ABSTRACT:
A camera attachment is configured, adapted and/or operative to compress a pliant object or subject for allowing photographing of the object therethrough by the camera to which the camera attachment is coupled. The camera attachment allows the user to apply a variable compressive force to an object to be photographed through application of a compressive force on the camera. The variable compressive force applied by the user on the camera is translated to a compression portion of the camera attachment and onto the object. The compression portion includes a compression plate that is composed of a material suitable for the functions and/or features described herein and particularly of a material having light characteristics that range from minimally opaque to entirely translucent for photographing the object it is compressing. Additionally, the overall length of the camera attachment is variable through adjustable length support structures such that the distance between the camera lens and the compression plate may be changed. The lens-to-compression plate distance is thus variable, ranging from a minimum lens-to-plate distance to a maximum lens-to-plate distance. These parameters are controlled by size of the camera attachment. The adjustable length support structures of the camera attachment are independently adjustable and independently releasably fixable in length. Also, one or more support structure may carry representations and/or markings for providing one or more of a scale, reading, position and/or camera parameter and/or setting.
