摘要： An imaging apparatus of an electronic camera according to the present invention has a lens barrier arranged on an object side of a photographing lens; an imaging device capable of changing electric charge storage time; a lens barrier state-detecting means for outputting a signal indicating an opening state of the lens barrier after detecting the opening state of the lens barrier; a release switch for starting a photographing operation; an imaging device control means for starting electric charge storage of the device when the signal of the opening state of the lens barrier is outputted from the detecting means and for outputting a charge termination signal when the charge is terminated; and a lens barrier opening and closing driving means for driving the lens barrier to open on the basis of a turning-on signal of the release switch and for driving the lens barrier to close on the basis of the charge termination signal outputted from the control means. In this apparatus, by driving the driving means, the lens barrier is opened only during a photographing period, while the lens barrier is closed during a non-photographing period to prevent the device from being exposed to strong outside light.

摘要： An planetary gearing in which a planetary gear is positioned at three or more positions. A sun gear and a planetary carrier are co-axially and rotatably arranged. A planetary gear is rotatably supported by the planetary carrier to engage the sun gear. A plurality of transmission gears are arranged around the sun gear to be selectively engaged with the planetary gear when the planetary gear revolves around the sun gear. Stopper projections are provided on the planetary carrier, each corresponding to each of the transmission gears. An engagement lever is rotatably arranged to take a first position and a second position. The engagement lever at the first position holds the planetary carrier, by selectively engaging one of the stopper projections, to make the planetary gear engage the corresponding transmission gear. On the contrary, the engagement lever at the second position is disengaged from the stopper projections. The engagement lever is controlled by a cam member so as to rotate between the first and second positions. The cam member is controlled by a control member so that the engagement lever rotates and stops at the first and second positions.

摘要： A camera body allows the mounting of a lens unit configured to form an optical image of a subject, and includes a body mount, an imaging element, a capacitor, and a housing member. The body mount allows a lens unit to be mounted. The imaging element includes a light receiving face arranged to receive light passing through the lens unit, and converts an optical image of the subject into an electrical signal. The capacitor is disposed above the imaging element and more to the imaging element side than the body mount in a direction of the light passing through the lens unit. The housing member accommodates the imaging element and the capacitor. When viewed in a direction perpendicular to the light receiving face, at least part of the capacitor is disposed within a region bounded by the outer edge of the body mount.
