Abstract
An electronic camera for providing a photographic quality still print includes a viewfinder display in which the scene to be photographed may be viewed for composition at a standard television transfer frame rate without the provision of additional buffer memories. The electronic camera comprises an integral charge coupled device (CCD) sensing configuration which operates to sense the image to be recorded in a preview mode of operation and to provide a real time digital buffer memory during a succeeding review mode of operation in order to display the recorded scene in the viewfinder at a standard television frame transfer rate.
