@chauncy I mean mounting the camera horizontally at 90 degrees on the quick release plate. E.G. In this photo: http://bit.ly/Ap1aht the camera lens would face the vertical pan knob. Then the movement woud be exactly as you described it.

@longjohn silver. No you can't mount a camera at 90degrees, it's a two way head. You can't really get a slider horizonal movement. You can, with the legs on the ground, lean the monopod above the ball joint to the side and get a horizontal movement that way. It will be a little diagonal movement really, since your height will drop as well depending on the angle.
The movement will not be slider smooth. With practice you can make it pretty smooth.
Hi, a noob question...
Is it possible mounting the camera at 90° on the attachment plate?
Would be possible obtaining a lateral movement, something like a slider? I mean maintaining the camera horizontal while moving the monopod on his legs from left to right while pointing the subject.
I hope you understand what I'm meaning :)
