A lens holder having a cylindrical lens frame which holds at least one pair of lenses, wherein said lens frame is provided with a lens abutting surface which comes into contact with a first lens to restrict an axial position thereof. The first lens is provided with a positioning reference surface against which the second lens abuts to determine the axial position thereof. A molding die assembly which is used to mold the lens frame is also disclosed.

A light intercepting apparatus of a lens barrel has a pair of lens frames which support a pair of lens groups, with the lens groups being movable with respect to one another in an optical axis direction. The apparatus further includes a light intercepting portion which isolates an optical path between the lens groups from external light. The light intercepting portion includes a pair of annular light intercepting members which are supported by the pair of lens frames in a manner such that the pair of annular light intercepting members are movable with respect to each other in the optical axis direction. The pair of annular light intercepting members include a pair of engaging portions which define a latch portion of the light intercepting apparatus and which prevent motion of the annular light intercepting members beyond a maximum extended position of the pair of annular light intercepting members.

A camera having an apparatus for adjusting a back focus by varying a distance between a rearmost point of lens groups of a photographing optical system and focal plane. The apparatus includes a stationary barrel that supports the lens groups and is fixed to the camera body, and a restricting mechanism that is provided between the camera body and the stationary barrel. The restricting mechanism restricts rotational movement of the stationary barrel with respect to the camera body, while allowing movement of the stationary barrel in an optical axis direction with respect to the camera body.

An encoder for detecting a forward/reverse movement of a rotatable object includes a rotating shaft that is supported on a base and rotates in accordance with the movement of the subject, two rotating disks fixed to the rotating shaft, and two photocouplers mounted on the base which are associated with the disks. Each of said rotating disks is formed with a predetermined light modulating pattern to vary the intensity of light along a circumferential direction. Each of the photocouplers emits a light toward the rotating disk and detects the light modulated by the pattern on the rotating disk. The angular relationship between the rotating disks is selected such that the output signals from the photocouplers due to the rotation of the rotating shaft have a predetermined phase difference.

A method for producing a male helicoid molding die which is adapted to manufacture an inner barrel having a male helicoid, and for producing a female helicoid molding die which is adapted to manufacture an outer barrel having a female helicoid which can engage with said male helicoid of the inner barrel. The method includes the steps of firstly, setting an included angle of trapezoidal threads of the male helicoid to be identical to an included angle of trapezoidal grooves of the female helicoid in a section perpendicular to a direction of an extension of the threads and preparing a cutting tool having an angle identical to the set angle. Secondly, the male helicoid molding die is machined to form a helicoid portion thereof using the cutting tool. Next, an electric spark machining electrode is prepared having a helicoid portion whose shape is identical to a shape of the helicoid portion of the male helicoid molding die, by a mechanical cutting operation, using the cutting tool. Then a helicoid portion of the female helicoid molding die is formed by electric spark machining using the electric spark machining electrode.

The exposure controlling device comprises a controlling unit that controls, at the time of an exposure, the DC motor to rotate forward to open the shutter blades and then to rotate reversely to close the shutter blades, a calculating unit that calculates a time period for driving the DC motor in the forward direction between a predetermined starting point and a point where a required aperture area is obtained, a timer for counting the time period from the starting point, a memory for storing data of relationship between the time period and the aperture area, and means for storing an individual data of the relationship into the memory. The calculating unit calculates the time period based on a required aperture area by using the data of relationship stored in the memory for compensating individual differences among lens shutters.
