Zusammenfassung:A camera system includes a camera unit for capturing still or moving images of an object. The camera unit is adjustable in respect of at least one parameter relevant to the capture of the images based on a measurement signal. A measuring unit captures a distance between the object and the camera unit and includes a laser transceiver for emitting a laser signal and receiving a laser signal reflected by the object. An evaluation unit coupled to the laser transceiver provides the measurement signal. The measurement signal indicates the distance between the object and the camera unit. A lens system has at least two spaced apart lenses. The laser signal emitted by the laser transceiver passes through the lens system. At least one of the lenses is arranged in movable fashion such that the distance between the lenses is variably adjustable parallel to the laser signal transmission direction.
