A zoom lens system comprising an afocal front lens assembly and an image forming rear lens assembly is provided with stabilized optical means arranged in the optical path between said front and rear lens assemblies. When zooming, the stabilized optical means is controlled in accordance with the variation of angular magnification of the front lens assembly and with the deviation of the housing incorporating the zoom lens system from an original line of sight. The image is thus stabilized at the focal plane thereof against such deviation by varying the deflecting angle of the exiting light axis from the stabilized optical means with respect to the entering light axis. In one embodiment of the present invention, the rear lens assembly includes one or more members movable for zooming in such a manner that the zooming operation of the front lens assembly is consecutively followed by the zooming operation of the rear lens assembly, or vice versa. The stabilized optical means is preferably constructed in the form of a variable optical wedge, or a combination of a swingable mirror and a fixed mirror.

摘要:
A system for processing a strip of motion picture film with a multi-purpose film handling cartridge adapted for use in film-exposing, processing and projection operations. Responsive to varying rates of travel of the film strip across a processing station provided in the cartridge as it is being transported between the paired spools to which respective ends of the film strip are attached, a variable-speed driving mechanism mounted externally of the cartridge controls the speed of the spool to establish a constant rate of travel of the film strip across the processing station at any particular instance even though the winding diameters of the film strip on the spools are ever being varied, so that a uniform application of a coating of processing fluid is effected along the length of the exposed film strip without the necessity of providing any particular constant speed device within the cartridge. The variable speed driving mechanism is associated with an actuating member adapted to be accessible to the operator from the outside of the system housing and which once manually operated for actuation cannot be released from the actuating position by hand but automatically released when the entire length of the film strip has been processed to thereby prevent accidental interruptions of the running processing operation.
摘要:
In the device disclosed, an image formed by an optical system is scanned by an image sensor composed of independently arranged photoelectric transducing elements to produce an image scanning signal. A detecting circuit detects the variation of the brightness between the adjacent image elements as a measure of the sharpness of the image and the focus of the optical system. The focus detection accuracy is improved by non-linear transformation of the brightness variation signal with a non-linear transformation circuit that weighs the brightness variation signal on the basis of the signal level. A signal forming circuit detects the difference between the outputs of transducing elements and adds the differences to produce a comparator signal when a predetermined relationship is reached between the sharpness indication and the addition signal. An indicator indicates that the focusing condition cannot be discerned in response to the comparison signal and a control inhibits the output of the detection circuit to the indicator prior to the addition signal.
