Abstract

A photographing apparatus is equipped with a photographing optical system, a film holding member on which the photographing optical system is fixed, a supporting frame which rotatably supports the film holding member around a shaft, an outer supporting frame which rotatably supports the supporting frame around the shaft, a finder optical system which has an optical axis different from that of the photographing optical system and which is mounted on the top surface of the outer supporting frame, an AF distance measuring section for measuring the distance to an object, and a captive cam for driving the film holding member and a captive cam for driving the supporting frames for correcting parallax in accordance with the output of the AF distance measuring section. The captive cams are driven also for correcting the blur of an exposure image.
