          Appeal No. 96-0139                                                          
          Application 08/037,683                                                      


          switches 8 for controlling zooming and exposure adjustment of               
          the camera as                                                               
          well as the start/stop, rewinding, fast forwarding,                         
          reproducing and temporary stop operations of the recording                  
          deck (col. 2, lines 1-22).  The detachable unit can be used as              
          a remote control device when it is connected to the camera                  
          body via a cable 12, as shown in Figure 2, in which case the                
          LCD display 7 still functions as a viewfinder (col. 2, line 65              
          to col. 3, line 5).  In camera body 1, the output of the CCD                
          imager 15 is fed to a matrix (not shown), which generates                   
          color difference signals and luminance signals (col. 2, lines               
          33-38), which are applied to color coder 16, which outputs a                
          video signal (col. 2, lines 38-40).  In signal processing                   
          circuit 17 this signal is converted to a recording format,                  
          such as FM (col. 2, lines 40-44).  When the viewfinder is in                
          operation, color coder 16a in the camera body converts the FM               
          signal back to color difference and luminance signals for                   
          application via cable 12 to detachable control section 9,                   
          where those signals are converted by YC signal processor 21                 
          into video signals suitable for application to LCD driver 22                
          (col. 2, line 53 to col. 3, line 5).  Though Maemori does not
