Camera.

摘要

A camera compises a main battery for supplying electric power to a microcomputer; a backup battery for supplying electric power to said microcomputer if the voltage of the main battery is insufficient or said main battery is removed; recording means responsive to said microcomputer for recording chronometric data on a medium provided for recording an image of an object. Said microcomputer is provided both for controlling photographing operation and for producing chronometric data; and includes first control means for controlling a sequence of a photographing operation, detecting means for detecting the insufficiency of the voltage of said main battery or the absence of said battery, generating means for producing the chronometric data, second control means for controlling said recording means to record the chronometric data on the recording medium, and third control means responsive to said detecting means for both controlling the sequence of photographing operation and producing the chronometric data when the voltage of said main battery is sufficient, and for only producing the chronometric data when the voltage of said main battery is insufficient or when said main battery is removed.
