 Exposure time control - Patent 4140391
The exposure control of claim 10 wherein the digital processor means changes the digital counts of color channels whose exposures are not completed when a filter means terminates exposure of one of the color channels, the changes of digital counts compensating for unwanted absorption of light of the color channels whose exposures are not completed.
A critical portion of a photographic printer is the exposure time control, which controls the duration of the exposure of the photosensitive medium in order to assure that the image on the photosensitive medium is properly exposed.
In one preferred embodiment, the determination of the digital counts and the clock control numbers is based upon the premise that the intensity times the time that the photosensitive medium is exposed must be a constant regardless of the density of the film negative.

Note that the timing support augments the behavior of the elements only with respect to the time during which the element is active or visible.
Timed elements within the container scope will be relative (perhaps indirectly in the case of beginWith/beginAfter usage) to this new timing context, excepting elements defined with beginEvent.
For time containers, it means that if any element within the contained time scope falls out of sync that the time container can redefine sync to the parent timeline (this effectively defines the scope of the resync propagation).

 Cross-Time Self-Control
When the mind models the ego-entity and its control coherently and vividly, the ego dies as a helmsman; the sense of being a self-governing entity profoundly changes.
But the control agent is only a secondary controller, whose stream of control actions is ultimately driven by the primary driver, which is the block universe.
Given the inherent inability to secure self-control over time, due to the inability to reach across time and due to the fact that one's future actions are already defined at all future points in time, one might begin to urgently wish to secure self-determination to forcefully extend self-control over one's near-future actions.

 Shutter time control circuit
However, as intermediate shutter times are simply discarded at a time of manual operation in said system, it has such shortcoming that only errors in the positive direction of voltage corresponding to a manually set shutter time is allowed but errors in the negative direction can not be allowed.
Therefore, at the same time the preset shutter time will be set at the counter, the T-flip-flop 42 will be set to "1", thus errors with a range of -4/8 to +3/8 steps may be allowed in a resistance value of a shutter time resistor as in the case of the example shown in FIG.
Since the operation from a time the analog voltage from the tap electrode 2a selected by the brush 2b is A/D converted till a time such digital value as corresponding to the preset shutter time is formed at the counter 35 are same as in the example shown in FIG.
