摘要:
A photographic apparatus which can accept cassettes for high-speed or lower-sensitivity film has a mechanical or electronic switch which automatically deactivates a light-emitting diode which serves to indicate the intensity of scene light as soon as a cassette for high-speed film is properly inserted into the body of the apparatus. Such cassette further causes a filter to move out of register with the light-sensitive resistor which is in circuit with the diode and is exposed to scene light. The diode is also deactivated if the diaphragm is adjusted to furnish an aperture of maximum or minimum size; alternatively, the diode is deactivated only when the body of the apparatus contains high-speed film and the diaphragm is adjusted to furnish an aperture of maximum or minimum size.

A photographic camera comprises two deviating mirrors arranged within the camera housing between the objective and the film strip in such a manner that the optical axis of the light rays between the objective and the assigned first mirror lies on a different plane than the optical axis of the rays between the second mirror and the film strip.

A film transport arrangement for a cassette has a film transport handle, a perforation wheel having a plurality of keys and arranged to engage a perforated film accommodated in a cassette having a film mouth and inserted or insertable in the camera and to move the film from the cassette, and an adjusting device for adjusting the perforation wheel and arranged between the film transport handle and the perforation wheel so that the perforation wheel is always held or brought into such an angular position in which one of its teeth engages in a perforation hole of a film initial portion lying in a film mouth of the cassette insertable or inserted in the camera.

A photographic camera has a film transporting mechanism which requires different amounts of energy during different phases of each film-transporting cycle. A gear drive is provided which furnishes to the mechanism differing energy amounts while itself receiving a substantially constant energy input.

A photographic camera is provided with means for detachably mounting either a flashbulb flash unit or an electronic flash unit. The camera includes a piezoelectric transducer mechanically activatable for generating voltage impulses. When the flashbulb flash unit is mounted on the camera, the voltage impulses are directly applied across the terminals of the flashbulb. There elapses a certain time interval between the start of flashbulb firing and the development of maximum flashbulb output illumination. This time interval is taken into account in the design of the shutter-activating mechanism. When, instead of the flashbulb flash unit, the electronic flash unit is mounted on the camera, the voltage impulses generated for flashbulb firing are utilized to initiate operation of the electronic flash unit. Because the flash tube of the unit develops maximum output illumination more quickly than does a flashbulb, a time-delay circuit is utilized to effect compensation.
