摘要:
A waterdrop-proof camera includes lens frames which are moved backward and forward relative to an optical axis during zooming or focusing; a camera main body in which the lens frames are slidably held in a liquid-sealed state; vent holes, provided in positions where they will not be covered by the hand of a user, on either the wall surface of the camera main body or that of the lena frames, through which vent holes the inside of the camera is communicated with the outside thereof; and a sheet-like member, having sufficient water repellency and air permeability, arranged on the camera body containing the inner side of the vent holes so as to seal them. A sealing member formed from a elastic member is fixed to either one of first and second lens frames which move relative to each other, by which sealing member one of the lens frames is radially pressed against the other, so that a section between the two lens frames is waterproofed. In addition, a device is disposed for increasing the amount of pressure at a specific focal distance or in a state in which the lens frames are housed.

A camera with a built-in strobe according to the present invention comprises a camera housing, an optical system located substantially in the center of the camera housing, a gripping section formed at an end of the camera housing in a direction that does not cross the optical axis of the optical system and is aligned in a substantially vertical direction, a release button formed above the gripping section and on the top of the camera housing, a strobe that is installed on the front of the camera between the release button and the gripping section and that lies between a finger for manipulating release and the other fingers for gripping the gripping section when the camera housing is gripped by a human hand, and a finger intrusion prevention screen that has a convex portion for preventing any of the fingers gripping the gripping section from intruding into the strobe.

Apparatus for exposure control/focus adjustment for a camera comprises an exposure controlling mechanism, a focus adjusting mechanism and a source of rotary drive. The drive from the source is transmitted through a differential gearing to the exposure controlling mechanism and the focus adjusting mechanism. The differential gearing is operated such that the transmission of the drive to either one of the exposure controlling mechanism and the focus adjusting mechanism is blocked while allowing the other mechanism to be driven.

A camera body has a photographing lens. A barrier member is mounted on the camera body to be movable between a position at which the photographing lens is exposed and a position at which the photographing lens is covered. At least two pairs of support portions are placed in pairs at opposing positions on the two sides of the photographing lens and contribute to support the barrier member. At least four rail portions separately engage with at least the two pairs of support portions on the two sides of the photographing lens.

The present invention provides a waterproof camera having a sealed strobe movable between a flashing position and a non-flashing position and a sealed camera body having a larger volume than the strobe. The waterproof camera further comprises a capacitor for storing charge used to flash a strobe unit, a switch fitted in guide ditches on a barrier cover, which is used to detect that the strobe does not lie between the flashing position and the non-flashing position, with a barrier member between them, a capacitor discharge resistor for removing charge from the capacitor according to the output of the switch, a terminal and a connector pin for coupling the strobe with the capacitor so that the strobe and capacitor can be decoupled from each other freely in the camera, and for decoupling the capacitor from the strobe when the strobe moves to a position except those positions between the flashing position and non-flashing position, and a hollow tube for providing an air passage between the camera body and the sealed strobe.

A camera body includes a photographing lens. A barrier is supported on the camera body so as to be movable between a cover position covering the photographing lens and a retreat position retreated from the cover position in a first direction substantially parallel to an optical axis of the photographing lens and a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction. A rail mechanism is provided to guide relative movement between the camera body and the barrier in the first and the second directions of the barrier. The rail mechanism comprises a first slide projection, a second slide projection, a first cam portion and a second cam portion. The first slide projection has a predetermined projecting length and guides movement of the barrier. The second slide projection has a projecting length longer than the first slide projection and guides movement of the barrier. The first cam portion is slidably engaged with the first and the second slide projections and guides movement of the barrier in the second direction. The second cam portion, branched from the first cam means and slidably engaged with only the first slide projection, guides movement of the barrier in the first direction.

This invention is directed to a camera in which an ordinary or normal photographing image-plane size, a photographing image-plane size narrower or smaller than the normal photographing image-plane size, for example, a panoramic size, and the like are changeable, the camera comprising a back closure openable and closable with respect to a camera body, an aperture arranged between a film and a photographing lens, for regulating an exposure range corresponding to the normal photographing image-plane size, a light shielding unit arranged between the film and the photographing lens and so arranged as to be movable between a saving position where the light shielding unit is saved (i.e. spaced) from the inside of the aperture so as not to interrupt an exposure luminous flux incident upon the aperture and a projecting position where the light shielding unit projects inwardly of the aperture to interrupt a part or substantially all of the exposure luminous flux, an operating unit for assigning the narrow photographing image-plane size, a detecting unit for detecting at least one camera operating condition including a power source condition of the camera, an opening and closing condition of the back closure, a forcible rewinding condition of the film and an exposure condition to a film surface, and a drive unit for driving the exposure unit, the drive unit driving the light shielding unit to the inward-most projected position or a saved position in spite of assignment of the operating unit in accordance with an output from the detecting unit.
