A camera for shooting both a demagnified image and a magnifed image. In an embodiment, the camera includes a housing body containing a CCD, and a lens barrel. An abutted member having an objective lens therein is engaged with the lens barrel and a rotatable manually-controlled member is fitted around that lens barrel. The abutted member moves in the direction of an optical axis K in response to rotation of the manually-controlled member. A magnified image and a demagnified image can be photographed with the manually-controlled member at its advanced and retracted positions, respectively. The focal point of the objective lens falls on the center of an end of the abutted member located at the position for shooting a magnified image. The magnified image is photographed with the end of the abutted member abutted against the object.
