Abstract
This invention relates to a pseudo-zoom camera and an image processing system using the camera in which any of the pseudo-zoom magnification and the pseudo-zoom magnification number, or any of the pseudo-zoom magnification and the pseudo-zoom magnification number in combination with the picture area are recorded as pseudo-zoom information.
Claims28
A pseudo-zoom camera in which at least a pseudo-zoom magnification is recorded as pseudo-zoom information on a photographic film, a film cartridge or a recording medium, and with which a service is available in which said pseudo-zoom magnification in pseudo-zoom information is read out at photographic printing or image data outputting and a picture area corresponding to said pseudo-zoom magnification is printed as a photographic print or output as image data from a photographed image, comprising:
- at least one of a pseudo-zoom magnification designation unit which designates said pseudo-zoom magnification and a pseudo-zoom pattern designation unit which designates a number representing a pseudo-zoom pattern obtained by patterning said pseudo-zoom pattern;
- or
- at least one of said pseudo-zoom magnification designation unit and said pseudo-zoom pattern designation unit, and a picture area designation unit which designates said picture area,
- wherein any of said pseudo-zoom magnification and said pseudo-zoom magnification number, or any of said pseudo-zoom magnification and said pseudo-zoom magnification pattern in combination with said picture area is recorded as pseudo-zoom information.
A camera according to 1, wherein the pseudo-zoom magnification designated by said pseudo-zoom magnification designation unit or said pseudo-zoom pattern designated by said pseudo-zoom magnification pattern designation unit is limited corresponding to a kind of film.
An image processing system in which pseudo-zoom information recorded by said pseudo-zoom camera capable of recording a pseudo-zoom information is read out said pseudo-zoom information recorded on any of a photographic film, a film cartridge and a recording medium, and a picture area corresponding to a pseudo-zoom magnification in said pseudo-zoom information is printed out or output as image data from a photographed image, said system comprising:
- a unit which changes at least one image processing condition of pseudo-zoom processing based on said pseudo-zoom magnification or said pseudo-zoom magnification pattern in said pseudo-zoom information.
