Abstract
There is disclosed a focus condition detecting device for a camera. The focus condition detecting device has a preliminary correlation calculation means for calculating correlations between first and second image signals with a relatively low accuracy and a principal correlation calculation means for calculating correlations between first and second image signals with a relatively high accuracy on the basis of data obtained in the preliminary correlation calculation.
