Abstract
A camera with a magnetic recording device that may record optional data on a magnetic recording layer of a photo filmstrip while the photo filmstrip is advanced by one frame after each exposure. The optional data is print number data designating the number of copies to print from a picture frame and/or caption data designating a content and a language of a caption to print with a picture frame. The optional data is selectable by photographers for each picture frame by operating a multi-operation button when the camera is put in a mode set-up standby stage upon a shift switch being turned on by pushing a shift button. The multi-operation button is virtually divided into four sections. The camera is put in a print number setting mode when one of the sections that is provided with a mark indicating the print number setting mode, is pressed in the mode set-up standby stage. The camera is put in a caption setting mode when another section that is provided with a mark indicating the caption setting mode, is pressed in the mode set-up stage. The print number data or the caption data as selected in the print number setting mode or the caption setting mode is stored in a RAM, and read out from the RAM when the magnetic recording device records it on the magnetic recording layer.
