ABSTRACT:
In an autofocus camera, at least one lens of a photographing lens system serves as a focus lens which is reciprocatively moved by a drive unit along a predetermined optical path. A detector detects a position of the focus lens in the lens system. On the basis of the detected position, a calculator calculates a correction amount of a spherical aberration of the lens system. A controller controls the drive unit on the basis of the calculated correction amount so as to cause the drive unit to move the focus lens to a position where the spherical aberration of the lens system is corrected.
