ABSTRACT:
A photographed picture size switchable camera of the present invention can switch photographing optical systems and picture masks through a zoom driving mechanism by means of a switch input from zooming operation and can switch a photographed picture size from a normal size to a panoramic size or half size which is smaller than the normal size. Thus, a good picture can be taken even in a wide angle or telephotographic area which is wider or further than an ordinary zooming region.
