A camera wherein a front housing which contains a photographing optical system, an exposure device, etc. is connected by a foldable connecting device such as a bellows or the like to a rear housing which contains a photosensitive material to be exposed to light, a view finder optical system, etc. During photographing, the foldable connecting device is stretched to adjust the distance between the front and rear housings to a distance suitable for photographing. When the camera is not in use, the connecting device is contracted to being the front and rear housings very close to each other. An electrical wiring arrangement of a flexible material is either provided on the surface of the bellows or formed together with the bellows as an integral part of the bellows when it is formed in such a way as to be stretchable and contractable together with the bellows, the wiring service to electrically connect the components disposed in the front housing to those disposed in the rear housing. In our embodiment, a main switch disposed in the rear housing is operable from a switch control device in the front housing when the bellows is fully expanded.

A game system includes a management apparatus and a game device. The management apparatus includes an authentication section for obtaining results of authentications using first and second identifiers that should correspond to a user. When the results of the authentications are affirmative, a validity time limit is associated with the first identifier. In addition, the game device includes a confirmatory identifier acquirer for acquiring a confirmatory identifier that should correspond to the user, and an inquiry maker for making an inquiry asking the management apparatus to check whether or not the first identifier conforming to the confirmatory identifier is stored in the management apparatus. The inquiry inquires the management apparatus to check whether or not the validity time limit corresponding to the first identifier is a time after the present time when the first identifier conforming to the confirmatory identifier is stored in the management apparatus. A permitter of the management apparatus permits execution of a service associated with the first identifier used in the inquiry when results of checks by the manager in response to the inquiry are affirmative.

The present invention is to be capable of increasing an opportunity for a user to start playing a game apparatus that the user does not often play so as to allow a large number of users to know enjoyment of that game apparatus.The present game system includes two or more game apparatuses, each of which comprises a game progress control unit for controlling progress of a game of which content differs from each other. The game system comprises: an identification information receiving unit for receiving identification information of a user; a first challenge notifying unit for notifying the user of a first challenge of obtaining a first game progress result by playing a first game apparatus out of two or more game apparatuses, which needs to be cleared; a first clear information output unit for outputting first clear information when a progress result of a game of which progress is controlled by a game progress control unit of the first game apparatus becomes the first game progress result relating to the first challenge notified by the first challenge notifying unit; a second challenge notifying unit for notifying the user of a second challenge of obtaining a second game progress result by playing a second game apparatus out of the two or more game apparatuses, which needs to be cleared; a second clear information output unit for outputting second clear information when a progress result of a game of which progress is controlled by a game progress control unit of the second game apparatus becomes the second game progress result relating to the second challenge notified by the second challenge notifying unit; a storage unit for storing the first clear information output by the first clear information output unit and the second clear information output by the second clear information output unit, in a manner to be associated with identification information received by the identification information receiving unit; and a processing unit for performing a predetermined process for determining, as a result of the identification information receiving unit receiving the identification information, whether or not a predetermined process condition including a condition under which the first clear information and the second clear information are stored in a manner to be associated with the identification information in the storage unit is satisfied, and for performing, when the predetermined process condition is satisfied, a predetermined process that is not performed when the predetermined process condition is not satisfied.
摘要:
In order to prevent a situation where a winner for a jackpot award is consequently concentrated on a player who plays by using a particular game apparatus that is a part of a game system, the game system includes a jackpot drawing apparatus for performing the following processes: when the drawing unit determines winning of the jackpot award, payout amount data is read out from the storage unit, a payout process for paying out a payout target having at least a part of an amount indicated by the read-out payout amount data to the winning player is carried out, and at the same time, when a predetermined payout amount increasing condition is satisfied, the amount indicated by the payout amount data stored in the storage unit is cumulatively increased. The drawing unit carries out the jackpot drawing by carrying out a group drawing carried out for determining whether one winning group is selected or neither group is selected according to a predetermined group drawing condition, from previously determined two or more groups each configured by two or more game apparatuses, and by carrying out, when the winning group is selected by the group drawing, a winner drawing carried out for determining whether the player who wins the jackpot award is selected or neither player is selected, from the players who play by using the two or more game apparatuses belonging to the winning group.

There are disclosed a method of delivering pictorial image data per each color obtained by applying color resolution to a manuscript using a color scanner to a sublimation transfer printer to effect a transfer from a sublimation transfer sheet to an image-receiving sheet, thus to make a hard copy of a color image, and a device for implementing such a method. The image data comprises three primary data of cyan, magenta and yellow and black data calculated from the three primary data. Data obtained by applying color and gradation corrections to the four color data are delivered to the sublimation transfer printer. The sublimation transfer sheet is provided with a transfer ink layer of four colors of cyan, magenta, yellow and black. By the operation of the sublimation transfer printer, the ink of each transfer ink layer is transferred onto the image-receiving paper, thus to make a hard copy.
摘要:
A shutter control circuit which normally responds to ambient light switches automatically to a flash mode in response to a charge signal from a flash unit. The light flash eliminates the charge signal. To prevent the absence of a charge signal from returning the shutter to daylight control, a shutter closing signal is generated before a flash synchronizing contact is closed and hence before the charge signal ends. However shutter closing action is then started only after a delay that provides time for the flash to occur when the shutter is fully open.
