摘要:
An apparatus adapted for use with a solar cell, such as a camera, includes a body and a cover member to which the solar cell is attached, where the cover member is movable between an open position and a closed position with respect to the body of the apparatus. The apparatus further includes an air layer providing member which provides an air layer between the cover member and the body of the apparatus when the cover member is in the closed position, thereby reducing transmittance of heat from the solar cell to the body of the apparatus.

An image pickup apparatus that reduces the likelihood that when a user operates a display screen with a fingertip while not looking through a viewfinder, the user's fingertip will be falsely detected, and makes it less likely that erroneous operation resulting from the false detection will occur. When an eye proximity sensor detects an object approaching, the light emission luminance of a display unit is reduced, or display on the display unit is turned off. When the eye proximity sensor has not detected an object approaching, first-type display objects that execute assigned functions in response to touch operations are displayed farther away from the eye proximity sensor on a display surface of the display unit than second-type display objects that do not execute assigned functions even when touched. When a touch on any of the first-type display objects is detected, a function assigned to the first-type display object is executed.

An image pickup apparatus includes an eyepiece unit configured to facilitate viewing an optical image of an object, an image pickup element configured to convert the optical image of an object into an electrical signal, an optical member disposed in front of the image pickup element and in an imaging light axis, an piezoelectric element disposed on the side of the optical member close to the eyepiece unit, where the piezoelectric element vibrates the optical member, a biasing member disposed on the side of the optical member opposite the piezoelectric element, a lowpass filter holding member configured to hold the optical member, the piezoelectric element, and the biasing member, and an image-pickup-apparatus body chassis having a flat surface portion perpendicular to the imaging light axis, where the flat surface portion has an opening therein. The lowpass filter holding member is disposed in the opening of the body chassis.
摘要:
A method of mounting an optical sensor package, in which the optical sensor package includes a chip on which an optical sensor is formed, where a part of the chip is exposed, including the steps of forming in a mounting member a concave portion corresponding to the outer shape of the exposed chip portion, and fitting and fixing the exposed chip portion into the concave portion of the mounting member.

An image sensing apparatus comprises: a mirror which reflects light coming from a photographing optical system at a mirror down position; a mirror support member which rotatably supports the mirror; a contacting member against which the mirror support member contacts at the mirror down position; a rotatable first lever member; and a second lever member to which the contacting member is secured, and which is rotatably held by the first lever member, wherein when the mirror moves to the mirror down position, the mirror support member contacts against the contacting member, the second lever member then rotates relative to the first lever member and contacts against the first lever member, and by rotating the first lever member, the first and second lever members rotate without changing a relative positional relationship, so as to adjust a position of the contacting member with respect to the mirror support member.

A camera includes an exterior member which forms an exterior of the camera, a camera body which forms a cartridge chamber portion having a cartridge chamber for loading a film cartridge therein, the cartridge chamber portion being disposed adjacent to the exterior member with a predetermined clearance therebetween and having a recessed part formed in one side thereof facing the exterior member, and a flexible printed circuit board on which at least one electric part is mounted, the flexible printed circuit board being disposed between the exterior member and the cartridge chamber portion in such a manner that the electric part is accommodated in the recessed part. With such a construction of the camera, the flexible printed circuit board on which the electric part is mounted can be disposed between the camera body and the exterior member without increasing a clearance (gap) between the camera body and the exterior member, so that the thickness of the camera as a whole can be prevented from being increased.
