An automatic adjustment system for a camera which time division multiplexes inputs from a scanning system, and an automatic exposure control or a film feeding motor speed control into an evaluation circuit. The same electronic circuitry is thereby used for evaluating the input from any of the mentioned adjusting systems to minimize the complexity and bulk of the camera circuitry necessary for processing. Each aforementioned automatic feature compares a respective pair of signals to determine the respective adjustment. A pair of signals is brought to a common condition indicative of proper adjustment by use of feedback from the actual state of the automatic system for the particular feature.

An automatic optical instrument adjusting system for comparing transduced inputs of ambient conditions with the levels representative of states of the instrument and for correctively adjusting the instrument state in response to the difference between the conditions and the state comprising: focusing means for providing signals dependent on the distance to a subject and converting same to timed pulses representative of each ambient condition; measuring means defining the setting of the objective lens of the instrument and converting same to timed pulses representative of each operative state; a timed pulsing apparatus for regularly and periodically issuing controlling signals; an evaluation circuit for processing two inputted timed pulses and for generating output signals having timing relative to the differences between said two inputted timed pulses; automatic switch means connected between said focusing means, said measuring means and said evaluation circuit and operated by said timed pulsing apparatus for selectively controlling the inputs to said evaluation circuit; and storage circuit means connected to selectively receive signals from said evaluation circuit and for holding said signals representative of the difference between the conditions and the states until an updated signal of the same type is received.
