<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To vary a photographing mode of a digital camera after starting release. <P>SOLUTION: A grip button 106 is provided with a grip part of a camera. A circuit board 4 is fixed to a camera member 10 in the grip part, a pressure sensor 1 is mounted on the circuit board 4. A protrusion 106a and the pressure sensor 1 are disposed with a predetermined interval, and the pressure sensor 1 is abutted to the protrusion 106a by pushing the grip button 106. After starting the release, the pressure sensor 1 detects an operating pressure when the grip button 106 is pushed. The number of photographing frames during moving image photographing is varied in response to pressure values detected by the pressure sensor 1. After starting the release, it is possible to switch between the moving image photographing and continuous photographing, vary AF (auto focus) areas, and vary exposure correcting values, etc. in response to the operating pressure to the grip button 106. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
