ABSTRACT:
An automatic diaphragm aperture control device used with a camera having an objective lens, a diaphragm having a diaphragm aperture, a shutter mechanism and a shutter speed selecting mechanism. The diaphragm control device includes: means for stopping down the diaphragm from its open position prior to the commencement of exposure in association with a shutter releasing operation; light measuring means for measuring the light passing through the objective lens and the diaphragm aperture and for producing an output signal indicative of such measurement; output means providing an output signal commensurate to a shutter speed selected by the shutter speed selecting mechanism; locking means for determining a diaphragm aperture by locking said means for stopping down the diaphragm so as to stop its stopping down operation; correction signal generating means putting out a primary differentiation signal resulting from the time-differentiation of the output signal of at least said light measuring means; and comparator means receiving as input the output signals from said light measuring means, said output means and said correction signal means and operating said locking means when said three signals assume a relationship providing a proper diaphragm aperture. The improvement of the diaphragm control device reside in that said correction signal generating means further puts out a secondary differentiation signal resulting from secondary time differentiation of the output signal of said light measuring means.
