Abstract: A system and method is provided for using camera metadata from multiple cameras in a live environment to improve video production workflow. Each camera of the system is provided to media content of a live scene and store camera metadata that includes camera lens, position and gyro setting. This metadata can then be provided to other cameras in the system and/or a control that can generate a 3D metadata feed using the camera metadata. Moreover, based on the metadata feed, control instructions can be generated and transmitted to one or more of the cameras to control camera operations for capturing the media content.

Abstract: A viewfinder of an electronic camera includes a color display monitor that is adapted to display a scene captured by an image sensor arrangement of the camera. The color temperature of the viewfinder is continuously variable adjustable between a minimum and a maximum value. The color temperature adjustment of the viewfinder does not affect the color temperature of a video signal produced by the camera that is recorded or transmitted.

Abstract: In high-end professional video cameras a triax system is used for transferring various signals back and forth over a single coaxial cable between the camera and a base unit using frequency multiplexing. In low-cost camera systems the analogue camera CVBS video output signal is replaced by a standard serial SDI signal from the camera to a base unit, having a maximum data rate of e.g. 270 Mbit/s for standard definition TV signals. According to the invention, the camera/base unit system is locked via SDI channels whereby the base unit video output is synchronised to the base unit Genlock signal. The camera unit and the base unit each use a local oscillator and H and V counters, whereby in the camera unit only a frequency locking is carried out.
