A camera device comprises an optical system driven to a predetermined position upon initialization when a photographing mode has been set, a memory including an area for storing lens information inherent to the optical system, an area for storing a file management program, and a management area which is managed by using the file management program, the area for storing the lens information differing from the management area, and a controller which controls the initialization of the optical system based on the lens information stored in the memory.
