Schematic of an omnidirectional camera with two mirrors: 1. Camera 2. Upper Mirror 3. Lower Mirror 4. "Black Spot" 5. Field of View (light blue) In photography, an omnidirectional camera (from "omni", meaning all), also known as 360-degree camera, is a camera having a field of view that covers approximately the entire sphere or at least a full circle in the horizontal plane.
The term camera is also used, for devices producing images or image sequences from measurements of the physical world, or when the image formation cannot be described as photographic: Acoustic camera which makes sound visible in three dimensions
Introduced in 1995 it was the first consumer digital camera with a color LCD display. This allowed for the user to point the camera at themself while viewing the LCD display. Perhaps the first front-facing camera on a hand-held device was the Game Boy Camera, released in Japan in February 1998. The Game Boy Camera was an attachment for Game Boy ...
Digital Still Camera (DSC), such as the Sony DSC cameras, is a type of camera that does not use a reflex mirror. DSCs are like point-and-shoot cameras and are the most common type of cameras, due to their comfortable price and its quality. [citation needed] Here are a list of DSCs: List of Sony Cyber-shot cameras
A digital single-lens reflex camera (digital SLR or DSLR) is a digital camera that combines the optics and mechanisms of a single-lens reflex camera with a solid-state image sensor and digitally records the images from the sensor. The reflex design scheme is the primary difference between a DSLR and other digital cameras.
The first digital rangefinder camera commercially marketed was the Epson R-D1 (released in 2004), followed by the Leica M8 in 2006. [16] They were some of the first digital lens-interchangeable cameras without a reflex mirror, but they are not considered mirrorless cameras because they did not use an electronic viewfinder for live preview, but, rather, an optical viewfinder.

The camera under test senses a real image of the virtual image of the target, and the sensed image is displayed on a monitor. [9] Monitor display of sensed image from the camera under test. The sensed image, which includes the target, is displayed on a monitor, where it can be measured.
With a mirror, of similar size to the film, held at 45°, it projects an upright image onto a focusing ground glass screen viewable from above. The camera can be then be held steady at waist level. Although the viewfinder lens was similar to the camera lens, the optical quality was less important and so the cost is reduced.
