ABSTRACT:
An aperture auxiliary brake control device in a camera in which a speed slowing device operates in association with the lens stopping-down operation. The operation of the speed slowing device is stopped by interrupting the supply of current to an aperture control magnet to selectively employ a shutter priority automatic exposure in which an aperture value control is obtained, an aperture priority automatic exposure, or a manual exposure. The aperture auxiliary brake control device comprises a brake section for braking a brake disk secured to a part of the speed slowing device by interrupting the supply of current to an auxiliary brake magnet. An auxiliary brake magnet control circuit is employed so that only in the shutter priority automatic exposure mode the brake disk is braked before the operation of said speed slowing device is ended. In the aperture priority automatic exposure or in the manual exposure modes, the supply of current to the auxiliary brake magnet is interrupted after a period of time elapses required to stop down the lens to a minimum aperture value thereof. Hence, following this period an auxiliary brake is not applied.
