Abstract: An exposure device with a shutter operating in such a manner that the size of aperture opening defined by the shutter blades first increases from zero and then starts to decrease in predetermined timing, comprises a mechanism for opening the shutter with the help of an electric motor, while charging a spring as the drive source for closing movement of the shutter, an electromagnet arranged upon current supply to change the driving of the shutter from the opening mechanism to the spring, and a control circuit for controlling the operation of the shutter in such a manner that when taking one picture, the shutter blades reciprocate two times continuously to recycle substantially twice the exposure operation, as the operation of each of the motor and the electromagnet is recycled twice.

Abstract: An electronic camera having an image sensor responsive to a preliminary exposure for producing an output signal, a computing circuit for computing a proper exposure condition on the basis of the signal, and a compensating circuit for compensating the exposure value in accordance with the proper exposure condition is provided with a compensation prohibiting circuit for prohibiting the exposure compensation by the preliminary exposure by taking into account the object condition and the exposure mode.

Abstract: An attachment lens and a camera system, comprising an attachment lens adapted to be attached to the subject side of a camera which is equipped with separate optical openings for the photography system, the finder system, the photometry system, and the colorimetry system. The attachment lens includes an optical element which is on the camera side and which is equipped with a plurality of integrally formed sections facing the optical openings of the camera and having different refractive power configurations, thereby allowing the optical systems to be arranged close to each other.
