Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This utility model relates to an instant camera with digital display function. [Background Technology]

[0002] Current instant cameras typically include status display devices, such as a remaining film quantity display, an aperture recommendation indicator for the shooting scene, and a low battery warning light. However, these displays are relatively primitive, unclear, and lack intuitiveness, resulting in a poor user experience. For example, the remaining film quantity display is usually a mechanical display, which suffers from poor visibility, making it difficult to see in low-light conditions, and is also prone to mechanical malfunctions that can cause errors in the displayed film quantity. Similarly, the aperture recommendation indicator for the shooting scene uses multiple LEDs in different locations to display different recommended aperture levels. These displays are distributed across various parts of the camera, making them inconvenient for the user to observe. [Utility Model Content]

[0038] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of this utility model are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a specific posture (as shown in the attached figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. Furthermore, descriptions involving "preferred," "second-best," etc., in this utility model are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined as "preferred" or "second-best" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.

[0039] like Figure 1-3As shown, an instant camera with digital display function includes a body 1. The body 1 has a body groove 11, and a digital display component 2 is disposed in the body groove 11. The body groove 11 is covered with a cover 3. A light-transmitting area 31 is provided on the cover 3 at a position corresponding to the digital display component 2. The display surface of the digital display component 2 has at least one of the following: a power display area 21, a remaining sheet of photo paper display area 22, a flash charging status display area 23, and an aperture recommended setting prompt area 24. This makes the status display of the instant camera clearer, more intuitive, less prone to malfunction, and provides a better user experience.

[0040] As described above, the remaining sheet display area 22 of the digital display component 2 described in this case is used to display the remaining sheet quantity of the instant camera. The integrated digital display enhances the display effect, allowing users to view the image in different brightness environments, and also avoids the problem of incorrect quantity display caused by mechanical failure.

[0041] As described above, the aperture recommendation setting area 24 set in the digital display component 2 of this case is used to display the aperture recommendation setting icon, so that the user can more clearly and intuitively grasp the current aperture recommendation setting of the instant camera.

[0042] As described above, the power display area 21 of the digital display component 2 described in this case is used to display the power status icon, so that users can more clearly and intuitively grasp the power status of the instant camera.

[0043] As described above, the flash charging status display area 23 of the digital display component 2 described in this case is used to display the flash charging status icon, so that users can more clearly and intuitively grasp the flash charging status of the instant camera.

Thus, during user operation, the digital display component 2 displays corresponding information in each display area according to the overall working status of the instant camera. This integrates the low battery warning function, remaining sheet count display function, flash charging status display function, and aperture recommendation setting indicator function of the instant camera onto the digital display component 2, allowing users to quickly and intuitively understand the overall working status of the instant camera, greatly improving the user experience.

[0045] As described above, in specific implementations, the digital display component 2 is disposed on the top, back, front, left, or right side of the camera body 1. This allows the digital display component 2 to be positioned at different locations on the camera body 1 according to the internal layout of the instant camera, and also allows its position to be set according to different users' body usage habits. In practical applications, the digital display component 2 is generally disposed on the top or back of the camera body 1, allowing users to intuitively view the displayed information without needing to flip the camera to check the current aperture recommendation setting, thus facilitating user operation.

[0046] As described above, the battery level display area 21, the remaining sheet count display area 22, the flash charging status display area 23, and the aperture recommended setting indicator area 24 can be arranged in different combinations and different sorting layouts on the display surface of the digital display component 2.
