VIDEO CAMERA WITH STILL CAMERA

摘要

PURPOSE:To more effectively produce an atmosphere at the time of reproduction by sound recording a pseudo shutter sound onto a recording medium of a video camera section at shutter release of a still camera section. CONSTITUTION:A changeover switch 55 connects an amplifier 51 and an AGC circuit 52 at the recording by the video camera section 32 normally and a sound of a microphone 9 is sound recorded. When a shutter (not shown in figure) of the still camera section 31 is released during the recording by the camera section 32, the changeover switch 55 is thrown to connect an oscillation circuit 56 and the AGC circuit 52 and a pseudo shutter tone made by the oscillation circuit 56 comprising a crystal oscillator 57 and a frequency divider 58 is recorded. Thus, when the shutter is released, the pseudo shutter tone generated artificially is recorded in place of the actual shutter release tone collected by the microphone or while being superimposed thereupon.
