Exemplary embodiments provide a technique that processes captured images derived from selected targeted objects in a field of view. The captured images may be transferred via a communication link to a storage location for future availability. A possible aspect may provide a cross-reference association between saved multiple exposures having different quality characteristics. In some instances an identifier record is provided to enable future accessibility to selected captured data by one or more authorized parties or approved devices or authorized recipients. In some embodiments the captured data may include both a video data stream and one or more still image frames derived from related fields of view. Stored versions of the captured images may be provided in original or altered form to be incorporated in a composite visual work.

Camera apparatus for magnetically recording on film

In a video camera integrated with a still camera in which the still camera and the video camera are integrated into one camera body, while photography is not being performed by the video camera, an image immediately preceding an image to be recorded by the still camera and an image immediately following the image recorded by the still camera can be displayed on a monitor of the video camera. While photography is being performed by the video camera, the display of images before and after the execution of photography by the still camera is inhibited. When the camera is equipped with a flash device and still camera recording is accompanied by a flash emission, control is effected such that image information is stored for one field which is recorded by the video camera and which does not include image information for one field which does not contain an emission of the flash device is displayed. Alternatively, during flashing, an exposure value of the video camera may be made approximately equal to a correct exposure value that allows the still camera to achieve a correct exposure during flashing and display is made of a stored field which contains the emission of the flash device.

MAGNETIC RECORDING AND/OR REPRODUCING APPARATUS ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE In recording periodic information signals, such as, the chrominance signal components of color video signals, having first or field intervals which are further subdivided into second or line intervals and which are recorded in successive parallel tracks on a record medium, interference or cross-talk between signals recorded in adjacent tracks is reduced or eliminated during reproduction by recording the information signals in adjacent tracks with first and second carriers having different frequencies Upon reproducing the information signals recorded in adjacent tracks with such first and second carriers, the reproduced signals are reconverted to have a common carrier frequency by means of respective first and second reconverting signals which similarly have different frequencies selected so that, although an information signal reproduced from a particular track and reconverted to the common carrier frequency will pass through a comb filter, the cross-talk signals reproduced simultaneously from adjacent tracks will be reconverted to have carrier frequencies at nodes of the comb filter so as to be eliminated by the latter The circuits by which the first and second carriers and the first and second reconverting signals are produced during recording and reproducing operations, respectively, each include a phase-locked loop having a voltage-controlled variable frequency oscillator whose output frequency is suitably changed in successive field intervals, and preferably in which the center frequency of the voltage-controlled variable frequency oscilator is also changed in the successive field intervals for obtaining rapid stabilization of the respective output frequency ?

Vapor deposition apparatus, and vapor deposition source, and display device manufacturing method

A tension control device, particularly for an apparatus recording and/or reproducing video signals on a tape which is wound on and extends between supply and take-up reels, includes a pivoted tension control arm urged by a tensioning spring against a run of the tape between the reels for detecting the tape tension and correspondingly controlling a brake resisting rotation of the supply reel so as to maintain the tape tension at a level determined by the spring force, and the spring force is made adjustable for varying the tape tension which is to be maintained by connecting the tensioning spring to a movable anchor member which is substantially counter-balanced, for example, by another spring acting on the anchor member in opposition to the tensioning spring. Movements of the anchor member for adjusting the force of the tensioning spring are effected by a manually actuable control element preferably having an irreversible coupling to the anchor member which provides a substantial mechanical advantage, for example, in the form of a cam member turnable with the control element and engaged by a cam follower on the movable anchor member.

Tension control device for a video tape recording and/or reproducing apparatus

A camera has a video camera unit to shoot a movie picture and a still camera unit to shoot a still picture so as to allow movie and still pictures to be taken simultaneously. The camera is provided with mechanism to automatically wind or rewind a film installed in the still camera unit. While a movie picture shooting operation is taking place, the camera disables the film wind and rewind operations so as to prevent the noise due to the film wind or rewind operation from being recorded in the video camera unit.
