PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an excellent exposure setting system that can easily realize exposure control depending on an object. SOLUTION: A camera consisting of an optical lens and an image pickup device that converts an optical image captured through the optical lens into an electric signal and provides an output of the signal, has a configuration where a remote distance focus lens capable of focusing only an object at a remote distance and a medium distance focus lens capable of focusing both a near distance object and a remote distance object is switchable in the case of picking up an image of the near distance object. The camera compares images picked up by the two lenses, that is, the remote distance focus lens and the medium distance focus lens to detect the out of focus of the object in the picked-up image and to specify the position of the object from the out of focus. The exposure setting system can easily set the exposure of the object by using the luminance of the specified object as a photometric value. |
