    摘要: Video camera which emphasizes an outline of a video signal produced thereby. A detail signal of a video image represented by the video signal is generated and which represents a vertical outline emphasis signal. Edges of the video image and burst-like portions of the video signal are detected, and an edge detection signal is generated that corresponds in one manner to the detected edges and that corresponds in another manner to the detected burst portions. The detail signal is adjusted by the edge detection signal or by a cross color suppression signal generated from the vertical outline emphasis signal. The video signal then is modified by the adjusted detail signal so as to produce the outline emphasized video signal. The detail signal may also be adjusted by a gain setting signal that corresponds to the vertical outline emphasis signal and which is compressed in level when the vertical outline emphasis signal is relatively low.

    摘要: An image signal generator generates an imaging signal having a frame rate that is controlled to be variable. A frame rate converter generates a monitor image signal. Upon receiving communication information from an external source, a controller controls the operations of the image signal generator and the frame rate converter on the basis of the communication information. When an instruction to specify the frame rate of the monitor image signal is given from a user interface, the controller controls the frame rate converter to generate a monitor image signal having a specified frame rate by giving priority to this instruction over the communication information.

    摘要: An image shooting unit 21 generates an image signal Spa having an image shooting frame rate. A frame addition unit 41 performs frame addition on the image signal DVb having the image shooting frame rate. Control unit 61 controls drive unit 71 and the frame addition unit 41 based on a frame rate setting signal RSF from operation unit 62, and controls a variation of the image shooting frame rate in image shooting unit 21 and/or a switch of the number of additive frames in the frame addition unit 41, thus allowing an image signal DVj having a desired frame rate to be output from the frame addition unit 41. Thus, increasing the additive frame in number even without decreasing the image shooting frame rate at a low-speed shooting of the image allows such an image signal DVj shot at the low speed to be obtained.

    摘要: In a time axis converting section 10, time axis conversion processing of 4/3 times is implemented to a digital picture signal of a first data rate indicating an image of a first aspect ratio (16:9) to thereby generate a digital picture signal of a second data rate indicating an image of a second aspect ratio (4:3). In a data rate converting section 20, data rate conversion processing of conversion ratio of 3:4 is implemented to the digital picture signal of the second data rate to thereby generate, from the digital picture signal of the first data rate indicating the image of the first aspect ratio (16:9), a digital picture signal of a first data rate indicating the image of the second aspect ratio (4:3).
