  FIG. 1 shows a configuration of a single-lens reflex digital still camera 1 according to an embodiment. In FIG. 1, illustration and description of camera devices and circuits not directly related to the present invention are omitted. In a camera 1 according to an embodiment, an interchangeable lens 3 is attached to a camera body 2 in a replaceable manner. The camera body 2 is provided with a first image sensor 4 for capturing a subject image and recording the image. The first image sensor 4 can be constituted by a CCD, a CMOS, or the like. At the time of photographing, the quick return mirror 5 and the sub mirror 6 are retracted to a position outside the photographing optical path indicated by a solid line, the shutter 7 is opened, and a subject image is formed on the light receiving surface of the first image sensor 4 by the photographing lens 8. Although not shown, a low-pass filter for preventing moire and false colors is provided between the shutter 7 and the first image sensor 4.

  At the bottom of the camera body 2, a focus detection optical system 9 and a distance measuring element 10 for detecting the focus adjustment state of the photographing lens 8 are provided. In this embodiment, an example in which a focus detection method based on a pupil division phase difference detection method is adopted is shown. The focus detection optical system 9 guides the pair of focus detection light fluxes that have passed through the photographing lens 8 to the light receiving surface of the distance measuring element 10 and forms a pair of optical images. The distance measuring element 10 includes, for example, a pair of CCD line sensors, and outputs a focus detection signal corresponding to the pair of optical images. Before photographing, the quick return mirror 5 and the sub mirror 6 are set at positions in the photographing optical path as indicated by broken lines in FIG. 1, and the pair of focus detection light beams from the photographing lens 8 are half mirrors of the quick return mirror 5. And is reflected by the sub-mirror 6 and guided to the focus detection optical system 9 and the distance measuring element 10.

A subject image is formed. The organic EL display element 12 superimposes and displays information such as a focus detection area mark on the subject image formed on the finder screen 11 and displays various photographing information such as an exposure value at a position outside the subject image. In addition, since the organic EL display element 12 emits light by itself, a backlight is not required unlike a liquid crystal display element (LCD). The subject image on the finder screen 11 is guided to the eyepiece window 15 via the penta roof prism 13 and the eyepiece lens 14 so that the photographer can visually recognize the subject image.

  The finder optical system at the top of the camera body 2 is provided with a second image sensor 16 that captures a subject image for subject tracking and photometry, and detects the position of the tracking target by analyzing the subject image and photometry. The subject brightness is detected based on the result. Although the description of the details of the second image sensor 16 is omitted, a plurality of imaging pixels are two-dimensionally arranged, and each pixel is provided with an RGB filter. The subject image formed on the finder screen 11 before photographing is guided to the second image sensor 16 via the penta roof prism 13, the prism 17 and the imaging lens 18, and the subject image is formed on the light receiving surface of the second image sensor 16.

  The interchangeable lens 3 is provided with a zooming lens 8a, a focusing lens 8b, a diaphragm 21, a lens drive control device 22, and the like. In this embodiment, the photographic lens 8 is represented by a zoom lens 8a, a focusing lens 8b, and a diaphragm 21, but the configuration of the photographic lens 8 is not limited to the configuration shown in FIG. The lens drive control device 22 includes a microcomputer, details of which will be described later, and peripheral components such as a memory, a drive circuit, and an actuator, and performs drive control of the lenses 8a and 8b and the diaphragm 21 and detection of their set positions. Information such as a focal length and an open aperture value of the interchangeable lens 3 is stored in a memory built in the lens drive control device 22.

  The body drive control device 19 and the lens drive control device 22 communicate with each other via the contact 23 of the lens mount unit, and transmit information such as a lens drive amount and a control aperture value from the body drive control device 19 to the lens drive control device 22. Then, lens position information and aperture value information are transmitted from the lens drive control device 22 to the body drive control device 19.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a detailed configuration of the body drive control device and the lens drive control device 22. The CPU 31 of the body drive control device 19 performs various controls and calculations of the camera 1. The timing circuit 32 separately controls the start and end of charge accumulation of the first image sensor 4 and the second image sensor 16 and the reading of the image signal. The processing circuit 33 converts the image signal output from the first image sensor 4 into a digital signal, and then performs image processing such as white balance adjustment, sharpness adjustment, gamma correction, gradation adjustment, interpolation, and the like in the memory 34 temporarily. Remember me. The processing circuit 35 converts the image signal output from the second image sensor 16 into a digital signal, and then performs image analysis for tracking the target subject and photometric calculation for detecting the subject brightness.

  The focus detection circuit 36 receives a focus detection signal from the distance measuring element 10 and detects the focus adjustment state of the taking lens 8, here, the defocus amount. The interface circuit 37 inputs an operation signal from the operation member 20. The display circuit 38 drives the organic EL display element 12 to superimpose and display information such as a focus detection area mark on the subject image, and displays various shooting information such as an exposure value at a position outside the subject image. The display circuit 39 drives the monitor 24 to display a subject image and various information related to photographing. The recording circuit 40 records a captured image on a recording medium 25 such as a memory card. The drive circuit 41 drives the shutter 7 according to the shutter speed of the exposure calculation result.

  The CPU 42 of the lens drive control device 22 controls the lens drive and the aperture. The lens driving unit 43 drives the focusing lens 8b by an actuator (not shown) to adjust the focus, and the diaphragm driving unit 44 drives the diaphragm 21 by an actuator (not shown). The memory 45 stores lens information such as a focal length of the photographing lens 8 and an open aperture value.

  FIG. 3 is a rear view of the camera body 2. Here, only the part related to the present invention will be described. The menu button 47 is an operation member 20 for displaying various mode information and setting information on the monitor 24 and setting various information on the camera. The multi-selector 48 selects an arbitrary area from a plurality of focus detection areas set in the shooting screen and sets a “priority area” or an arbitrary “group area” from the plurality of focus detection areas. Or an “effective area” used for focus adjustment from a plurality of focus detection areas. Details of these focus detection areas will be described later.

  In addition, the AF area mode selector 49 selects four types of AF area modes, namely (1) single area mode, (2) dynamic AF mode, (3) group dynamic AF mode, and (4) closest priority dynamic AF mode. It is the operation member 20 for doing. (1) The single area mode is a mode in which focus detection is performed in the focus detection area selected by the photographer using the multi-selector 48, and focus adjustment is performed according to the focus detection result, and is suitable for still subject shooting. (2) In the dynamic AF mode, the focus detection area selected by the photographer using the multi-selector 48 is set as a “priority area”, and this priority area and one or a plurality of focus detection areas around the priority area preset by the photographer, That is, in this mode, focus detection is performed in the “backup area”, and even when the intended subject is removed from the priority area, the focus adjustment is performed by covering with the focus detection result of the surrounding backup area, which is suitable for moving body photography.

  (3) In the group dynamic AF mode, focus detection is performed in a group of focus detection areas preselected by the photographer using the multi-selector 48, that is, a “group area”, and for example, the closest focus among the plurality of focus detection results. This mode adjusts the focus based on the detection result, and is suitable for moving body photography that emphasizes composition. In the group area, all focus detection areas are divided into a plurality of arbitrary group areas such as the center, the top, bottom, left, and right. (4) The closest priority dynamic AF mode is a mode in which focus detection is performed in all focus detection areas, and the camera automatically selects an area indicating the closest focus detection result from among the focus detection areas, and performs focus adjustment. Suitable for shooting subjects in

  FIG. 4 shows the in-finder display of the focus detection area by the organic EL display element 12. This figure shows a state in which all display segments corresponding to a plurality of focus detection areas are lit. On the photographing screen 51 on the finder screen 11 formed through the photographing lens 8, a mark 52 (marked on the finder screen and not lit) indicating the arrangement range of the focus detection area 65 is displayed. Several focus detection areas are developed, and a rectangular focus detection area frame 53 is arranged at each position. Further, in each focus detection area / frame 53, a close-priority area frame 54 indicating a close-priority close-priority area is arranged. The focus detection area frame 53 and the closest priority area frame 54 can be turned on and off (display / non-display) separately by the organic EL display element 12, and the focus detection area frame 53 is lit in red. The closest priority area frame 54 is lit in green.

  Further, a dynamic AF area frame 55 indicating a “backup area” range in which focus detection is performed in the dynamic AF mode or a “group area” range in which focus detection is performed in the group dynamic AF mode is arranged. The dynamic AF area frame 55 is composed of a plurality of sides surrounding all the focus detection area frames 53, and each side can be individually turned on / off (display / non-display) by the organic EL display element 12. The dynamic AF area frame 55 is lit in blue.

  In the single area mode, only the focus detection area / frame 53 of the focus detection area selected by the photographer with the multi selector 48 is turned on. An illustration of the finder display example of the focus detection area in the single area mode is omitted.

  FIG. 5 shows a display example of the focus detection area in the viewfinder in the dynamic AF mode. In the dynamic AF mode, the focus detection area frame 53 and the closest priority area frame 54 of the priority area (in this example, the center AF frame of the screen 51) selected by the photographer are turned on, and the photographer is preliminarily turned on. The dynamic AF area frame 55 corresponding to the position of the outer frame of the backup area set by the multi selector 48 is turned on.

  Note that the backup area in the dynamic AF mode has, for example, a single area range centered on the priority area, a double area range having a size including the single area range, or a size including the double area range. A focus detection area where the photographer sets the size of the area in advance, such as the triple area range, and the camera automatically uses as the backup area according to the position of the selected priority area and the size of the set area. Is selected.

  In this dynamic AF mode, if the defocus amount detected this time in the priority area where the focus detection area frame 53 and the closest priority area frame 54 are lit is not continuous with the previous defocus amount, priority is given. It is determined that the intended subject has temporarily deviated from the area, and among the backup areas in the dynamic AF area / frame 55, an area indicating the defocus amount and the continuous defocus amount in the order closer to the priority area is displayed. Search and perform focus adjustment based on the defocus amount of the area of the search result. Thereafter, when a continuous defocus amount is detected again in the priority area, it is determined that the intended subject is recaptured in the priority area, and focus adjustment is performed based on the defocus amount in the priority area.

  Note that the larger the dynamic AF area frame 55 set in the dynamic AF mode, the more backup areas are prepared, and the backup can be performed reliably when the intended subject is removed from the priority area. This is advantageous when shooting fast moving objects. On the other hand, the more the backup area is, the more time is required for the focus detection calculation and the responsiveness of the AF decreases. Therefore, it is necessary to set a dynamic AF area frame 55 of an appropriate size.

  FIG. 6 shows a display example in the viewfinder of the focus detection area when the photographing lens 8 is focused on the subject intended by the photographer in the dynamic AF mode. In the dynamic AF mode, the dynamic AF area frame 55 does not need to be lit even after the photographing lens 8 is focused on the subject intended by the photographer. In this embodiment, the dynamic AF area frame 55 is turned off when the subject is in focus. In the dynamic AF mode, the focus detection area / frame 53 and the closest priority area / frame 54 are always lit regardless of the presence or absence of focusing.

  FIG. 7 shows a display example in the finder of the focus detection area when the priority area is set at a position other than the center of the screen in the dynamic AF mode. The priority area in the dynamic AF mode can be set at an arbitrary position other than the center of the screen. As described above, the camera automatically selects the backup area in the dynamic AF mode according to the position of the selected priority area and the size of the set backup area. When the priority area is set around the screen near the arrangement range mark 52 of the focus detection area, the area size of the single area range, double area range, and triple area range set in advance by the photographer is sufficient. Can no longer meet.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating a display example in the finder of the focus detection area in the group dynamic AF mode. In the group dynamic AF mode, the dynamic AF area frame 55 indicating the size of the “group area” selected by the photographer with the multi selector 48 and the focus detection area frame 53 of the focus detection area at the center position of the group area are turned on. To do.

  In the group dynamic AF mode, similarly to the above-described dynamic AF mode, the intended subject is captured in one of the focus detection areas in the group area selected in advance by the photographer, and the photographing lens 8 is in focus. The dynamic AF area frame 55 does not need to be lit, and since the visibility of the viewfinder image is reduced and the photographer feels troublesome when constantly displayed, this embodiment focuses on the subject. When the image is matched, the dynamic AF area frame 55 is turned off. When the intended subject is removed from the group area, that is, when it is determined that there is no continuity of the defocus amount detected in the focus detection area in the group, the dynamic AF area frame 55 is turned on again, and the group Make it easier to capture the intended subject in the area. Even in the group dynamic AF mode, the focus detection area / frame 53 is always lit regardless of the presence or absence of focusing.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating a display example in the finder of the focus detection area in the closest priority dynamic AF mode. In the closest priority dynamic AF mode, focus adjustment is performed based on the closest defocus amount in the focus detection area in the dynamic AF area preset by the photographer. At this time, the dynamic AF area frame 55 indicating the range of the dynamic AF area is turned on, and the closest priority area frame 54 in which the closest defocus amount is detected is turned on.

  Even in the closest priority dynamic AF mode, the dynamic AF area frame 55 is turned off when the photographing lens 8 is in focus in any of the dynamic AF areas set in advance by the photographer. It should be noted that the closest priority area frame 54 is always lit regardless of the presence or absence of focusing.

  10 and 11 are flowcharts showing the photographing operation in the AF area mode. The operation of the embodiment will be described with reference to this flowchart. In step 1, the shutter button half-press operation is confirmed by the release half-press switch of the operation member 20, and if the shutter button is half-pressed, the process proceeds to step 2. In step 2, the focus detection area selected by the photographer is read, and in the subsequent step 3, the AF area mode set by the photographer is read.

  In step 4, it is determined whether or not the AF area mode set by the photographer is the dynamic AF mode. If the dynamic AF mode is set, the process proceeds to step 5. When the dynamic AF mode is set, as shown in FIG. 5, the focus detection area selected by the photographer in step 5 is set as the priority area, and the organic EL display element 12 is driven by the display circuit 38 to detect the focus corresponding to the priority area. The area frame 53 and the closest priority area frame 54 are turned on, and the dynamic AF area frame 55 having a size set in advance by the photographer centering on the priority area is turned on in the next step 10.

  As described above, the dynamic AF area frame 55 indicating the range of the focus detection area used for the focus adjustment of the photographing lens 8 out of the plurality of focus detection areas set in the photographing screen 51 of the photographing lens 8 is used as a finder image. Since the display is superimposed, the subject image is easier to see and the range of the focus detection area that is effective for focus adjustment compared to displaying the focus detection area frame 53 of all focus detection areas used for focus adjustment. Can be easily recognized.

  When the dynamic AF mode is set, the focus detection area frame 53 and the closest priority area frame 54 indicating the position of the adopted area, and the dynamic AF area frame 55 are displayed superimposed on the viewfinder image. As a result, it is easier to see the subject image than when displaying the focus detection area frame 53 of all focus detection areas used for focus adjustment, and the adoption area selected by the photographer and focus detection effective for focus adjustment. The range of the area can be easily recognized.

  If the dynamic AF mode is not set in step 4, the process proceeds to step 6 to determine whether the group dynamic AF mode is set. When the group dynamic AF mode is set, the process proceeds to step 7, and as shown in FIG. 8, the organic EL display element 12 is driven by the display circuit 38 and the focus detection area / frame 53 at the center position of the group area selected in advance by the photographer. And the dynamic AF area frame 55 indicating the range of the group area selected by the photographer in the subsequent step 10 is turned on.

  Thus, when the group dynamic AF mode is set, the focus detection area frame 53 indicating the position of the focus detection area corresponding to the center position of the dynamic AF area frame 55, the dynamic AF area frame 55, Is superimposed on the finder image so that the subject image is easier to see and belongs to the selected group area compared to displaying the focus detection area frame 53 of all focus detection areas in the group area. The range of the focus detection area can be clearly recognized.

  If the group dynamic AF mode is not set in step 6, the process proceeds to step 8 to determine whether or not the closest priority dynamic AF mode is set. When the closest priority dynamic AF mode is set, the process proceeds to step 9. As shown in FIG. 9, the organic EL display element 12 is driven by the display circuit 38 to light the closest priority area frame 54 of the closest area, and the subsequent steps. At 10, the dynamic AF area frame 55 indicating the dynamic AF area preset by the photographer is turned on.

  As described above, when the closest priority dynamic AF mode is set, a viewfinder image of the closest priority area frame 54 indicating the position of the focus detection area indicating the closest focus detection result and the dynamic AF area frame 55 is displayed. As a result, the subject image is easier to see and the focus adjustment is more effective than displaying the focus detection area frames 53 of all focus detection areas in the preset dynamic AF area. It is possible to easily recognize the closest focus detection area.

  When the closest priority dynamic AF mode is not set in step 8, the process proceeds to step 11 where it is assumed that the single area mode is set, and the focus detection selected by the photographer by driving the organic EL display element 12 by the display circuit 38. The area focus detection area frame 53 is turned on.

  After the finder display of the focus detection area is finished, the process proceeds to step 21 in FIG. 11, where focus detection is performed in the focus detection area corresponding to the set AF area mode, and the focusing lens 8b is moved based on the defocus amount of the detection result. Drive to adjust the focus. In the next step 22, it is determined whether or not the taking lens 8 is in focus. If not in focus, the process returns to step 21 to perform focus adjustment again. On the other hand, when the in-focus state is achieved, the process proceeds to step 23 where the organic EL display element 12 is driven by the display circuit 38 and the dynamic AF area frame 55 is turned off.

  Thus, when the taking lens 8 is in focus in any focus detection area in the dynamic AF area / frame 55, the dynamic AF area / frame 55 superimposed on the viewfinder image is deleted. The range of the focus detection area used for focus adjustment can be recognized only when the main subject is captured, and in other cases, the viewfinder image can be more easily recognized.

  In step 24, it is determined whether or not the shutter release has been performed by the release full-press switch of the operation member 20. If the shutter release has been performed, the process proceeds to step 25. In step 25, the quick return mirror 5 and the sub mirror 6 are raised, and the diaphragm 21 is narrowed down to the control diaphragm value. In step 26, the shutter 7 is opened and an image is picked up by the image pickup device 4. In step 27 after the image pickup, mirror down and shutter charge are performed. In step 28, after processing the captured image, the image is recorded on the recording medium 25 and displayed on the monitor 24. On the other hand, if a negative determination is made in step 24, it is determined whether or not it is half-pressed in step 25. If it is half-pressed, the process proceeds to step 30, and if it is released halfway, this flow is ended. In step 30, it is determined whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed from the focus determination in step 22. If the predetermined time has elapsed, the process proceeds to step 31 to perform focus determination again. If the predetermined time has not elapsed, the process returns to step 4 to repeat the above processing. If it is detected in step 31 that focus is not achieved, the process returns to step 24 and the above process is repeated. If it is detected that focus is achieved, the process returns to step 24 and the process is repeated.

  In the above-described embodiment, the display device in the finder has been described as an example. However, the present invention can be applied to all display devices that superimpose and display the focus detection area / frame on the captured subject image. The effect which was done is acquired. For example, the present invention can also be applied to a case where a through image as a result of imaging is displayed on the monitor 24 and a focus detection area / frame is superimposed and displayed thereon.

  In the above-described embodiment, a single-lens reflex digital still camera has been described as an example, but other than a single-lens reflex digital still camera, for example, a display device in a viewfinder of a single-lens reflex film camera or a monitor of a compact digital camera. The present invention can be applied, and the effects as described above can be obtained.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the focus detection area frame 53, the closest priority area frame 54, and the dynamic AF area frame 55 are displayed in different colors. In addition to changing the color, for example, the shape of a solid line and a broken line may be changed.
