A consecutive taking camera has 16 taking lenses (13a-13p). Time-sequential exposures can be taken in 16 sub-frames (74a-74h, 75a-75h) upon shutter releasing at one time, the sub-frames (74a-74h, 75a-75h) arranged on photo film in a direction of transport of the photo film. A stationary plate (26) is disposed behind the taking lenses (13a-13p), and has 16 stationary openings (31a-31p) through which light entered into respective the taking lenses (13a-13p) is passed. Shutter disks (32-39) are disposed behind the taking lenses (13a-13p), have a shutter slit, and are rotatable to move the shutter slit (32a-39a) past the 16 stationary openings (31a-31p). A consecutive mode and a one-shot mode are selectively designated: the former for taking the time-sequential exposures in 2 to 16 sub-frames (74a-74h, 75a-75h) upon the shutter releasing at the one time, and the latter for taking one exposure in one of the sub-frames (74a-74h, 75a-75h) upon shutter releasing. Motors (49, 50) rotate the shutter disks (32-39) in accordance with a designated one of the modes. The motors (49, 50), when the consecutive mode is designated, rotate the shutter disks (32-39) to move the shutter slit (32a-39a) sequentially past the 16 stationary openings (31a-31p). The motors (49, 50), when the one-shot mode is designated, rotate the shutter disks (32-39) at a predetermined angle to move the shutter slit (32a-39a) past one of the 16 stationary openings (31a-31p), and stops the shutter disks (32-39).
A consecutive taking camera, having M taking lenses for forming respective images in M sub-frames arranged on photo film in a direction of transport of said photo film, said photo film being advanced for next new M sub-frames after said images are formed in all of said M sub-frames, said consecutive taking camera comprising:
