A camera having an autofocus function, independent of a photographing optical system, includes a photographing optical system including synthetic resin lenses and an autofocus optical system, provided independent of the photographing optical system, having at least one synthetic resin lens and a stop decentered in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis of the synthetic resin lens. Thus, in the camera, the shift of the imaging position of the photographing optical system which is caused by an ambient temperature or humidity change is favorably corrected, and good photography can be performed.
