To provide an electronic camera to obtain a photographic image by photography on a condition that a flashing device is made to emit light and a photographic image by photography on a condition that the flashing device is not made to emit the light with easy operation.

When a fully pushing operation signal is inputted from a release switch 29, a CPU 18 transmits an instruction to emit light to the flashing device 300 (Fig.1, not shown) through a flashing device communication circuit 24 so as to perform the photography on the condition that the device 300 (Fig.1, not shown) is made to emit the light. The CPU 18 instructs to continuously perform the photography on the condition that the device 300 (Fig.1, not shown) is not made to emit the light further so as to record the image by photography with flash light and the image by photography without emitting the flash light on a recording medium 27 respectively. Thus, both images are obtained by performing releasing operation once without performing the releasing operation twice by changing the setting of light emission/non-light emission by the device 300 (Fig.1, not shown).
