PURPOSE: To immediately obtain high-definition print information corresponding to a photographed subject with a simple configuration and to select whether printing it or not just after photographing.

CONSTITUTION: This print camera is provided with an electronically developed recording medium 30 for recording a photographed optical image as optical information, a line sensor 44 for providing image information corresponding to the optical information along the main scan direction, and a print information generating circuit 405 for generating unit print information each time a prescribed image information group is outputted. When a print operation changeover switch 401 is set into an automatic print mode and a release switch 14 is operated, photographing and printing operations are continuously executed. In a manual print mode, on the other hand, the optical information recorded on the electronically developed recording medium 30 at that time is suitably read out and printed.
