In an image forming apparatus, the auto-focusing process and the photometry system may be coupled such that when a multi-area AF system is set, the setting of the auto-focusing areas of the multi-area AF system is performed in accordance with a selected photometry system. More specifically, when an average metering system is selected as the photometry system, nine AF areas are set such that the AF areas are distributed throughout the whole image. When a center-weighted metering system is selected as the photometry system, four AF areas are set in the vicinity of the middle of the image. When a spot metering system is selected as the photometry system, one AF area is set in the vicinity of the middle of the image.
