1. I claim an invention which is specialized for use in a low cost, low security environment with both unattended and attended operation with means for specialized post-crime, suspect identification using digital, audio/video security recording which is composed of the elements of:

  • a camera body, a closed loop servo-motor controlled passively auto-focused camera lens optimized for motion video use, furthermore with means for use as a gain-box (G-box), a closed loop servo-motor controlled passively auto-focused camera lens optimized for still photographic use, furthermore with means for use as a gain-box (G-box), a transmissive motion sensor, a micro-processor with means for output compressed digital data stream final assembly, furthermore with means for very rapid closed loop servo-motor control processing of the H-boxes and the G-boxes, furthermore with means for suspect motion computer modeling, peripheral input/output (I/O) bus and timing circuitry, micro-processor input/output I/O peripheral chips, a passively focused Moving Picture Expert'"'"'s Group X like (MPEG X-like) optimized both infrared and visible light receptive charge coupled device (MPEG-like CCD) which is used with means as a hold-box (H-box) signal generator for closed loop servo motor control algorithms executed in the micro-processor used in lens servo-motor control, a passively focused Joint Photographer'"'"'s Expert'"'"'s Group like (JPEG-like) optimized visible light receptive charge coupled device (JPEG CCD) which is used with means as a Hold-box (H-box) signal generator for closed loop servo motor control algorithms executed in the micro-processor used in lens servo-motor control, a high rate analog to digital converter (ADC) with means for converting the MPEG X-like charge coupled device (CCD) output analog audio and video signals to digital with means for micro-processor bus input into the dedicated digital compression circuitry, furthermore with means to act as a hold-box (H-box) for closed loop servo-motor MPEG X-like lens control, a low rate analog to digital converter (ADC) with means for converting the JPEG X-like charge coupled device (CCD) output analog video signals to digital with means for micro-processor bus input into the dedicated digital compression circuitry, furthermore with means to act as a hold-box. (H-box) for closed loop servo-motor JPEG X-like lens control, a very low rate analog to digital converter (ADC) with means for converting the two channels of analog audio from a line amplified micro-phone into MPEG X-like digitized audio with means for micro-processor bus input into the dedicated digital compression circuitry, a MPEG X like specialized digital compression circuit, a JPEG X like specialized digital compression circuit, dynamic random access memory (DRAM) for temporary data store with means for holding large 6 mega pixel JPEG X-like frames, electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) for permanent computer program store, static RAM (SRAM) for small amounts of fast micro-processor program variables storage, a first in first out buffer (FIFO), a removable permanent memory storage device for digital data with first example means of a digital video tape cassette, a power supply, which elements are electronically and mechanically combined together into a specialized, hybrid simultaneously recorded JPEG like and MPEG X-like digital audio/video camera, which furthermore simultaneously produces a high data rate audio/video stream of MPEG X like compressed digital video signals, and also at the same time a very low rate much higher resolution still photograph stream of JPEG X like still suspect photographs with first application means for post-crime suspect identification and capture, and with second application means for professional filming for commercial entertainment movies and shows.
