Abstract
A camera having a zooming device for controlling the focal length of a zoom lens in response to a zooming signal, and a print aspect ratio designation device for designating an aspect ratio of a photographic print to be made by trimming an original of a constant size. When the print aspect ratio designation device is given priority over the zooming device, the zooming device is activated conjointly with the print aspect ratio designation device, so as automatically to change the focal length of the zoom lens in accordance with the designation aspect ratio. When the zooming device is given priority over the print aspect ratio designation device, the print aspect ratio is automatically changed conjointly with the zooming device, so as to be matched with the selected focal length, independently of the print aspect ratio designated by the print aspect ratio designation device.
