Abstract

See full text

A camcorder is equipped with a head mounted viewfinder that is visible to only one eye of the camera operator. The viewfinder is mounted on an adjustable head support and positioned directly in front of one eye of the camera operator so that the camera operator sees the recorded scene viewed by the video camera with the eye and is free to view the remaining surroundings with the other eye. A counter-balanced staff supports the camcorder in such a way that the staff and camcorder can be held in one hand. The single eye viewfinder arrangement cooperates with the counter balanced camera support staff to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of the television camera operator and to minimize undesirable side effects such as camera wobble.
