。Conventionally, as a type of focus adjustment device for cameras, the exit pupil of the photographic lens is divided into two by an optical system for focus detection, and the two subject images formed by the light flux passing through each pupil area are captured using a photoelectric element. A method is known in which light is received by an array (for example, a CCD sensor array), the focal state of the photographic lens is detected from the output, and the photographic lens is driven based on the detection result. Furthermore, a method has been proposed in which a plurality of such focus detection devices are installed together and focus detection is performed based on subject images at different positions within the photographic screen.

A lower field lens FLD is arranged on the same optical axis as S. Behind it, two secondary imaging lenses FCLA and FCLB are arranged at symmetrical positions with respect to the optical axis. Further behind that is the sensor row SAA.

る。SAB is placed. Secondary imaging lenses FCLA, FCL
Apertures DIA and DIB are provided near B. The field lens FLD forms an exit pupil of the photographic lens LNS into two secondary images approximately on the pupil planes of the lenses FCLA and FCLB. As a result, the light beams incident on the secondary imaging lenses FCLA and FCLB are emitted from regions of equal area that do not overlap with each other and correspond to the respective secondary imaging lenses FCLA and FCLB on the exit pupil plane of the photographing lens LNS. It becomes what is given. When the aerial image formed in the vicinity of the field lens FLD is re-imaged onto the surfaces of the sensor arrays SAA and SAB by the secondary imaging lenses FCLA and FCLB, based on the displacement of the aerial image position in the optical axis direction, , sensor array SAA
, the two images on the SAB will change their positions. Therefore, by detecting the amount of displacement (shift) in the relative positions of the two images on the sensor array, it is possible to know the focal state of the imaging lens LNS.

Let the output of SAB be B (i). Note that the number of pixels of the sensor is required to be at least five, and preferably several dozen or more.
