ABSTRACT:
An automatic focusing device, in which a focus lens is driven by tracking an object-in-motion to obtain an in-focus state, based upon a focus prediction that is executed from repeated distance measurements. In-focus indicating is executed only when the focus lens is in the in-focus condition and the object-in-motion is moving at a speed that is less than a predetermined speed.
