Patent

CA 2231095

A video camera (20) is operated to obtain a very rapid change in magnification. A target degree of magnification is achieved by rapid change in an electronic zoom factor provided by an image signal processing circuit (28). Either before or after the change in electronic zoom factor, simultaneous off- setting changes are carried out in the electronic zoom factor and in a mechanical zoom factor provided by the camera's optical system (22). The simultaneous off-setting changes in the two zoom factors occur at a rate consistent with practical operation of the mechanical drive components for the camera's optical system.

Caméra vidéo (20) fonctionnant pour obtenir un changement très rapide du grossissement. Un degré cible de grossissement est obtenu par un changement rapide d'un facteur de zoom électronique donné par un circuit de traitement de signaux image (28). Soit avant, soit après le changement de facteur de zoom électronique, des changements simultanés de décalage sont effectués dans le facteur de zoom électronique et dans un facteur de zoom mécanique donnés par le système optique de la caméra (22). Les changements simultanés de décalage des deux facteurs de zoom se produisent à une vitesse compatible avec le fonctionnement pratique des composants d'entraînement mécanique du système optique de la caméra.
