摘要:
An auto focus detecting device capable of focus detection by a contrast detecting method and a phase-difference detecting method. In accordance with a condition of an object, either one of detecting method is selected, and then an amount of defocus is calculated based on a result obtained by the selected detecting method.

An apparatus has an automatic focus detection device. The automatic focus detection device detects a focus condition of a taking lens by using a plurality of detection areas. These detection areas are displayed on a finder. The plurality of detection area are displayed on the finder in a specific order according to a situation of the camera by throwing a switch designating a detection area.

摘要:
A camera is operable in one among a first photographing mode, a second photographing mode and a third photographing mode, and is further selectively operable in one of a plurality of photographing states when the camera operates in the first mode. The camera includes a first manual operation member, a first element responsive to an operation of the first manual operation member for cyclically selecting one of the first, second and third photographing modes in this order, a second manual operation member, and a second element responsive to an operation of the second manual operation member for selecting one of the plurality of photographing states in the first photographing mode. The camera further includes an element that is responsive to the operation of the first manual operation member for changing a photographing mode of the camera from the first photographing mode to the third photographing mode without passing through the second photographing mode when the camera operates in the selected state in the first mode.
摘要:
Where a person is being photographed, for example, both light from the person located at closer range and light from the background located farther away enter the photodetector elements. Where the contrast of the background is high, the rate at which the information from the background contributes to the focus detection becomes larger, which hinders accurate focus detection with regard to the person. In this case, the focus detection device divides a predetermined focus area into smaller areas and detects focus condition in each smaller area.
摘要:
A focus detecting device comprising a taking lens for photographing an object, a relay optical system for re-forming an object image via the taking lens, and a detecting means having first and second sensor pairs for detecting the image re-formed by the relay optical system, wherein focus detection is accomplished using one sensor of the first sensor pair and one sensor of the second sensor pair.
摘要:
A camera includes a CCD line sensor divided into a plurality of blocks and a plurality of monitors provided near each of the divided blocks and sensing the amount of received light corresponding to each block. The storage of charge in each block of the CCD is controlled based on the amount of the light received by the monitor. Each block corresponds to each part of an object in a finder of the camera.
摘要:
Camera comprises a focus detecting section for performing an object distance measurement, a flash for illuminating the object and controller for control the camera. The flash is activated to emit auxiliary light so as to assist a focus detection when a focus detection is performed by the focus detecting section, and is activated to emit light for illuminating the object during an exposure of photographing. Also, camera is capable of a self-timer photographing, and indicates the self-timer photographing by emitting the flash light during the self-timer operation. The flash light is used both as the auxiliary light for a focus detection and light for indication of the self-timer operation.
