Abstract
An interval shootable camera is designed in system configuration so that an interval time counting operation for interval shooting is disabled when a shutter of the camera is released during the time counting operation, that a self-timer time is used as an interval time, if the interval shooting operation is started up with the interval time not set, that the interval time is created by interlocking a time counting operation of the first timer for the interval shooting with a time counting operation of the second timer for self-timer shooting, that the interval timer to be set is displayed in hour and minute digits at first on setting the interval time, while the counting status of the interval time set is displayed in the second digit as well as the hour and minute digits after the counting operation of the set interval time starts, that the counting operation of the set interval time is not started when a main switch of the camera is set to OFF, and that if data imprinting is effected, the counting status of the set interval time continues to be displayed just before the interval shooting is started.
