Title:
CAMERA AND DEVICE PROVIDED WITH VIBRATION-PROOF FUNCTION
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3792840
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent image deterioration from being caused by the malfunction of a vibration-proof device occurring because a camera is shaken to such an extent that shake correction is impossible by controlling the vibration-proof device according to the difference of operation time between an operation means for starting photographing preparation action and an operation means for starting photographing action.
SOLUTION: The vibration-proof device is controlled according to the difference of the operation time between the operation means for starting the photographing preparation action and the operation means for starting the photographing action. In this camera, an s1 signal for starting the photographing preparation action, that is, photometry and range-finding is generated by half-depressing a release operation member 303, and an s2 signal for starting the photographing action(exposing action) is generated by fully depressing the member 303. Whether the shake having different characteristic is caused by the strong operation of the member 303 is detected according to an operation interval between the half depressing and the full depressing of the member 303, that is, a time interval between the s1 signal and the s2 signal so as not to perform the shake correction.
