The movement of the recording appts. (1) as well as the main parts, e.g. focussing lens, zoom, inclination setter etc., are initiated by the start signal from the first recorded movement sequence and their process is also stored as are the linkage signals produced during the current movement sequence. This allow a later movement sequence to be recorded and stored according to a previously selected one. A sensor is provided for registering the appts. movements as well as the motor drives for focus, zoom pivoting etc. This sensor is coupled to a computer (4) connected to a time pick-up (3) responding to a start signal generator (2). A mixer (7) is coupled to the image signal memory (6). USE - Comparing similar movements occuring at different times, e.g for technical sports studies for high jumping and ski-ing.
