International has low angle viewfinder for pros

A professional viewfinder for shooting low angles is available from International Supplies, Inglewood, Calif., for both photographers and videographers. Made by Varavon, this device attaches to the camera and with the use of two built-in angled mirrors, allows users to simply look down into the viewfinder to see the shot.

The Pro Finder basically works like a medium format Hasselblad or Mamiya RZ67, says the company, but with parralax correction.

The Pro Finder features a 3x zoom so users can magnify their shots to make sure they are in focus, diopter correction, and a loupe. When not being used for low angle photo and video capture, the device can be used as a regular viewfinder or transformed into a hood. Use of the finder also prevents condensation from building up on lenses.

It works with the Canon 5D Mark II, 7D and Rebel T2i cameras.
