Abstract:
In a camera having an automatic opening/closing mechanism of an iris, there is a problem that the iris cannot be operated in a case where the iris has not been operated for a long period of time. A monitoring camera includes: a light receiving unit; an iris for adjusting an amount of light passing through the light receiving unit; an iris opening/closing unit; an imaging element for converting light having passed through the light receiving unit into a video signal; a light amount feedback opening/closing controlling unit for controlling the iris opening/closing unit so that the iris is opened or closed on the basis of a luminance of the video signal; and an opening/closing controlling unit for controlling the iris opening/closing unit so that the iris is opened or closed not on the basis of the luminance of the video signal but in a case where a predetermined condition is satisfied.

Claim (Index 8):
The monitoring camera according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein, in a case where the opening/closing controller controls the iris opening/closing unit to cause the iris to open or close, the iris opening/closing unit causes the iris to operate to be fully opened, to be closed to a minimum, or to be in either of the states of being fully opened and being closed to the minimum alternately.
