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).
