ABSTRACT:
The camera capable of performing divisional photometry according to the present invention includes a photometric sensor which is made up from a plurality of photoelectric conversion sub-elements arranged in close proximity to one another over a predetermined light receiving region in a two dimensional array and which performs divisionally photometry on the photographic field divided into a plurality of regions, an image projection optical system which projects an image of a photographic field upon light receiving surfaces of a proper subset of this plurality of photoelectric conversion sub-elements which occupies a region which is smaller than the predetermined light receiving region, and a calculation device which calculates an exposure value based upon the photometric outputs from the proper subset of the plurality of photoelectric conversion sub-elements.
