Abstract
An omni-positional camera mount for the photographing of small objects (24). The mount has a support (4) to hold an object to be photographed. A first frame (9) is pivotally mounted to the support such that the first frame can pivot on a first pivot axis (12). A second frame (15) is mounted to the first frame (9) such that the second frame can pivot on a second pivot axis (18) which is at right angles to and passing through the first pivot axis. A camera stage is on the second frame. The support (4) can include a turntable and a mounting post. The turntable (4) rotates on a axis which passes through the meeting point (20) of the first and second axes.
