Abstract
A photometric device that makes improved accuracy of screen photometry possible is disclosed. The photometric device includes a screen component that transmits a luminous flux from a subject field, a light emitting indicating device that is placed in the vicinity of the screen component and that indicates light emitting photographic information, and a photometry component that receives the transmitted luminous flux and outputs the received luminous flux as a first photometric value of the subject field. The photometric device is equipped with an adjustment device that determines a second photometric value based on a higher order or non-linear function of the first photometric value that differs from the first photometric value by a photometric value adjustment amount to compensate for the emitted light of the light emitting indicating device.
