ABSTRACT:
A camera comprises a shutter release that is manually depressible to initiate picture-taking, and a delayed action device for automatically depressing the shutter release to initiate picture-taking after a predetermined interval of time has elapsed. The shutter release has an engageable portion that can be engaged to depress the shutter release. The delayed action device has a setting piece that is movable in a forward direction to a cocked position to move an engaging portion of the setting device from a closer side to a farther side of the engageable portion of the shutter release and is returned in a reverse direction with the engaging portion in engagement with the farther side to automatically depress the shutter release. The engaging portion of the delayed action device is constructed to allow the shutter release to be manually depressed when the setting device is in the cocked position, in order to obviate return of the setting device in the reverse direction to automatically depress the shutter release.
