bet of luck~

No, it doesn't angle that far down. Not a great tripod. Works fine for me - using it primarily to record musical practice sessions on my phone, but it is very lightweight and I'm not sure how good it would be for more intense use.

It will move because it is designed to be balanced with the camera attached. Removing the camera creates an imbalance, and the motors on the gimbal are constantly trying to keep the gimbal in balance.
