Context: A camera turn-over or image rotation may be obtained with a dove prism. A dove prism is a relatively long, rectangular block of glass with its two ends sloping toward each other. This prism has a useful property. If you photograph through the prism and rotate it around its longitudinal axis, the image will rotate through an angle twice that of the prism's rotation.
