Summary:A motor-driven camera of the so-called prewind type in which a film is preliminary wound to effect a prewinding action and then the film is rewound for every photographing shot, includes an electric film counter which counts the number of frames on the basis of a signal generated according to the movement of the film; a control circuit which determines the number of photographable frames on the basis of a counted value of the electric film counter; a detection circuit which detects the completion of the prewinding action by detecting that the film ceases to move; and a judgment circuit which is arranged to detect the state of the above-stated signal after the lapse of a predetermined period of time from the completion of the prewinding action detected by the detection circuit, to judge whether or not a change in the counted value of the electric film counter is necessary.
