DISTANCE MEASURING CAMERA

A distance measurement camera contains a first optical system OS for collecting light from a subject to form a first subject image, a second optical system OS for collecting the light from the subject to form a second subject image, an imaging part S for imaging the first subject image formed by the first optical system OS and the second subject image formed by the second optical system OS and a distance calculating unit for calculating the distance to the subject based on the first subject image and the second subject image imaged by the imaging part S. The distance calculating part calculates the distance to the subject based on an image magnification ratio between a magnification of the first subject image and a magnification of the second subject image.
