Abstract
A shoot command entering switch for a video camera or similar movie camera is implemented by a single action switch and provided with a locking mechanism. The switch is allowed to enter a shoot start command and a shoot end command in the camera by a single manipulation. When the locking mechanism is actuated, the switch is held in a position for continuous shooting and therefore operable in the same manner as a double action switch. Such a construction facilitates the manipulations for ordinary or short-time shooting and those for long-time shooting which may be performed as desired.
