MARKING OF INTERSPERSED MOTION-PICTURE SCENES AND STILL SHOTS WITH INTERRUPT-TRANSPORT MARKINGS

摘要

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSUREThe user of a motion picture camera selects betweenmotion-picture and single-exposure operation, and presses a re-lease member to initiate shooting, letting go of it to terminatemotion-picture shooting, Each time the user lets go of the re-lease member, an internal device provides an interrupt-transportmarking alongisde the just exposed film frame, or phase shiftedrelative thereto, Alternatively, the interrupt-transport markingis provided the next time the user presses the release member.In this way, the terminal frame of each motion-picture scene,and each and every one of the interspersed single-exposure shots,is provided with an interrupt-transport frame marking, Thus,if the film is run through a reproducing apparatus provided witha marking detector, detection of each interrupt-transport markingduring motion-picture reproduction causes the terminal frame ofeach motion-picture scene, and also each one of the still shots,to be persistently reproduced as a still image. The interrupt-transport markings could alternatively be provided by such adevice in a reproducing apparatus,-1-
