Abstract
In the disclosed indicating apparatus, an alarm operates an indicator when a light measuring system measures abnormal lighting. A latch latches the alarm in response to a shutter release to indicate that the shutter is open. A switchover device changes the alarm signal in response to the end of an exposure. According to one embodiment of the invention, the indicator displays the alarm condition while the shutter is open. According to another embodiment of the invention, the indicator assumes a condition constituting a substate of the alarm condition.
