摘要:
A photographic camera having a magnetic actuating device associated with an electronic control device for initiating a release of one or more of the camera mechanisms from the cocked position thereof. In one embodiment of the invention, the magnetic actuating device comprises a single magnetic winding with a core material having a substantially rectangular hysteresis loop, and an armature of which the movement is controlled by the polarity of the magnetic winding and which is connected to spring-biased means for latching the mechanism in the cocked position. After the core is magnetized by applying a voltage to the magnetic winding for a relatively short period to hold the armature with the latching means in the cocked position against the force of the spring, the magnetic winding is energized by an output of the opposite polarity from the electronic control device causing the armature to move away from the core, whereby the release of the mechanism is initiated.

In a camera provided with a day-light exposure range and with a flash exposure range, an automatic exposure control system for controlling the iris of the camera in accordance with a computed exposure value and a preselected shutter time is associated with a flash exposure time range bracketing device in order to insure that the formation of a correct flash exposure aperture is effected with automatic selection of one of the bracketed exposure times despite an accidentally incorrect setting of the shutter dial of the camera which may be encountered particularly when the day-light exposure range is to be left for the flash exposure range without the necessary manipulation of the shutter dial therefor. The bracketing device of the present invention comprises three timing circuits in combination with a selector responsive to the position of the shutter dial for selecting either the first, or the second, or the third timing circuit for cooperation with an electronic switch controlling the period of actuation of the camera shutter when the shutter dial is set either within, or on the faster side of, or on the slower side of a possible flash exposure time range respectively, whereby the resultant actuation period is equal to either the shutter time preselected on the shutter dial, or the faster limit of, or the slower limit of the flash exposure time range respectively.
摘要:
A method whereby an integrated circuit element such as IC or LSI and the like on a printed circuit board and the external leads of the circuit element are electrically connected to the conductor patterns on the circuit board, in which holes are provided in the circuit element and the conductor patterns so as to effect quick and accurate positioning and mounting.
摘要:
A camera having an exposure control device or, more particularly, having a digital control circuit for controlling exposure. Sequence control over a photographing operation and control over a display operation are both accomplished by the same sequence control circuit, which is simplified and yet permits selection between self-timer photographing and ordinary photographing operations.
摘要:
A camera which permits change-over between different light measuring systems is disclosed. The camera includes a first light measuring element which measures light coming from an object to be photographed and an operational amplifier responsive to the element. A light measurement information producing circuit is included for producing a light measurement information signal for exposure computation. A change-over device is connected between the light measurement information producing circuit and the operational amplifier. The change-over device is arranged to be shiftable between a first position wherein the operational amplifier is connected to the light measurement information producing circuit and a second position wherein the operational amplifier is not so connected. An accessory device is attachable to the camera body. The accessory device includes a second light receiving element for measuring light from the object within a light measurement range different from that of the first light receiving element and another operational amplifier responsive thereto. A terminal is responsive to the signal from the latter operational amplifier. The terminal is disposed at the second position of the change-over device so that the signal from the latter operation is applied to the light measurement information producing circuit when the change-over device is in this position.

In a single lens reflex camera an electromagnetic release initiates operation of an automatic diaphragm control, a mirror driver, and a shutter driver, in that order. The electromagnetic release device includes a mechanical output terminal for controlling each mechanism and an electric input terminal. The electromagnetic release device is provided in a flat space above the bottom exterior wall of the camera.
摘要:
An adapter matches an electronic flash unit with a single terminal carrying diaphragm and charge data to a camera having separate terminals for these data. A second adapter matches a flash unit having two terminals for diaphragm and charge data to a camera in which these data pass through a single terminal. Circuitry in the adapters combine or separate the data as needed.
摘要:
A selector circuit interrupted by an electrical signal from an attachment selectively mounted on the camera body and is connected in the light receiving circuit as well as the exposure determining circuit provided in the camera. When the above mentioned unit is mounted on the camera the exposure determining circuit provided in the camera is automatically connected from the light receiving circuit to the output terminal of the unit by means of the selector circuit, so as to receive the exposure value signal on the unit and set the exposure value corresponding to the exposure value signal.
