Abstract
A camera having an apparatus for correcting parallax includes viewfinder optical system for viewing an object. A shooting lens system for photographing the object is disposed such that the optical axis of the shooting lens system is different from the optical axis of the viewfinder optical system. The shooting lens system includes a correcting lens group such that image shift is accomplished by decentering the correcting lens group. A focusing lens group, spaced from the correcting lens group, is moveable along the optical axis of the shooting lens system. Parallax that is created by changes in the position of the object is corrected by accomplishing an image shift by the shooting lens system.
