ABSTRACT:
A digital exposure meter display circuit for a camera includes a first oscillator 1 whose output controls the charging of an integrating capacitor 28 from a constant current source 3. When the capacitor charge reaches the level of a reference voltage from source 7, as detected by a first comparator 6, a counter 10 is enabled and begins to register clock pulses from a second oscillator 8 through an AND gate 31. When the capacitor charge subsequently reaches the output level of a light measuring circuit 4, which is proportional to the apex value of the sensed object brightness, a second comparator 5 disables the AND gate and enables an LED display 12 supplied with the decoded counter value.
