| 1994 | Invention patented by Keiji Sawanobori on September 22th, 1994. Abstract: A CCD digital camera system has a digital camera and a detachable display device. The digital camera includes an imaging device for receiving an image of an object to be photographed, the imaging device outputting a digital signal corresponding to the received image. The digital camera also includes a data memory for storing a portion of the digital signal and a controller for controlling a transfer of a first portion of the digital signal from the imaging device to the memory. The display device has an image memory for storing image data and a display for displaying an image corresponding to the image data stored in the image memory. The controller monitors one of its inputs for a predetermined signal, the predetermined signal indicating whether the display device is attached to the digital camera. If a presence of the predetermined signal is detected, the controller transfers all of the digital signal to the image memory. |
