Abstract

PURPOSE:To photograph the contents of a video while videoizing by permitting a movable mirror to selectively switch an optical axis between the CCD and photographic film. CONSTITUTION:The movable mirror 8 is provided in the midst of a lens 6, the CCD 1, and shutter blind 4. By turning the movable mirror 8 in a direction shown by an arrow A' or A, a video is reflected or advanced so as to form an image selectively on the CCD 1 or the photographic film 11. Therefore, when the movable mirror 8 is turned in the direction shown by the arrow A, and the shutter blind 4 is actuated, the contents of one frame can be photographed in the course of videoizing; when the movable mirror 8 is returned by turning it in the direction shown by the arrow A', videoizing can be contin ued. Thus, photographing can be performed during videoizing, by confirming its contents with a finder 10.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a camera that integrates a video camera and a photo camera, and has the object of being able to take pictures while taking a video.
This is an amnesty.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, cameras have been configured as separate video cameras and photo cameras, and when taking a photo of the content of a video shoot, the signal received via a CCD is played back in the viewfinder and then taken on the photo camera. Measures were being taken.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, the above method requires both a video camera and a photo camera, and the video obtained by reproducing the signal received via the CCD is recorded on film.
It had the following drawbacks.

In other words, if you try to continue shooting with a video camera or photo camera without checking the images in real time, the weight of the equipment will make it difficult to move, and the images reproduced from the signals received through the COD will be indirect. This had the disadvantage that the image became unclear.

The present invention aims to eliminate such drawbacks by integrating a video camera and a photo camera, thereby reducing the amount of equipment required and allowing the photographer to move around more easily. The purpose is to provide

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention integrates a video camera and a photo camera.

That is, a shutter base 4 and a film mounting section 5 for a photographic camera are provided so that a signal received by the CCD 1 can be inputted to a video circuit 2 and a photograph can be taken by a video camera to be recorded, and a focal length H's: adjustment. At the rear of the lens 6, a movable mirror 8 for selectively changing the optical axis 7f is provided.

[Effect]

According to the present invention, by operating the movable roller 8, the image can be selectively connected to the CCD 1 or the film mounting section 5.

The CCDI converts the image whose focus has been adjusted by the lens 6 into an electrical signal, inputs it to the image circuit 2, records it on a video tape 9, and outputs it to the finder 10 for real-time playback. Via CcD1ii lens 6 (
- positioned to be imaged. The shutter base 4 and film mounting section 5 for a photographic camera are similarly provided at positions where images are formed through the lens 6. A movable mirror 8 is provided between the lens 6, the CCDI and the shutter base 4, and is activated to reflect the image and move the image straight ahead, selectively connecting it to the CCD 1 or the photographic film 11. It's something that makes you think.

Therefore, the movable mirror 8 and the shutter base 4 are interlocked 1.
It is also possible to operate the camera manually, and during video shooting, it is possible to take pictures while checking with the finder 10.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in detail based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an embodiment of the camera of the present invention.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a CCD, which is also called an electronic eye, which receives an image and converts it into an electric signal, and the image which is focused by a lens 6 is reflected on the surface of a movable mirror 8 to form an image.

In addition to visually displaying the video signal input to the video circuit 2 through the finder 10Fi CCD 1, the video tape 9
It plays back the information input into the camera, and also displays the elapsed time and operation status.The video camera is composed of a lens 6, a camera 8, and a CCI I/C.

A photographic film 11, such as a positive type film, is inserted into the film mounting section 5, and an image is formed into a lens 6 to be focused at l.

A 1if111 mirror 8 and a shutter base 4 are provided between the lens 6 and the film loading section 5, and when taking a photograph, the movable mirror 8 is rotated in the direction of arrow A.
The bending of the optical axis 7 is eliminated, and the image is transmitted straight to the photographic film 11 from the lens 6. Therefore, by rotating the movable Mi-8 in the direction of the arrow and activating the shutter base 4, it is possible to take a picture of one frame during video shooting.
Further, by returning the movable unit 8 by rotating it in the direction of the arrow, video shooting can be continued. Of course, it is also possible to keep the movable mirror 8f rotated in the direction of arrow A and use it only for photographing.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing another embodiment of the camera of the present invention.

In FIG. 2, the shutter base 4, film mounting section 5
The photographic film 11 is disposed at a position where the optical axis 7 is reflected and bent by the movable mirror 8 and input, and the CCDI is disposed at a position where the optical axis 7 moves straight. When projecting a video, the movable mirror 2-8 is rotated in the direction of arrow A, and the image transmitted through the lens 6 travels straight, forms an image on the CCD 1, and is output to the image circuit 2. In addition, when taking a photograph while taking a video, the movable mirror 8 is rotated in the direction of the arrow A' and the shutter curtain 4tl- is actuated at the same time, so that the image is shifted from the surface of the movable mirror 8. It is photographed bent completely. Further, by rotating the movable mirror 8 in the direction of arrow A, video recording can be continued.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, a video camera and a photographic camera are integrated, and the optical axis 7 is controlled by the movable mirror 8 provided inside.
can be selectively switched to the CCD 1 or photographic film 11 side, so that the contents of the video can be recorded as photographs while being photographed. - Therefore, by using a photographic film 11 that can be used in real time, such as a Polaroid type film, the contents of the video shoot can be recorded as they are, and it is possible to organize the pictures while continuing the shooting. In addition, by integrating a video camera and a photo camera, you can now use just one camera instead of the traditional method of holding two or more cameras, which has the effect of making your movements easier during busy filming sessions. .
