ABSTRACT:
A changeable focal length photographic camera which may operate in either a real focal length photographing mode or a pseudo focal length photographing mode. Either a normal focal length photographing mode or a close-up photographing mode may be selected. A setting device sets the camera optical system to a longer side in focal length and also sets the object distance to its shortest distance, in the case where the close-up mode is selected. A recording device may be provided to provide an indication on the photographic film when the pseudo focal length photographing mode is selected.
