Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a continuous shooting camera in which a plurality of shots are taken at short time intervals by one release operation, and continuous photographs are taken on each of the divided shooting screens. Is.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When a moving subject is sequentially photographed with a time lag, it is possible to obtain a photographic image in which the movement is stopped for each photographing. Therefore, for example, in sports or the like, the form at each moment can be observed as a still image, which is very convenient.

With such a continuous shooting camera, one full-size (24 × 36 mm) screen of 35 mm film is divided into four, and continuous four frames are arranged in a "T" shape for shooting.
One of continuous shooting and panorama size (13 x 36 mm)
There is one in which four frames are photographed on the screen, and two consecutive frames are photographed to obtain eight consecutive shots.

[0004]

However, in the former continuous shooting camera, since successive frames are arranged and printed in a "ta" shape, it is difficult to understand the time sequence of continuous shooting frames. Since the number of frames that can be continuously shot at one time is small, it is not convenient to observe a series of movements in detail. Also, with the latter continuous shooting camera, the number of continuous shooting frames is large, but since eight continuous frames become two print photos of four frames each, it is inconvenient when viewing the print photos and the print photos There was a problem that it was troublesome when organizing. When a normal 35 mm film full-size one screen is divided and a large number of continuous shooting frames are photographed into an L size print photograph corresponding to the full size, one frame size becomes small. , It's not convenient to appreciate.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is easy to understand the temporal order of a large number of consecutively shot frames on one screen, and each of the consecutively shot frames is sufficient when printed as a photograph. It is an object to provide a continuous shooting camera having a size.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention divides one screen of a wide vision size having an aspect ratio of 9:16 into two in the short side direction and divides each of the two divided columns. An imaging optical system is provided that sequentially exposes each frame while sequentially selecting a plurality of frames divided into three or more in the long side direction. 35mm film wide vision size 1
It is possible to obtain each continuous shooting frame with a sufficient size on the screen. Further, when the number of divisions in the long side direction is 4, there is a good balance between the large number of continuous shooting frames and the size of each continuous shooting frame in a printed photograph.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring to FIG. 2 showing the appearance of a continuous shooting camera embodying the present invention, eight photographing lenses 2a to 2h are arranged on the front surface of a camera body 1 in rows of four, and exposed. There is. Each optical axis is parallel. A finder 3 is provided on the front surface of the camera body 1. The field of view of the finder 3 coincides with the photographing range of each of the photographing lenses 2a to 2h. A release button 4 for starting continuous shooting is provided on the top surface of the camera body 1.
Is provided. By pressing the release button 4, continuous continuous frames are photographed.

As shown in FIG. 1 showing the main internal structure of the camera body 1, a continuous shooting shutter unit 5 including photographing lenses 2a to 2h and an exposure frame unit 6 are incorporated. A 35 mm film 8 pulled out from the cartridge 7 is arranged behind the exposure frame unit 6 (on the rear side of the camera body 2), and the area of the screen of the film 8 faces the exposure frame unit 6. It is like this.

The shutter unit 5 has a button 9 exposed at the left shoulder portion. This button 9 is the release button 4
Is pressed downward in conjunction with pressing. The shutter unit 5 has a diaphragm corresponding to each of the taking lenses 2a to 2h and a shutter mechanism for continuous shooting.
The shutter mechanism operates when the button 9 is pressed, and sequentially opens and closes one shutter provided at each optical path from the taking lenses 2a to 2h at regular intervals.

The exposure frame unit 6 includes eight exposure frames 6a to 6a, each of which is divided by a partition wall in the film feeding direction.
Four 6h are formed in upper and lower two stages. Exposure frame 6a
To exposure frame 6d, and from exposure frame 6e to exposure frame 6h
The horizontal length of up to 35 mm film has a wide vision size (20.
It is almost the same as the length of one screen (8 × 36 mm). The vertical length of each of the exposure frames 6a to 6h is about half the vertical length of the wide vision size screen.
When exposure is performed through a to 6h, as shown in FIG.
Eight continuous shooting frames 11a to 11h are divided into two upper and lower four frames for each wide vision size screen, which is vertically shorter than the screen 10 for one full screen size (24 × 36 mm) of 5 mm film. Be exposed.

The film 8 is wound up by the take-up spool 12 in the film winding chamber of the continuous shooting camera rotating counterclockwise, and pulled out from the cartridge 7 loaded in the cartridge chamber of the continuous shooting camera. A motor 13 is built in the continuous shooting camera, and its driving force is transmitted to the film feeding mechanism 14. The film feeding mechanism 14 drives the take-up spool 12 via the gear 12a at the time of film winding, and at the time of film rewinding, the spool 7a rotatably provided on the cartridge 7 via the gear 15a.
The rewinding fork 15 engaged with is driven. Film 8
After the film feeding mechanism 14 completes the continuous shooting of eight frames on one screen, the film is wound up on the take-up spool 12 and the area of the next one screen faces the exposure frame unit 6. At the time of winding the film, the driving force of the motor 13 is transmitted to the shutter unit 5 via the film feeding mechanism 14 to perform the shutter charge.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described. After the film 8 is loaded into the continuous shooting camera, the film 8 is pulled out from the cartridge 7 and wound up on the take-up spool 12, so that the first one-screen area faces the exposure frame 6. When the release button 4 is pressed, the button 9 of the shutter unit 5 is pressed in conjunction with this, and the shutter mechanism starts operating. First, the shutter is opened and closed behind the taking lens 2a, and the first frame of the continuous shooting frame 11a of the film 8 is exposed. After a certain period of time, the shutter is opened and closed behind the taking lens 2b to expose the second frame of the continuous shooting frame 11b. Similarly, the shutters behind the photographing lenses 2c to 2h are sequentially opened and closed to sequentially expose the third frame to the eighth frame on the continuous frames 11c to 11h. The exposure from the first frame to the eighth frame is performed within a short time of, for example, about 1 second.

When the exposure of the continuous frames 11a to 11h is completed, the motor 13 is driven and the take-up spool 12 is rotated counterclockwise via the film feeding mechanism 14. As a result, the film 8 is wound up on the take-up spool 12 and the next one screen area is set behind the exposure frame unit 6, and the shutter unit 5 is shutter charged to enter the next shooting standby state.

Continuous shooting frames 11a of the film 8 photographed
In 11h, as shown in FIG. 3, for example, the operation from the start of the golf swing to the follow-through is exposed at regular intervals to form a latent image.
Since the continuous shooting frames 11a to 11h are performed through the exposure frame unit 6, the continuous shooting frames 11a to 11h are exposed in a wide vision size region vertically shorter than the 35 mm full size screen 10. The continuous shooting frames 11a to 11h are respectively exposed to the exposure frames 6a to 6h.
The wide vision size is vertically divided into two rows, and each of the upper and lower rows is exposed to a size divided into four.

The film 8 photographed as described above
After being developed, is printed on a widespread wide-vision size print photograph (89 × 158 mm). From the film shown in FIG. 3, the print photograph shown in FIG. 4 is obtained. The continuous shooting frames 11a to 11h are stretched and printed on one wide-vision size print photograph, and the individual continuous shooting frames are printed in a sufficient size. Further, in this print photograph, the continuous shooting frames are arranged side by side with the passage of time, which is advantageous in terms of reproducibility of the continuous shooting scene. In addition, between the exposure unit 6 and the film 8,
Since the gap is provided, it is possible to prevent the exposures of the end portions of the adjacent continuous shooting frames from overlapping each other and prevent a black frame (unexposed) between the continuous shooting frames during printing. That is, each continuous shooting frame 1
When printing is performed by double exposure between 1a to 11h, this portion becomes whitish, and a preferable continuous shooting photograph can be obtained.

In the embodiment described above, 8 frames are continuously shot in a wide vision size by placing 4 frames of continuous shooting frames in 4 stages vertically, but 3 frames of 3 frames are continuously shot in a wide vision size. It may be a step. You can shoot 6 frames on one screen, making it easy to understand the time sequence,
It is possible to make each continuous shooting frame large enough.

[0017]

As described above, according to the present invention, one screen having a wide vision size with an aspect ratio of 9:16 is divided into two in the short side direction, and each divided line is divided into two in the long side direction. Since multiple shooting frames are divided into 3 or more in sequence, and continuous shooting photographs are taken by the shooting optical system that sequentially exposes each selected frame, multiple continuous shooting frames are displayed on one screen. Even if you take a picture, each of the continuous shooting frames will have a sufficient size when you make a printed picture, making it easier to understand the temporal order. Further, since the image is divided into four in the long side direction, there is a good balance between the large number of continuous shooting frames and the size of each continuous shooting frame in a print photograph.
