Abstract
Over the decade since the first prototype Snorkel camera system was developed, its potentialities have been expanded and redefined several times. Unusual versatility and freedom of movement are made possible by shooting vertically downward through an optical relay tube which has a small mirror positioned at an angle below the objective lens. Where initially only 16mm and 35mm cameras were used with this system, videotape and electronic cameras may now be used also. After concentrating in the early years on films of architectural models, the direction and emphasis of the system's developments have greatly changed through its use in TV commercial production and its work with actors. Directors and actors can almost completely ignore the mass of the camera when the Snorkel is used. Likely directions of future developments are considered.
