               1.  A photographic device capable of placing captions and              
          logos onto images recorded using said photographic device,                  
          comprising:                                                                 
               a camera body operable to record an image onto a                       
          photographic media;                                                         
               an electronic writing pad mounted on said camera body, on              
          which a user inputs information to be superimposed onto said                
          image; said writing pad being operable to accept a sketch                   
          drawn by user;

          cells;                                                                      
               a processor for sampling said information on said writing              
          pad for converting said information into display signals which              
          display the information;
