摘要

An AF controlling unit ( 83 ) starts an outside light AF operation controlled by an outside AF unit ( 81 ) by a half-pressing of a shutter release button ( 61 ), and a change over between the outside AF operation and a CCDAF operation controlled by a CCDAF unit ( 82 ) is controlled corresponding to an elapsed time t (timer 84 ) from a starting of the operation of the outside light AF operation and a pressing condition (a detection of the half-pressing by a half-pressed detecting unit ( 62 ), the detection of a full-pressing by a full-pressed detecting unit ( 63 ) or a press-in releasing) of a shutter release button ( 61 ) after the starting of the outside light AF operation controlled by the outside AF unit ( 81 ) by the half-pressing of the shutter release button ( 61 ).
