Abstract
A mode selector member and a recess are disposed in a relatively close relation on the front face of a camera to enable a finger of the user that operates the mode selector member to be readily transferred from the member to the recess, after the member is moved to a selected position. Thus inadvertent movement of the mode selector member from the selected position to an erroneous position, during picture-taking, will be prevented.
