  • Patent number: 11627232
    Abstract: In a digital motion picture camera comprising an electronic image sensor for generating image signals, a control unit is configured, in response to a scene record command, to generate a sequence data stream, which represents a sequence of consecutive frames, from the image signals of the image sensor and to transmit the sequence data stream to a sequence memory device. The control unit is configured, in response to an identification image record command, to generate an identification image data set, which represents at least one scene identification image, from the image signals of the image sensor and to buffer the identification image data set in a buffer memory, with the control unit further being configured to insert the buffered identification image data set into a subsequently generated sequence data stream such that the sequence of consecutive frames is preceded by the scene identification image.
