To provide a laser-marking film having a laser-marking ink layer capable of forming vivid images when it is irradiated with a laser beam for forming laser markings. A laser-marking film comprising a base film, a white underlying layerformed on the base film, and an ink layerfor laser marking formed on the underlying layer, wherein the ink layercontains, dispersed therein, an iron oxide as a laser beam-absorbing agent in an amount of 0.1 to 30 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of a resin binder.

Laser-marking film

An image blur compensation device including a mechanism that can effectively reduce the effects of noise which becomes a problem in image blur compensation devices which are used in still cameras, video cameras, and the like. Particularly, the noise becomes a problem during position detection using a position sensitive device. The image blur compensation device includes an image blur compensation optical system to compensate for image blur arising due to blurring motion of an optical device, a position detection unit to detect the position of the image blur compensation optical system, an image blur compensation drive unit to drive the image blur compensation optical system based on the detection result of the position detection unit, and a power supply circuit which performs power supply to the position detection unit and the image blur compensation drive unit by a switching step-up control. The image blur compensation device includes an inhibition device to inhibit the detection operation of the position detection unit in a fixed period in which the switching phase of the power supply circuit has changed.

Image blur compensation device with reduced noise effect mechanism

The display apparatus according to the present invention includes a display device which has a rotating indicator pointer and which displays information by rotationally driving the indicator pointer, an operating device which is capable of being operated in two manners for rotating the indicator pointer, and a drive control device which rotationally drives the rotating indicator pointer in the same rotational direction, whichever be the one of the two manners in which the operating device is operated.

Rotating indicator pointer type display apparatus

An image vibration reduction device for reducing an image vibration on an imaging surface includes a vibration reduction optical system movable to reduce the image vibration and constituting part of an imaging optical system, and a vibration reduction optical system displacement detector including a light-emission unit and a light-reception unit using an optical position detection element to optically detect a change in position of the vibration reduction optical system. The device also includes a light-emission amount automatic adjustment means for adjusting a light-emission amount of the light-emission unit at a predetermined time on the basis of an output from the light-reception unit.
