Abstract
A camera provided with a binocular stereoscopic finder which stereoscopically displays the relationship between a subject and the focal range. The binocular stereoscopic finder is provided with a pair of foreground reticles with a pair of foreground marking members for indicating the position of the near distance of the depth of field attached thereto and a pair of background reticles a pair of background marking members for indicating the far distance of the depth of field attached thereto. Each pair of reticles are moved in the horizontal direction in accordance with a preset stop value or a preset object distance. Since the depth of field is stereoscopically displayed in the finder by a foreground mark and a background mark, it is possible to judge the focal range in a three-dimensional image. The present invention is also applicable to a fixed focus and fixed stop camera.
