PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a camera quickly performing focusing without interrupting imaging even when the movement in the far-near direction of a subject is large in consecutive imaging performing imaging surface phase difference AF operation.SOLUTION: A camera includes: an imaging optical system (2), first focus detection means (7), second focus detection means (13), and focus detection control means (101) for performing a focus operation by driving at least one of the lenses of the imaging optical system (2) by the focus detection signals obtained from the first or second focus detection means. Control means is provided performing control such that when, during consecutive imaging, the deviation of a focal point of more than a prescribed value is detected during the focus operation by the focus detection signal from the first focus detection means (7), a focus operation is switched to the focus operation by a focus detection signal from the second focus detection means(13), and after focusing by the second focus detection means (13), the focus operation is switched to the focus operation from the focus detection signal by the first focus detection means (7).SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 |
