The distance-measuring camera contains a first optical system for forming a first subject image, a second optical system for forming a second subject image, an imaging part for imaging the first subject image and the second subject image and a distance calculating part for calculating a first candidate for a distance to the subject based on an image magnification ratio between a magnification of the first subject image imaged by the imaging part and a magnification of the second subject image imaged by the imaging part and a second candidate for the distance to the subject based on a parallel disparity between the first subject image and the second subject image. The distance calculating part selects either one of the first candidate and the second candidate as the distance to the subject according to a predetermined condition.
