Abstract
A camera provides a photo 7 printed on print media via printer device 6 under the control of a central processor 4. The photo 7 is a print of an image 5 provided by a CCD sensor 3. The photo 7 includes print media having, in addition, a magnetically recordable medium whereby sound processed by sound chip 10 received from sound microphone 13 and/or processed by central processor 4 can be recorded with magnetic recording head 16 on the photo 7. The photo 7 is printed using an ink jet printer on suitable ink jet compatible print media preferably with the magnetically recordable medium on the rear of the photo 7 and the image 2 on the front surface of the photo 7.
Claims5
A camera system for recording images, said camera system comprising:
- an electronic image sensor for sensing an image;
- a digital processing means for processing said sensed image in accordance with predetermined processing requirements;
- a photo width ink jet printer means for printing said processed image on a printing surface of ink jet print media, said print media being treated so that it is magnetically sensitive;
- and
- a magnetic recording means for recording associated information on a magnetic recording surface of said print media at the same time as said ink jet printer means prints said processed image onto the printing surface.
