Claims
- 1. An exposure control device for a camera, comprising:
- (a) shutter means for forming an exposure aperture, said shutter means including a first movable blade and a second movable blade separately from each other;
- (b) detection means for detecting movement of said first and second movable blade separately from each other;
- (c) light measuring means for measuring light from an object to be photographed, said means starting the measuring in response to the detection of the movement of said first movable blade by said detection means; and
- (d) judging means for judging the exposure aperture formed by said shutter means in response to the detection of the movement of said second movable blade by said detection means.
- 2. A device according to claim 1, wherein said detection means includes light detection means.
- 3. A device according to claim 2, wherein said light detection means includes a photointerrupter.
- 4. A device according to claim 2, further comprising optical path forming means for enabling said detection means to detect the movement of said first movable blade, said optical path forming means being associated with the movement of said first movable blade.
- 5. A device according to claim 2, further comprising optical path forming means for enabling said detection means to detect the movement of said second movable blade, said optical path forming means being associated with the movement of said second movable blade.
- 6. A device according to claim 1, wherein said judging means includes shut-off means for forcedly closing said shutter means on the basis of the opening amount of said shutter means.
- 7. A device according to claim 6, wherein said shut-off means is arranged to operate when said shutter means reaches a maximum opening amount.
- 8. A device according to claim 1, wherein said judging means includes computation means for controlling a flash photography on the basis of the opening amount of said shutter means.
- 9. A control device for a camera, comprising:
- (a) means for forming an exposure aperture, said exposure aperture forming means including first aperture restricting means and second aperture restricting means;
- (b) control means operative in response to the opening of said exposure aperture forming means;
- (c) first instruction means for instructing said control means to start its operation, said first instruction means being associated with said first aperture restricting means; and
- (d) second instruction means for instructing said control means of the opening amount of said aperture forming means, said second instruction means being associated with said second aperture restricting means.
- 10. A device according to claim 9, wherein said control means includes computation means for controlling a flash photography on the basis of the opening amount of said aperture forming means instructed by said second aperture restricting means.
- 11. An exposure control device for a camera, comprising:
- (a) shutter means for forming an exposure aperture;
- (b) indication means for indicating a flash photography mode;
- (c) detection means for detecting an actual movement of said shutter means; and
- (d) shut-off means for forcedly closing said shutter means in response to an indication of the flash photography mode by said indication means and detection of a maximum exposure amount of said shutter means by said detection means even if a proper exposure amount is not attained.
- 12. A device according to claim 11, wherein said detection means includes light detection means.
- 13. A device according to claim 12, wherein said light detection means includes a photointerrupter.
