Abstract: A camera uses a program shutter as a shutter device. When an exposure value becomes larger than EV9, a stop of the camera is closed down so as to increase an f-number. In a case that the camera is loaded with a photographic film having film sensitivity of ISO 1000 or more, an upper limit of a focus set position of a taking lens is fixed to 3 m. By utilizing a depth of field, a picture is taken in a state that a blur is reduced, relative to a subject existing within a range from a comparatively short photographic-distance to a far photographic-distance.

Abstract: When a stop aperture formed by a shutter blade has reached a diameter corresponding to a predetermined f-number, a flash light is emitted and an exposure is performed with the flash light. Successively, the diameter of the stop aperture is gradually increased. When the stop aperture has reached a diameter corresponding to a set f-number, a color-temperature conversion filter is placed at a photographic optical path. Another exposure is performed with an illumination light which has passed through the color-temperature conversion filter.

Abstract: A lens-equipped film unit comprises a photographing mechanism including a photographic lens, a shutter of a fixed speed, an aperture and a strobe, and an unexposed photographic film has being charged therein. The photographing mechanism satisfying the relationship: 7.0≦log2(G2)+log2(1/T)≦12.5, wherein T represents shutter speed (sec) of the shutter and G represents guide number (ISO 100.m) of the strobe. The film unit further comprises a photometer to measure a subject light quantity and to output light quantity signal corresponding to the subject light quantity, and an exposure quantity controller toward the charged photographic film in accordance with the light quantity signal.

Abstract: A lens-fitted photo film unit for photographing an object includes a flash charger button as mode selector, which designates a selected one of a flashless mode and a flashing mode. An exposure aperture forms a color image by object light from the object. The image, if the flashless mode is designated, is recorded with first color balance in the exposure aperture, and if the flashing mode is designated, is recorded with second color balance. An electronic flash unit applies flash light to the object. A light balancing filter as color balance adjustor subjects the object light to correction if the flashless mode is designated, so as to set the first and second color balance substantially equal to one another.

Abstract: A lens-fitted photo film unit can take indoor- and night-photographs at adequate tone- and color-reproductions, by satisfying the condition: −6≦2log2(A)+log2(1/T)−log2(0.3·S)≦5 wherein T, A and S represents the shutter speed, the aperture size, and the ISO film speed. The film speed is determined to be not less than ISO640, and more preferably not less than ISO1000. The guide number (ISO100·m) of a flash device of the film unit is set to be in a range from 0.1 to 8, more preferably from 1 to 6, and most preferably from 3 to 5, and satisfies the condition: 8.0≦log2 (G2)+log2 (1/T)≦12.0, in combination with the shutter speed T.

Abstract: In large capacity and superconducting rotating electric machines, the stator coil windings are frequently placed in the air gap between the stator core and the rotor. This so-called air gap winding rotating electric machine has the drawback that reliably securing the stator coils to the stator core is difficult. In the air gap winding rotating electric machine according to the present invention, the stator coils are disposed between the outer circumference of a thin-walled electrically insulating cylinder surrounding the rotor and the inner circumference of the magnetic shield on the stator side. Taper keys are inserted between the outer circumference of the stator coils and the inner circumference of the magnetic shield so as to firmly press the stator coils against the thin-walled electrically insulating cylinder. In this manner, the stator coils can be easily and reliably secured to the stator.
