Abstract
A mode selecting and displaying control apparatus for a camera according to the invention sets a plurality of marks representing set modes in a display state on an LCD panel and sets marks representing other modes in a non-display state while a first switch for setting modes of the camera, e.g., operation modes and flash modes, in a changeable state, is in a non-operated state. By operating a second switch for changing the modes one by one while the first switch is in an operated state, the plurality of marks in a display state are sequentially caused to flicker in accordance with a mode to be set, while marks representing other modes are set in a display state, thereby performing a mode changing operation.
