Abstract
A photographing information setting apparatus for a camera has a capability of improving the operativity in setting photographing information by displaying all of the photographing information or a part thereof contained in a photographing information group when such a group is selected by an information group selecting device. In selecting photographing information, a photographing information group containing exposing modes, shutter speeds, and others is selected by the information group selecting device and at least two pieces of photographing information contained in this photographing information group are displayed in a display. For example, when a photographing information group regarding exposing modes is selected, the exposing modes PM, P, S, A and M are displayed in the display. Then, when a photographing information is further set by an information setting device from the selected photographing information group, such a photographing information is displayed in the display in a state where this information is distinguished from the other pieces of photographing information. In other words, the standard automatic exposing mode P is displayed in the display in such a manner if it is set, for example.
