Digital camera with front and rear screens

Abstract

With the advancement of photographic equipment, there is a current situation where images taken without consent, including images of those being photographed against their will, are being taken and disseminated. Furthermore, in educational settings, restrictions on photography are necessary to protect children and students from malicious photographers, and these restrictions may also apply to the recording of normal educational activities. Therefore, we provide a digital camera with front and rear screens that ensures privacy and appropriateness of photography by clearly indicating the situation and content that the photographer intends to photograph to those being photographed and those around them. [Solution] By placing display units on both the front 11 and the back of the camera housing 10, the situation and content that the photographer is trying to capture are clearly indicated to the subject and the surroundings, thereby eliminating inappropriate shooting.
