ABSTRACT:
An exposure calculating device including a device for automatically adjusting a focusing condition of an object of lens to produce an in-focus signal when the objective lens has been adjusted to its in-focus position, a device for producing a lock signal in response to a manual operation independent of a shutter-release operation, the lock signal being effective even if the in-focus signal has not been produced. The exposure calculating device further includes an apparatus for measuring brightness of an object field to produce brightness information corresponding to the measured brightness, a device for storing the brightness information, an apparatus for controlling the storing device to store the brightness information in response to the in-focus signal or the lock signal, and a device for interrupting the operation of the controlling device when the brightness information has been stored in response to the lock signal even if the in-focus signal is produced.
