ABSTRACT:
An exposure compensation device of a camera used jointly with an electronic flash has a plurality of exposure compensation modes and electronic flash modes preset to each of the exposure compensation modes. In each exposure compensation mode, a compensation value for compensating an exposure value and an electronic flashing point is set. When an exposure compensation mode is requested by an external operation, the exposure compensation device selects a required exposure compensation mode based on results of light measurement and distance measurement, compensates an exposure value and an electronic flashing point corresponding to the results of light measurement and distance measurement by means of the compensation value of the selected exposure compensation mode, and sets an electronic flash mode corresponding to the selected exposure compensation mode. Therefore, an operation of exposure compensation using an electronic flash is made easier, and, the contents of exposure compensation using an electronic flash is changed automatically.
