Abstract

PURPOSE: An apparatus and a method for using a general camera as a digital camera are provided to convert a general camera as a digital camera by mounting a simple device in the shape of a film instead of a film. CONSTITUTION: An apparatus for using a general camera as a digital camera includes a first device part(A1) to be mounted instead of a film, a memory incorporated or detachably attached to the device part, a small-sized liquid crystal monitor mounted on the device part, a USB port (T2) for connecting the device part to a main body of a computer to transmit data stored in the memory to the computer compatibly, and a second device part mounted with a CCD optical sensor and detachably assembled with the first device part.

Description

Device and method to digitalize a general camera {a device make a digital camera of a common camera}

The present invention relates to a device and method for attaching a simple device instead of a film to a general camera so that it can be utilized like a digital camera.

Digital cameras are now replacing general cameras, and are becoming increasingly popular.

However, in the case of digital cameras, the prevalence is rapidly increasing, but the price is significantly higher than that of similar cameras, and the functions are not as good as those of general cameras. Digital cameras with functions similar to ordinary high-end cameras are too expensive to be easily purchased by the general public. Even if a digital camera is purchased, it is almost incompatible with the accessories of a general camera, and the problem of double costs arises because it is necessary to purchase accessories for a digital camera at a high cost again.

Therefore, the present invention for solving the above problems is that by attaching a simple device instead of a film to the general camera to make a digital camera to take full advantage of the advantages and functions of the general camera as well as to use the accessories for the general camera. It's a breakthrough.

A device that transforms the shape of a film used in a general camera into a digital camera is attached to a general camera instead of a film so that the general camera can be converted into a digital camera.

Therefore, without the need to buy expensive digital cameras separately, digital cameras can be digitized through a simple device so that the general public can also come in contact with digital cameras at a low price, making the present invention to take advantage of the various functions and accessories of general cameras For the purpose of

T1 LCD TV

T2 USB port

Buttons to control the T3 monitor (Delete, Save and Retrieve)

What happens to the camera, such as T4 ordinary film

T5 battery compartment (lithium battery)

S1 CCD light sensor (where the light that enters through the lens is converted into an electrical signal)

S2 is the coupling part of A1 and A2 and also the place where current flows between A1 and A2

In the case of a general camera, when an object is taken, light entering through the lens of the camera forms an image on the film mounted on the camera. In this process, the digital camera places an optical sensor called CCD at the place where the image is formed instead of the general film to image the light coming through the lens, and converts the image into an electrical signal. That is, it is converted into a graphic file and then recorded in a recording medium such as a built-in or removable memory.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, this process is handled by the A1 and A2 devices. In other words, the light entered through the lens is imaged and sent to the A1 device to save as a graphic file in the internal memory.

The graphic file stored in the internal memory is formed on the small LCD monitor attached to the A1 device. The image on the monitor is stored through the button (T3) under the monitor so that the necessary items can be deleted.

In addition, by connecting to the computer main body through the USB port (T2) to transfer the stored in the memory of the A1 main body to the computer to be compatible with each other.

It also connects to the USB port (T2) and cellular phone (cell phone) port through the connection device, so that photos taken in the field can be uploaded to the Internet in real time.

The part of the T4 allowed the A1's device to be combined with a regular camera.

In T5, a small battery is used to supply current to the A1 device so that it can be used in manual cameras, and both manual and automatic cameras can be used.

A1 and A2 were removable and A2 was equipped with CCD light sensor (S1).

Diversified functions of A1 and A2

USB port is attached to A1, and the internal memory can be fixedly attached or the memory can be removed and exchanged.

In addition, through various combinations of A1 and A2, various functions were diversified to allow users to select digital camera functions.

It is also a connection part that connects current between A1 and A2 through S2, a device that connects A1 and A2.

As described above, the present invention allows a digital camera to be used at a lower price by using a simple device as a digital camera instead of a film mounted on a general camera in order to utilize a general camera that is widely distributed around the world. Various functions and accessories of general cameras can be used so that everyone can easily access them.
