摘要:
A film transport mechanism for a camera comprises a film take-up spool rotated to advance a filmstrip from a film cartridge onto the take-up spool, and a perforation sensor for detecting a turn-around perforation in a trailing end portion of the filmstrip to initiate return of the filmstrip from the take-up spool to the film cartridge. The perforation sensor is movable to a sensing position against the filmstrip to be able to drop into the turn-around perforation when the turn-around perforation is advanced to the perforation sensor. A film-on-spool sensor is located against an outermost convolution of the filmstrip as the filmstrip accumulates on the take-up spool, and is moved in response to increased accumulation of the filmstrip on the take-up spool to effect movement of the perforation sensor to its sensing position before the turn-around perforation can be advanced to the perforation sensor.

A camera which can be loaded with a cartridge for a recording medium with a recording portion is disclosed. The camera includes a processing circuit for reproducing at least recording data recorded in the recording portion. The camera further includes a detecting unit that detects a state of use of the recording medium independently from the data reproduced by the processing circuit. A control circuit is also provided. When the processing circuit cannot perform reproduction of the recording data, the control circuit restricts an operation of the camera on the basis of the state of use of the recording medium detected by the detecting unit.
摘要:
A film metering pawl suitable for use with a motorized film drive has a perforation sensing tooth with a sloping leading edge that allows the tooth to be cammed out of each perforation by the perforation leading edge during prewind/rewind. The pawl also has an integral ramp which cooperates with a fixed pin to be lifted out of each perforation during frame-to-frame film advance beyond registration positions between exposures, without the necessity for mechanical connection to the camera exposure system. An infrared sensor monitors pawl position for motor drive/synchronization purposes.

A motor-driven film winder for use with a camera includes an exposure inhibit signal generator for generating an exposure inhibit signal when the number of frames to be exposed which is set by an exposure setting unit coincides with the number of exposed frames counted by a counter. The motor-driven film winder also has an unexposed frame indicator for indicating the difference between the number of frames set by the exposure setting unit and the count of the counter as the number of remaining unexposed frames when a shutter release operation of the camera is interrupted before the count of the counter reaches the preset number of frames to be exposed, and an intermittent exposure canceling signal generator for issuing an intermittent exposure cancelling signal to an intermittent exposure signal generator when the preset number of frames to be exposed coincides with the counter of the counter.
摘要:
A camera having powered mechanism for advancing a strip of film past a location at which the film is exposed to take a series of successive pictures on the film, with sensing means being provided adjacent the film and acting to respond to its longitudinal movement, and with automatic control means being provided for actuation by the sensing means in a relation halting operation of the film advancing mechanism when the sensing means determine that the film has been advanced through a predetermined distance.
摘要:
A camera adapted to receive film perforated at predetermined metering intervals, is provided with electromagnetic shutter release means which includes switch means for preventing double exposure. The switch means permits shutter release operation when the camera is not loaded with film as well as when a fresh film frame is in registry with the camera exposure area. In preferred embodiments, the switch means may be operated by a film perforation sensing mechanism and/or film cartridge sensing means.
摘要:
A photographic camera of a type using film cartridges, comprising a sensing lever which can cooperate with a film contained in a film cartridge and a control lever engaged with said sensing lever so as to make a release button operatable only when the film has been completely wound up in case the cartridge is mounted on a camera body so that the operating stroke of the release button may be small and the structure may be simplified.

A system to meter strip advances in photocopying apparatus is described in which the strip and a metering roll travelling together precisely are stopped intermittently by cogs fixed to the roll coming to abut a stop element at intervals proportioned to predetermined advances of the strip.
