Abstract

A program rewritable camera includes camera elements for conducting camera operation, a control circuit for controlling said camera elements in response to coded control orders, a first memory for storing said control orders and an input circuit for enabling part or all of the contents stored in said first memory to rewrite by a peripheral device disposed outside the camera body. Connecting the peripheral device to the camera, camera functions desired by a photographer can be transferred to and stored in said first memory from the peripheral device in which various camera functions have been stored, through said input circuit to put the camera into action.
