ABSTRACT:
In a magnification adjusting mechanism, preparatory movement position calculating means utilizes a current position where an optical system is positioned at present, and a target position for the optical system which corresponds to an aimed magnification inputted by a magnification inputting means, to calculate a preparatory movement position between the current position and said target position, and optical system drive control means controls optical system driving means in such a manner that, when a magnification is inputted by the magnification inputting means, the optical system is moved to a preparatory movement position calculated by the preparatory movement position calculating means, and that, when a final magnification is determined, the optical system is moved to the target position, whereby even when a magnification is set again because it is unacceptable, the optical system is quickly moved to the destination.
