This may seem like an odd question, but it's been on my mind for a
long time.
How would you shoot something at a complete 90 degree angle, in a
"bird's eye view", meaning completely overhead?
I mean something quite simple, like a map, a table setting, a sink
where someone is washing their hands.
I can't figure out a reasonable way to have the camera stabilized
completely "overhead" -- just a couple feet above the subject so I
have a nice clean frame of the object with no "tilt" to it.
If you put a tripod near it and tilt it down it doesn't look like what
I am going for.
The only idea I have now is to take a monopod, put the camera on it,
and stabilize the monopod on a ladder step by clamping the monopod to
the ladder. It might work, but it's quite a cowboy solution.
Is there some kind of device that would let me get this kind of shot?
