Abstract

Radio transmitting and receiving circuits are disclosed which operate wireless without interference and where the main body of a video camera is detached from the view finder. A timing controller applied to a radio transmitting circuit inserts an encoding signal into a video signal having a predetermined horizontal synchronizing signal interval. Meanwhile, a timing controller applied to a radio receiving circuit extracts the encoded video signal and supplies it to a decoder. The decoded signal is read in conjunction with a reference code signal in a code discriminator, and the received signal is displayed in the view finder only if the codes match.
