Camera having electronic image-pickup capability and capable of performing self-timer photography

摘要

A camera comprises an electronic image-pickup apparatus and a silver-salt photography apparatus for recording a subject image on a silver-salt film. The electronic image-pickup apparatus comprises an area sensor for converting a subject image to an electric signal and an LCD monitor for displaying an image signal generated from the area sensor. The area sensor captures an image synchronously when the silver-salt photography apparatus records the subject image on the silver-salt film. When a self-timer photography mode setup switch is pressed to enable a self-timer photography mode, capturing an image through the area sensor and displaying the captured image on the LCD monitor are repeated during the self-timer photography mode.
