A photographing system for speedily providing photographs meeting a customer's request at relatively low prices is provided. An image of a subject is recorded on a film by a film camera. A still image of the subject is take by an electronic camera in synchronization with the film camera. An identification code generated every photographing is written at a position other than the image on the film to make a one-to-one correspondence between the image and the identification code. The still image i...

In the photographic apparatus disclosed a long-exposure adapter is attached to a camera to lengthen the camera's shutter operating times. When the camera's light sensing system responds to a low illumination by setting the shutter time to B (infinite time), an operator shifts to the long exposure range. The adapter then responds to a high sensitivity sensor and a long exposure timing device in the adapter is adjusted for the low illumination. The adapter then operates the shutter release of the ...

According to the present invention, a self photographing is effected upon a detection of a face, which prevents a photographing of a failed image which does not include a face of a person in intending photographing a person. In particular, in generating a self portrait photograph where the photographer himself/herself is the object, even through the photographer is away from the photographing apparatus operation, a clocking and a shutter control are performed to obtain an image having the photog...

A photographing device and method of dividing data of electric charges stored in all pixels corresponding to an image focused on an photographing device having a color filter for resolving color into M(.gtoreq.3) fields, transferring the divided data in sequence until data of m(<M) fields of the M fields are transferred, the transferred data of the m fields including all types of color signals and pixels necessary to prepare a color image and preparing a color image using the transferred data...

A thermal transfer printer containing a means for feeding a plurality of thermal transfer sheets and a plurality of image receiving sheets, a platen roller placed in the feeding path of the thermal transfer and image receiving sheets, and a recording section with a thermal head with a plurality of heating resistors for selective activation based upon image data to record the image on the image receiving sheets when they and the thermal transfer sheets are forced together by the platen roller so ...

A photographing apparatus, wherein a film storage unit is detachable from the main unit even when the film storage is reversed so that the positions of the supply and windup sides of film will be switched, enables a user to replace film for reciprocatory recording with the film loaded in the storage unit, and helps reduce fogging and improve operability.

The present invention is directed to a photographing lens containing, in order from an object side: a first lens having a positive refractive power and a convex surface facing the object side; a second lens having a negative refractive power; a third lens having a positive refractive power; and a fourth lens having a negative refractive power and at least one aspheric surface, the photographing lens satisfying the following conditional expressions: ##EQU1## where L.sub.T denotes the distance on ...

A photographing box is arranged to reduce a time taken from photographing an object to printing the image of the object. The photographing box is intended to be manufactured at low cost and more easily maintained. The photographing box includes a photographing mechanism house for housing a photographing mechanism and a photographing space section. If paid, the photographing device is operated to illuminate an object, photograph the object, and do some image processing like image magnification or...

A photographing apparatus is equipped with a photographing optical system, a film holding member on which the photographing optical system is fixed, a supporting frame which rotatably supports the film holding member around a shaft, an outer supporting frame which rotatably supports the supporting frame around the shaft, a finder optical system which has an optical axis different from that of the photographing optical system and which is mounted on the top surface of the outer supporting frame, ...

According to a photographing apparatus of this invention, tilt angles of a photographing optical system at least at two points on a plane and a lens position in an in-focus state or in a zooming state are prestored before a photographing operation. When an object moving on the plane is photographed in practice, the focusing or zooming operation of the photographing lens system is appropriately performed in accordance with the tilt angle of the optical photographing system directed toward the obj...
