ABSTRACT:
A spring servo type aperture control device in a camera having mounted thereon a lens comprises: an aperture mechanism including an aperture blade and determining the aperture by varying the position of said aperture blade, an aperture lever connected to said aperture mechanism and displaceable between a first position for rendering said aperture blade to an open aperture and a second position for rendering said aperture blade to a minimum aperture, and a member for biasing said aperture lever toward said second position, said aperture control device comprising: a control member engaged with said aperture lever and movable between a third position and a fourth position corresponding to said first position and said second position, respectively, a spring member storing a drive force by shutter charge and giving forth the stored drive force by shutter release, a cam member disposed between said control member and said spring member and rotatable by the drive force of said spring member upon shutter release to drive said control member at a uniform velocity from said third position to said fourth position, said aperture lever stopping down the aperture in response to the movement of said control member from said third position to said fourth position, metering means including an electromagnetic means for blocking the movement of said control member when the quantity of light transmitted through the aperture being stopped down has reached a predetermined value, and a member adapted to return said control member to said third position after completion of exposure.
