Active AF camera having remote control apparatus
First Claim
1. An active AF camera comprising an active object distance measuring device including a first emitter which emits a first signal transmitting wave medium for measuring an object distance of an object to be photographed and a first receiver which receives the signal transmitting wave medium reflected from the object, and remote control means including a second emitter and a remote control receiver which receives a second signal transmitting wave medium emitted from said second emitter of said remote control means for remotely controlling the camera, wherein said first receiver and the remote control receiver comprise a single common receiver.

Abstract
An active AF camera comprises an active object distance measuring device including a first infrared emitter which emits first infrared radiation for measuring an object distance of an object to be photographed and a first infrared receiver which receives the infrared radiation reflected from the object. A remote control receiver is also provided which receives second infrared radiation emitted from a second infrared emitter of a remote control apparatus for remotely controlling the camera. The first infrared receiver and the remote control infrared receiver are made as a common infrared receiver.

- 5. An active AF camera comprising an active object distance measuring device including a first emitter which emits first signal transmitting wave medium for measuring an object distance of an object to be photographed and a first receiver which receives the signal transmitting wave medium reflected from the object, a second emitter which emits second signal transmitting wave medium for remotely controlling the camera, and a second receiver which receives the second signal transmitting wave medium emitted from the second emitter, said first receiver and the second receiver comprising a single receiver.
- 7. An active AF camera having a remote control apparatus and an active object measuring device, comprising a single receiver which receives object distance measuring signal transmitting wave medium emitted from the active object distance measuring device and remote controlling signal transmitting wave medium emitted from the remote control apparatus.
- 10. An active AF camera having a remote control function in which a first receiver receives remote controlling signal transmitting wave medium to send an object distance signal, and an object distance measuring function in which object distance measuring signal transmitting wave medium is emitted in accordance with the object distance signal, so that the object distance measuring signal transmitting wave medium which is reflected from an object to be photographed is received by a second receiver to detect an object distance of the object, said first receiver and said second receiver comprising a single common receiver.
