An auto-focus camera includes focus detection means for detecting the focussing state of a photographic lens, reliability discriminating means for discriminating whether the result of the focus detection means is reliable, first drive control means for driving the photographic lens to a position determined from the result of the focus detection means when the reliability discriminating means discriminates that the result is reliable, second drive control means for driving the photographic lens in a predetermined direction when the reliability discriminating means discriminates that the result is unreliable, and means for executing operations necessary for focussing during the predetermined direction driving, such as judgement as to whether a reverse driving is necessary, calculation of the driving amount of the photographic lens to an in-focus position.
