ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a video camera having a stroboscopic flash, and a method of photographing a subject with the video tape recorder. The video camera includes a strobe device for illuminating the subject with a flashing light, a movie photographing trigger serving as a movie photographing button, a still photographing trigger for initiating still photography, an image processing unit for energizing the movie photographing trigger so as to measure light quantity from the subject during a movie photography operation, and a control unit for determining based on information about the light quantity measured by the image processing unit whether or not strobe photography is required during a still photography operation. According to the above construction, the strobe photography can automatically and immediately be performed upon the still photography operation when the still photography is initiated in the course of the movie photography. When it is desired to still-photograph the subject with the automatic flashing light of the strobe device, the level at which the strobe device has been charged can reliably be confirmed by using a display unit in a viewfinder.
