    摘要: A video camera obtains a capture scope obtained through finder optics of a single-lens reflex camera and indicated by a view frame mask. A PC detects the position corresponding to the capture scope from the captured image captured by the image pickup device of the single-lens reflex camera, generates the information designating the position, and stores the information in the single-lens reflex camera. The system controller of the single-lens reflex camera extracts a part of the area in the captured image captured by the image pickup device, and records the image of the area in a memory card.

    摘要: A distance measuring device contains a light-projecting section for projecting luminous flux onto a subject. A light-receiving section is placed the base length away from the light-projecting section, receives the reflected rays of light from the subject, and produces a photoelectric current according to the amount of light received. The light-receiving section is divided into at least four light-receiving elements by a first dividing line that crosses the base length at right angles and by a second dividing line that crosses the first dividing line obliquely. A first ratio calculating section calculates the ratio of the sum of the photoelectric currents generated by the light-receiving elements on one side of the first dividing line to the sum of the photoelectric currents produced by the light-receiving elements on the other side. A second ratio calculating section calculates the ratio of the sum of the photoelectric currents generated by the light-receiving elements on one side of the second dividing line to the sum of the photoelectric currents produced by the light-receiving elements on the other side. A distance-determining section calculates the sum of the outputs of the first and second ratio calculating sections, and based on the resulting value, determines the distance from the device to the subject.

    摘要: An auto-focus apparatus for a camera includes a distance measurement unit for projecting infrared light toward an object, receiving the infrared light reflected by the object, and outputting a signal according to an object distance. A control unit operates the distance measurement unit twice at a predetermined time interval. A discrimination unit discriminates on the basis of two output signals output from the distance measurement unit whether or not the object is moving to the near distance side by an amount equal to or larger than a predetermined amount. An arithmetic unit converts the output signals from the distance measurement unit into an extension amount of a photographing lens. The arithmetic unit adds a predetermined value to the extension amount when the discrimination unit discriminates that the object is moving to the near distance side.
