Abstract
A video camera system is arranged to detect the amount of movement of a video camera, to form image data indicative of the direction of the video camera, and to combine this image data with image data obtained from the video camera. The video camera system is further arranged to combine the camera direction indicating image data with the image data of a wide-angle image obtained from the video camera into data for a display to be made on an auxiliary image plane, and to process the image data of a tele-photo image obtained from the video camera into data for a display to be made on a main image plane.
