Disclosed is a camera including: an image-taking device; a shutter unit
having a first shutter member that travels from a position where a
shutter opening is closed to a position which is retreated from the
opening, and a second shutter member that travels from the position which
is retreated from the shutter opening to the position where the opening
is closed; a lighting unit that lights a subject; and a control circuit
that controls the shutter unit, the lighting unit and the image-taking
device, in which the control circuit makes the first shutter member
travel, and executes an accumulation operation of the image-taking device
after the shutter opening is fully opened in an image taking mode in
which the subject is lighted by the lighting unit, and makes the second
shutter member travel in association with stop of the accumulation
operation.
