Abstract
In a photographing apparatus such as a single lens reflex camera, metering photoelectric conversion elements are provided in the optical path of an imaging optical system or a finder optical system and the line width of the pattern forming the elements is set to a width undiscernable by the human eye. Thus, with such metering photoelectric conversion elements, no irregularity of the quantity of amount is caused in the image observed through the finder or the image photographed.
