Publication number: 20030160891Abstract: In a camera-incorporating VTR (1), the camera-signal processing circuit (5) performs a camera-signal process on a video signal output from an imager (4). The recording circuit (7) receives an image signal from the camera-signal processing circuit (5) and records the signal on a video tape. The reproducing circuit (8) reproduces the image signal recorded on the videotape by the recording circuit (7). The microprocessor (9) causes the focus ring (3) mounted on the optical lens (2) to function as a speed-changing ring to change the speed of reproducing the image signal. The VTR (1) remains small and can yet enable the user to edit data with a high efficiency.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2003Publication date: August 28, 2003Inventor: Masaki Mikamo
