ABSTRACT:
A camera adapted to obtain a correct exposure, even with a film having a film sensitivity outside an automatic setting range of the camera. A film sensitivity outside the automatic setting range of the camera is stored, or canceled by manipulating a manipulation member in a manipulation order that differs from that used during photography. Further, two manipulation members may be used in a combined manipulation order that differs from that used during photography. For example, a zoom up and a zoom down switch may be used in conjunction with a main switch to set a higher and a lower, respectively, film sensitivity. Additionally, the setting may be canceled by manipulating the zoom up and zoom down switches simultaneously. A display device which normally displays photographic information regarding the camera, temporarily displays the manually set film sensitivity.
