Abstract
An integrated broadcast/auxiliary camera system includes a broadcast camera and an auxiliary camera. The broadcast camera may capture a first image of a scene, wherein operational parameters of the broadcast camera including a broadcast focus distance, a broadcast focal length, a broadcast pan angle and a broadcast tilt angle are operator controlled. The auxiliary camera may capture a second image of the scene, the second image different from the first image. A controller may automatically control operational parameters of the auxiliary camera including an auxiliary focus distance, an auxiliary focal length, an auxiliary pan angle and an auxiliary tilt angle based on the operational parameters of the broadcast camera.
