To provide a camera configured to be supported by the hands of a photographer on the bottom surface of the body thereof whose operability is improved by allowing various settings to be easily made with the camera body supported reliably and allowing a set value to be stored and retrieved with a small number of operation members, a configuration is provided which includes a grip portion protruding in a direction orthogonal to an optical axis of a photographic optical system provided in a predetermined position of a lateral surface of the body of the camera and an operating member for allowing input of information to cause execution of a predetermined operation, the operating member being provided in the vicinity of the grip portion. There is further provided a setting member for setting a desired set value, a set value storing member for storing data representing desired set values which can be set with the setting member in advance, a set value retrieving member for arbitrarily reading the data stored in advance with the set value storing member instead of the set value set with the setting member and for setting a set value based on the same and control unit for controlling the set value storing member and the set value retrieving member such that they can be operated with a single operating member.
