Camera Privacy Shutte
Embodiments of the present disclosure include an apparatus with a camera. A shutter is positioned horizontally in front of the lens of the camera. The shutter is configured to move in front of a lens of the camera and is further configured to move orthogonally to the horizontal axis so as to at least partially obscure the lens of first camera in a closed shutter position. The apparatus further includes a motor positioned horizontally behind the front of the lens of the camera. The motor is configured to move the shutter orthogonally to the horizontal axis between the closed shutter position and an open shutter position.
Image capturing apparatus, control method for image capturing apparatus, and storage medium
An image capturing apparatus that allows a photographer to easily recognize whether or not a blurring generated in an image at the time of image capturing is due to a spherical aberration variable mechanism is provided. The image capturing apparatus, to/from which a lens barrel can be attached/detached, comprising a mounting unit configured to mount the lens barrel, a processor; and a memory storing a program which, when executed by the processor, causes the image capturing apparatus to obtain an adjustment amount of spherical aberration from the lens barrel mounted on the mounting unit, and control a display device to display information about the adjustment amount together with an image obtained through the lens barrel.

ALIGNMENT DETECTION FOR SPLIT CAMERA
An electronic device comprises a camera and a retaining member. The camera includes an objective portion configured to collect light from a subject, a sensor portion reversibly separable from the objective portion, and a computer configured to return an indication of alignment of the objective and sensor portions based on output of one or more optical sensor elements of the sensor portion. The retaining member is configured to couple the objective portion to the sensor portion when the objective and sensor portions are aligned and also when the objective portion is separated from the sensor portion.
MOBILE TERMINAL
A mobile terminal in which an imaging unit is provided on a front surface side and a display unit and a sensor are provided on a back surface side includes a signal processing unit which, from a signal output by the imaging unit, generates information to be displayed by the display unit, and a control unit into which a signal from the sensor is input and which controls the signal processing unit. A display state of the display unit based on the control performed by the control unit includes a first display state for display in a first display region if no detection signal is being input from the sensor, and a second display state for display in a second display region if a detection signal is being input from the sensor.

IMAGING DEVICE, IMAGING METHOD, AND IMAGING PROGRAM
Provided are an imaging device, an imaging method, and an imaging program capable of easily capturing a moving image under an imaging condition desired by a user. In one aspect of the present invention, an imaging device includes an imaging unit and a processor. The processor sets a first imaging parameter applied to moving image data captured by the imaging unit, records first moving image data captured based on the first imaging parameter on a recording device before a first operation by a user of the imaging device is received, sets a second imaging parameter applied to the moving image data in a case where the first operation is received, and records the second moving image data captured based on the second imaging parameter on the recording device in a case where a second operation by the user is received after the reception of the first operation.
Imaging apparatus, electronic device, and method for providing notification of outgoing image-data transmission
An imaging apparatus (100) comprises a signal processor (130) generating image data according to an imaging result of an imaging device (110), and a data transmission status notifying part (180) controlling, when the image data has been output to the outside, a data transmission status displaying part (181) to notify that the image data has been output to the outside.

Decouplable focal distance controller and indicator
When filming a scene, the focal distance of the video camera is often controlled remotely, and can be switched between manual and autofocus modes. To overcome sudden movements in the lens upon reverting to manual mode, and to avoid disrupting a user's grip on the manual control during autofocus, the traditional distance ring indicator is split into separate controller and indicator components. The controller permits manual input, while the indicator tracks the desired distance. In manual mode, the controller and indicator move in unison. In autofocus mode, the indicator tracks a rangefinder input but the controller is not moved. In a hybrid mode, the controller offsets the rangefinder input. In all cases, the position of the lens moves with the indicator.
