Abstract
An adjustable photographic device includes a light transmission element for allowing light from an object to be photographed to pass therethrough, and light sources positioned around the periphery of the light transmission element for introducing light into the periphery of the light transmission element. This light introduced into the periphery of the light transmission element is internally reflected in the light transmission element causing the contrast of the photographed image to be controlled or modified without effecting the resolution thereof.
