Yeah. It's a little gizmo that goes between the camera and the tripod
head, and with a flip you can raise the camera so that the taking
lens' axis is now where the viewing lens' axis used to be while you
where composing. Only for tripod use, but it works well and is quite
slick. Here you can put on any closeup lenses (same power top and
bottom) and have no parallax issues. Doesn't work for anything
moving, of course.
