Photographic information setting device

摘要

The present invention relates to a photographic information setting device having a switch arranged to turn on and off and generate digital data when a stepwise operating member changes its position, wherein the turning on and off of the switch is detected with the help of current supply to the switch to renew the digital data until a desired value of any exposure factor is preset. In the present invention, when the aforesaid stepwise operating member lies in any of click-stopped positions, the current supply to the switch is cut off to prevent wasteful consumption of electrical energy. The number of times of turning on and off of the switch is once stored in a counter, and, upon detection of turning on and off of the switch, a computer reads out the content of the counter so that the renewed digital data are formed in the interior of the computer.
