Abstract
A photographic information setting device for a camera of the present invention comprises mode switches for switching a first type exposure mode to a second type exposure mode, and vice versa. The changing rate for altering values relative to exposure in the first type mode is different from that in the second type mode. The changing rate of the second type mode is smaller than that of the first type mode. Values to be set in the second type mode contain values to be set in the first type mode. This device also comprises a microcomputer which shifts a value set under the second type mode to a value set under the first type mode when the second type mode is switched to the first type mode.
