摘要:
In a first aspect of the present invention, a camera exposure control system is provided. The camera exposure control system has a shutter movable during an exposure period through a path of travel between a first position and a second position and a detector to sense the shutter and to generate a signal when the shutter is at a flash trigger position on the path of travel. A flash circuit is provided and receives the signal generated by the detector causing a flash of light to discharge when the signal is received. A stop is also provided. The stop is selectably movable from a location out of the path of travel of the shutter to a location in the path of travel of the shutter. The location of the stop determines whether the detector can sense the shutter during the exposure.

An instant book binding system and book cover for rapidly binding single- or double-sided documents, photographs, pages, and other forms of hardcopy media into soft or hard cover books is disclosed. The book binding method using the book cover or system can be performed without special skills or training, and does not require the use of ancillary equipment. The book cover system can be used in conjunction with output on a wide variety of media types, finishes, and stock weights from any type of printer or copier, or with photographs. The finished books retain the appearance and function of conventional mass produced soft and hard covered books.

A print scanner with jam detection system including a scanning module mounted in a body, such that the scanning module scans in a capture zone to capture an archival image of said capture zone as well as one or more non-archival images. One or more image capture modules mounted in the body in fixed relation to the capture zone being operative to capture a stream of the non-archival images in the capture zone.

A camera has a capture unit and a body holding the capture unit. The body has a front cover, a rear cover, and an internal cavity disposed between the covers. The body has a viewfinder box extending from an outer surface of one of the covers to an outer surface of the other cover. A viewfinder lens unit is disposed in the viewfinder box.

A one-time-use camera includes a film cartridge with a film winding spool that is rotatable to wind a filmstrip into the film cartridge, a manually rotatable film winding thumbwheel having an axis that is parallel to an axis of the film winding spool, and a rotatable endless belt rotationally engaging the film winding thumbwheel and the film winding spool to permit rotation of the thumbwheel to rotate the spool. Since the endless belt permits the axis of the film winding thumbwheel to be spaced from the axis of the film winding spool, rather than being coaxial, the thumbwheel can protrude substantially from a narrow opening in a rear cover part to allow it to be easily grasped in order to be rotated.

A camera is capable of being assembled with an alternately positioned mode indicator. The camera includes the following in order to achieve this objective. A support adapted to hold a mode indicator at any one of at least two different locations in order to enable the mode indicator to be alternatively positioned at the respective locations. A part having separate openings aligned with the respective locations at which the mode indicator can be alternatively positioned. And a cover covering each of the openings in the part except the opening aligned with the location at which the mode indicator is positioned, to allow the mode indicator to be sensed via that opening.
