Abstract
In an automatic focusing camera having a shutter control member for controlling the shutter mechanism and a focusing member for regulating the position of the camera lens, an actuating member is provided for controlling the focusing member and the shutter control member. The actuating member is a single slidably mounted element which is movable between a charged position and a rest position and is biased into the rest position. The actuating member actuates the focusing member in the initial stage of movement from the charged position to the rest position and actuates the shutter control member in the final stage of the movement to the rest position.
