Photographic apparatus and photographic method using same
First Claim
1. A photographic apparatus having image pickup means for taking in optical images of a photographic subject, performing a photoelectric conversion of the optical images taken in, and outputting the images as electric signals, the electric signals outputted from the image pickup means being processed as photographic images, said apparatus comprising:
- photographing condition varying means for varying, during a series of photographing operations, photographing conditions which are a physical quantity of the apparatus needed for performing the photography, andlimited storage means for storing the electric signals during the series of photographing operations,wherein said photographing condition varying means is photography planning means for setting said photographing conditions based on a predetermined photographing plan, said photography planning means being arranged to vary the photographing conditions during the series of photographing operations based on said photographing plan under conditions imposed by said limited storage means.

Abstract
A photographing apparatus includes a photographing plan memory for setting photographing conditions based on a predetermined photographing plan, a vibration sensor for detecting vibration caused by an explosion of a balloon serving as a photographic subject, and a trigger generating circuit for taking in the timing of detection by the vibration sensor as a trigger. The above photographing plan is prepared beforehand for changing from low-speed photography to high-speed photography in response to the trigger, and changing from high-speed photography to low-speed photography after acquiring “40 frames”. With this plan, the low-speed photography is adopted before and after the balloon explosion, an amount of photographic data tends to be small. Photographs may be taken out within limited photographic data, even with a limited memory capacity. At a moment of balloon explosion, rapid variations due to the explosion may be photographed by high-speed photography with high accuracy.
