Abstract
In a camera integrated with a VTR, a hotographing method by use of a self timer is disclosed. This method comprises the steps of: setting a recording standby state; supplying to a display section a repetitive signal for allowing the display section to be alternately repetitively lit on and off by operating a self timer operating element; supplying a light-on signal to the display section when a predetermined time has passed to thereby light on the display section, supplying an operation signal to the VTR section, cancelling the camera recording standby state, and thereby starting a recording; and stopping the supply of the light-on signal to the display section after the elapse of a predetermined time after the recording was started to thereby light off the display section, stopping the supply of the operation signal to the display section, and thereby returning to the camera recording standby state.
