Imaging apparatus, imaging method, and program

Provided are an imaging apparatus, an imaging method, and a program capable of accurately and simply controlling a movement sensitivity of an index displayed on a finder monitor to a sensitivity desired by a user by using a touch panel installed on a rear monitor. The imaging apparatus (10) has a finder that includes the finder monitor (13), the touch panel (31) that receives a swipe operation for moving the index, and an image processing unit (24). The image processing unit (24) includes a sensitivity setting unit that sets a first sensitivity for coarsely moving the index by the swipe operation or a second sensitivity for finely moving the index by detecting a contact operation to the touch panel in the swipe operation, and a movement control unit that moves the index on the basis of the swipe operation on the touch panel and the sensitivity set by the sensitivity setting unit.

Device for stabilizing video equipment
20230066026 · 2023-03-02 ·

The invention relates to handheld devices for stabilizing film and video recording equipment (film cameras, video cameras and other recording devices), which compensate for shaking and vibrations from the hands or shoulder of the operator when filming in motion and allow the smooth movement of video equipment. A device for stabilizing video equipment comprises a base and a movable platform connected to one another by at least one hinge mechanism that is configured on the basis of the relationship expressed in formula (I), where x is the distance from the upper horizontal surface of the platform to the point of intersection of the axes of a hinge mechanism; K≤0.5; Vi=ai×bi×ci; ai is the length of a three-dimensional parallelepiped; bi is the height of a three-dimensional parallelepiped; ci is the width of a three-dimensional parallelepiped; n is the total number of hinge mechanisms. The technical result lies in reducing the dimensions and weight of the stabilizing device.
