Abstract

A diaphragm of a camera is controlled by a servomotor which is actuated with an output of an amplifier. A bridge circuit including a photodetector which receives light from the object to be photographed is connected with the amplifier so that the imbalance output of the bridge circuit may be amplified by the amplifier and transmitted to the servomotor to actuate the motor in accordance with the imbalance of the bridge circuit. The output of the photodetector is differentiated by a differentiation circuit connected between the photodetector and the amplifier so that the output of the amplifier may be controlled by the differentiated output which represents the rate of variation in the quantity of light received by the photodetector.
