ABSTRACT:
A function display system of a camera including a switch block, an automatic distance measuring circuit, a brightness measuring circuit, a motor driving circuit, and a function display unit. The CPU causes the function display unit to display each camera function in serial order after a power switch is pressed, thereby informing the user of camera functions. When a user presses a flash function or photograph function switch for a predetermined interval, the CPU changes camera sub-functions. The CPU displays a sub-function arranged by a user and a special sub-function arranged by a camera for a longer interval, allowing the user to select the sub-functions more easily. As a result, the camera display system and method provides a camera having improved convenience and efficiency.
