Abstract
A camera system in which information is transmitted between a camera body and an accessory in the form of a current signal is provided. A voltage-to-current converter is provided in at least either one of the camera body and accessory and a current-to-voltage converter is provided in at least the other of the camera body and accessory. Thus, analog information can be transmitted between the camera body and the accessory with high accuracy even if they have separate voltage sources different in level.
