摘要： An interchangeable lens camera including a lens barrel and a camera body. The lens barrel is attached to the camera body via a body side mount and a lens side mount. The lens barrel mounting mechanism, including the body side mount and the lens side mount, is capable of moving along the optical axis of the camera so as to move from a position where the lens barrel is completely collapsed within the camera body to a position where the lens barrel is fully extended for zoom photography. The shortest state of the camera is when the lens barrel is detached from the camera. The lens barrel includes a set tube that is movable along the optical axis, lens units for focusing light onto a film in the camera body, and lens protection elements that open or close depending upon the state of the lens barrel, i.e., detached or attached, collapsed or extended. The camera body includes a control circuit that controls the movement of the lens barrel based upon the state of several switches, some of which are located in the lens barrel.

摘要： This camera includes a viewfinder and a device (4) for detecting the visual line of a photographer looking through the viewfinder, an operation member (1), (8) such as a release button which is operated by the photographer to take a photograph, a means (2) for inputting calibration information, and a means for performing photography (5), (6), (7). The calibration information input means (2) operates in response to the operation of the operation member (1), (8), and inputs and stores calibration information when the photographer fixates on a target mark (3, b) visible within the viewfinder, based upon the visual line detected at that time by the visual line detection means (4). The object intended by the photographer to be photographed is detected and photographs it, based upon the visual line detected by the visual line detection means (4) and the stored calibration information.

摘要： A display apparatus in a camera for displaying photographic information using rotating elements. The display apparatus includes a rotating setting dial to rotatively set photographic information, and a display unit including pointers and pointer scales to display the photographic information set by the rotating setting dial. The pointer rotates about a fixed pointer scale in order to indicate photographic information on the pointer scale as set by the rotating setting dial. The display apparatus further includes a detector to detect a direction of rotation of the rotating setting dial, a drive unit to rotate the pointer, and a control unit to control the drive unit to rotate the pointer in the same direction as the direction of the rotating setting dial detected by the detector. In addition, the display unit may include at least one pointer which is controlled by a stepping motor to rotate the pointer in only one direction, regardless of the direction of rotation of the rotating setting dial.

摘要： A camera with a built-in flash light unit has a light shielding barrel of truncated cone shape and a stepped film cartridge chamber. The light shielding barrel is disposed to shield an optical path between a photographic lens at a front of the camera and a film plane at a rear of the camera, the smaller end of the truncated cone residing at the photographic lens. The cartridge chamber is provided at one side of the light shielding barrel and encloses a film cartridge having a cylinder for including a film wound therein and a feed step tangentially projecting out from a circumference of the cylinder for film feed therefrom. The cartridge chamber has a predetermined rear-to-front dimension and comprises a first room defined by a curved wall shaped to fit the cylinder and a second room connected to the first room and defined by a wall shaped to fit the feed step. The light shielding barrel and both of the cartridge chamber walls define a space between the cartridge chamber and the light shielding barrel. A power source condenser, that provides power to the flash light unit, and a film feed transmission member are disposed in the space between the cartridge chamber and the light shielding barrel within a rear-to-front dimension of the space that is within the predetermined rear-to-front dimension of the cartridge chamber.
