Anyone know if its possible to rotate the lens? I want to put this in my back window and it will be much easier for me and a lot less visible if I can lay it flat instead of it being vertical. However, when it lays flat the image is recorded sideways. The video flip option seems to only rotate the date and time stamp 180 degrees, right? I removed the outer ring from the lens and it seems the lens mount is threaded but I didn't try to turn it. I didn't know if that was for focus or not. Didn't want to mess anything up. Any guidance would be great.
 
the thread is for focus, even if you took the lens off and rotated it 90 degrees it would remain the same, without software manipulation it's the position of the sensor not the lens that determines the outcome

there are some playback software products I've seen in the past that had an option to rotate 90 degrees but not sure if this would work for you
