A movable focus adjustment member for focusing the lens has a first cam thereon defining a plurality of focusing positions and a latch mechanism is coactive with the first cam to select a focusing position in response to the receipt of the signal indicating a coincident auto-focusing point. The safety device includes a second cam on the focus adjustment member defining a focusing position corresponding to a predetermined pan focusing distance between zero and infinity and wherein the latching mechanism is coactive with the second cam when the coincident auto-focusing point signal is not produced.
