The image can rotate but you can not record with the image facing down. The screen is always facing up.

Hi, no it can record only in time lapse mode, means speeding up the motion, not slowing down.

Mechanically it can mount either way, but I don't see anyway to flip the video using the camera settings. I use it with Zoneminder, which can flip the video upside down.

You can always turn the camera ball either clockwise or counterclockwise but is kinda hard specially if the camera is hot (plugged) try to use some rubber cloth or gloves to make it spin, if is not posible unplug the camera and wait until is cool and turn it. In my case I used a damped cloth.

I found that (with you facing the screen) the top left button, if you hold it down for a few seconds it will turn off the screen and keep recording. If you hold it again for a few seconds it will turn the screen back on.

if you videotape vertically the video will also be vertical, as it is an HD device and therefore its native aspect ratio is a 16:9 rectangle. it does not change the orientation of the video later on (like a phone does.)

I have not seen an option to automatically re-orient. In the settings there is an option to specify recording "upside down" but no on it's side.

I used this to film a school play. I just set it up with camera facing stage. I pushed record. I do not understand why you would need to flip it over.

Camera is on top side of device, thus a different angle. Also, this device can shut off its screen making it more covert. Be sure to get one which has audio enabled

No I didn't record, but it worked rather well. If you need to rotate for different views you will want to affix it ti a small pipe or dowel something to give you control other than just a straight feed. 1/2 inch pvc with a 45 angle worked great for me. Hope this helps.

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.

You can rotate it 180 degrees. And No you can't close the screen, however, you can't close the screen on higher end DSLR's either so I figured closing the screen isn't a big deal.

Yes, there is a mode which you can record when there is movement. No movement, it would stop recording.

There is a screen rotation button above the power button on the lower right edge of the screen. It rotates in 90 degree intervals. Have you tried that?

yes the screen will physically rotate, whether the data displays in that format depends on your software configuration.

No it can't be reversed. You would have to use this with a reversing monitor to do what you want. This is a very basic camera.

During playback, yes It's a soft botton on the screen. During recording, you simply yse the stop/start recording
