Conventional ■ Limb Distortion As shown in Figure 3, conventional electric shutter circuits connect cadmium sulfide (CdS) (1), whose resistance value changes depending on the amount of light, from a power line (2) to detect the amount of exposure. A voltage is applied through the transistor (Q,), and this Cd
The current flowing through 5(1) is also made to flow through the collector of the transistor (0□) which constitutes the current mirror circuit (3) together with the transistor (QI).

As shown in FIG. 4, the circuit of FIG. 3 is further provided with transistors (Q4) (QS) and a writing transistor (Qa ) connected to variable resistors (11) (12
) and transistors (Q6) (Qt) are provided as shown, and by adjusting the variable resistors (11) and (12), the voltage applied to Cd5 (1) is changed, thereby causing the voltage to flow to the capacitor (5). Others have been proposed in which the current (and therefore the exposure time) is adjusted.

Ideally, in such an electric shutter circuit, a current that is inversely proportional to the resistance value of Cd5 (1) should flow through the capacitor (5), but due to variations in CdS, etc. The disadvantage is that the inversely proportional relationship tends to collapse, making it impossible to obtain accurate exposure times. In particular, when the voltage applied to CdS is applied from transistor (0,) (Q,) as shown in Fig. 4, when the resistance of Cd5 (1) becomes small and the voltage across it decreases, it becomes large. It becomes difficult to maintain the inversely proportional relationship.

Another method is to use a feedback circuit to control the voltage across the CdS so that it is constant, but this method has the disadvantage of complicating the circuit.

The present invention has been made in view of these points, and even if an ideal inversely proportional relationship between the resistance value of the photoconductive element and the current flowing to the capacitor cannot be obtained, no inconvenience will occur. The object of the present invention is to provide a novel electric shank circuit that avoids the occurrence of .

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the present invention applies a voltage to a photoconductive element whose resistance value changes depending on the amount of light, and simultaneously controls the current flowing through the photoconductive element by opening the shutter. In an electric shutter circuit that charges a capacitor, uses a comparator to detect the point in time when the charged voltage exceeds a reference voltage, and closes the shutter based on the detected output, the voltage generated across the photoconductive element as the reference voltage. The configuration uses .

In Figure 1, if the resistance value of Cd5(1) is R1 and the voltage across it is E, the current flowing through Cd5(1) is El.
/R. When this is charged to the capacitor (5) through the current mirror circuit (3), the voltage of the capacitor after a time T after the switch (4) is opened and charging starts is as follows. If charging is started and the shank is closed when the charging voltage reaches El, the relationship between exposure time T and CR is E, T cR = E, so T = CR, and the exposure time is the value of E. It can be seen that it is determined by the CRO value regardless of the
