ABSTRACT:
A camera is disclosed for mounting adjacent an instrument such as a cathode ray tube device for recording an image from the display screen thereof. The camera includes an enclosure with a first opening for cooperation with the display screen of the instrument and a second, large opening across which a standard film cassette is mounted. The film cassette is held in place by a lower stationary holder and an upper attaching device which includes a movable latch. The latch is manually movable between a latched and unlatched position. It is automatically held in the unlatched position after manual movement thereinto, and it automatically moves into the latched position when a film cassette is brought into cooperating engagement with the large camera opening. The camera enclosure includes a floating inner frame having a surface which engages with the inside of the film cassette and which contributes to the positioning of the film cassette. The plane of this inner frame and thus of the film in the cassette is adjustable to ensure sharp focusing over the entire plane of the film. The camera utilizes a folded optics arrangement including a lens disposed between inclined mirrors for directing light from the display device in a zig-zag pattern to the film plane. The optical elements of this arrangement are all part of an optical unit which may be preassembled and adjusted as a unit, installed in the camera enclosure as a unit, and removed therefrom as a unit. Mounting of the camera is accomplished by a lock which extends beyond the customary plastic bezel mount and engages instead with a metal support on the instrument.
