Abstract
In a camera according to the present invention, a parallax correction indicator for normal-size photography and a parallax correction indicator for panorama-size photography, which are formed on an image formation plane of a finder optical system, are separately displayed in a finder image display screen set in N photographing mode and in a finder image display screen set in P photographing mode. Therefore, using the camera or the present invention, the finder display will not be complicated but be easy to see during N size photography and panorama-size photography alike. This reduces occurrence of a photographic error.
