ABSTRACT:
A pre-winding control device of a camera includes a sensor for detecting a predetermined length of a flimstrip, a film drive device for pre-winding the film strip before exposures and for rewinding the film strip after exposures, and a pulse generator for generating pulses, one for every advancement of a predetermined length of the film strip. The control device is characterized by a detector for detecting time intervals at which the pulses are generated, a time interval setting circuit for setting an interruption time interval based on the time intervals for which the film drive device is allowed to be left interrupted, and a disabling circuit for disabling the film drive device when the sensor detects no pulse for at least the interruption time interval. The interruption time interval is given as an average of a predetermined number of the time intervals multiplied by a coefficient between 2 and 5.
