ABSTRACT:
An electronically controlled camera having a zoom lens has an operational member for driving the zone lens between a tele position and a wide angle position. The zoom lens is moved toward the tele position when the operational member is moved in a normal direction. The zoom lens is moved toward the wide angle position when the operational member is moved in the reverse direction. A taking mode changing mechanism changes taking modes. A display device displays a taking mode. A control mechanism changes the taking mode to another taking mode when the taking mode changing mechanism is operated. A setting time changing device changes the setting time of a manual shutter (or interval) to another setting time under predetermined conditions when the camera is set in a manual shutter mode (or interval) and both the operational member and the taking mode changing mechanism are operated.
