Abstract

A video image pickup and display are used to provide electronic viewfinders for cameras. Black and white displays permit a photographer to see interactively the impact of camera adjustment on a resulting image. They also permit a photographer to visualize a black and white rendition of a color scene, when shooting in black and white film. The electronic display permits image processing results to be viewed either during calculations or by simulation. Techniques are disclosed for film and electronic storage media for still and for motion cameras and for color and black and white cameras.
