ABSTRACT:
A camera includes both film for recording an image and a solid state image sensor. The solid state sensor determines the brightness level after the flash has been fired in order to determine whether enough light has reached the camera for a proper exposure. If insufficient light is returned from the flash, as in a "stadium" shot, the camera indicates either to the operator or to the printer that this problem exists. Appropriate steps may then be taken either by repeating the shot or by adjusting the printing process.
