Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
75 words
A photographic camera for use with an IC card, comprising: an attaching portion for detachably attaching the IC card; means for detecting a data relating to a characteristic of a color of light source which illuminates an object to be photographed; and means for storing the data detected by said detecting means into the detachable IC card attached to said attaching portion in such a manner that the stored data is capable of being altered.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
75 words
A photographic camera for use with an IC card, comprising: an attaching portion for detachably attaching the IC card; means for detecting a data relating to a characteristic of a color of light source which illuminates an object to be photographed; and means for storing the data detected by said detecting means into the detachable IC card attached to said attaching portion in such a manner that the stored data is capable of being altered.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
83 words
A photographic camera for use with a photosensitive film for recording an object image and a recording medium for recording a predetermined data, said camera comprising: a first attaching portion for detachably attaching the recording medium; a second attaching portion for detachably attaching the photosensitive film; means for detecting a data relating to a characteristic of a color of light source which illuminates an object to be photographed; and means for storing the data detected by said detecting means into said recording medium.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
83 words
A photographic camera for use with a photosensitive film for recording an object image and a recording medium for recording a predetermined data, said camera comprising: a first attaching portion for detachably attaching the recording medium; a second attaching portion for detachably attaching the photosensitive film; means for detecting a data relating to a characteristic of a color of light source which illuminates an object to be photographed; and means for storing the data detected by said detecting means into said recording medium.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
21 words
A photographic camera as claimed in claim 2, wherein the stored data in said storing means is capable of being altered.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
98 words
A photographic camera comprising: means for detecting a data relating to a characteristic of a color of light source which illuminates an object to be photographed; an attaching portion for detachably attaching a recording medium; means for discriminating whether or not the recording medium attached to said attaching portion is capable of recording said data; and means for storing the data detected by said detecting means into said recording medium in such a manner that the stored data is capable of being altered when said discriminating means discriminates that said recording medium is capable of recording said data.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
98 words
A photographic camera comprising: means for detecting a data relating to a characteristic of a color of light source which illuminates an object to be photographed; an attaching portion for detachably attaching a recording medium; means for discriminating whether or not the recording medium attached to said attaching portion is capable of recording said data; and means for storing the data detected by said detecting means into said recording medium in such a manner that the stored data is capable of being altered when said discriminating means discriminates that said recording medium is capable of recording said data.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
64 words
A photographic camera comprising: means for detecting a data relating to a characteristic of a color of light source which illuminates an object to be photographed; an attaching portion for detachably attaching a recording medium; and means for non-optically storing the data detected by said detecting means into said recording medium in such a manner that the stored data is capable of being altered.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
64 words
A photographic camera comprising: means for detecting a data relating to a characteristic of a color of light source which illuminates an object to be photographed; an attaching portion for detachably attaching a recording medium; and means for non-optically storing the data detected by said detecting means into said recording medium in such a manner that the stored data is capable of being altered.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
16 words
A photographic camera as claimed in claim 5, wherein said storing means stores the data electrically.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
18 words
A photographic camera as claimed in claim 5, wherein said recording medium records data other than object image.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
16 words
A photographic camera as claimed in claim 5, wherein said recording medium is an IC card.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
17 words
A photographic camera as claimed in claim 5, wherein the stored data is utilized in photo processing.
