A lens barrel includes a plurality of lens units, a plurality of cams arranged to respectively cause the plurality of lens units which are being rotated around an optical axis during a focusing action to move in the optical axis direction, at least one of the plurality of cams being a range varying cam which causes a moving range of the associated lens unit to vary according to a magnification varying state, and a rotary driving member arranged to be rotated around the optical axis by a manual operation or by a motor, wherein the plurality of lens units are interlinked with the rotary driving member in such a way as to be movable in the optical axis direction relative to the rotary driving member independently of each other and rotatable integrally with the rotary driving member.

A lens-interchangeable camera includes a focus detector performing focus detection and a controller performing a drive control of a lens based on a defocus amount. The controller finishes focusing operation without driving the lens when the defocus amount is out a range of a first in-focus determination width, and performs the focusing operation when the defocus amount is out a range of the first in-focus determination width. The controller finishes the focusing operation without performing the focus detection again after completing the drive when the defocus amount is out a range of a second in-focus determination width, and performs the focus detection again after completing the drive when the defocus amount is out a range of the second in-focus determination width. The second in-focus determination width is set to be greater than the first in-focus determination width and be greater than or equal to a drive limit value.

A light quantity control device includes a diaphragm for controlling an incident light quantity and an ND filter insertable into and retractable from an effective ray in a plane approximately perpendicular to an optical axis, and inserts the ND filter into the effective ray before small-aperture diffraction occurs, and also controls the amount of relative movement between the diaphragm and the ND filter to prevent occurrence of shading due to an edge of the ND filter and a variation in brightness during the insertion of the ND filter.

A filter driving device has a first optical filter, a second optical filter and a rotary driving member. The rotary driving member is arranged such that, when the rotary driving, member is rotated in a predetermined direction, the rotary driving member drives the first and second optical filter members to bring about three filter setting states including a state in which the first optical filter is located on an optical path, another state in which the second optical filter is located on the optical path and a further state in which neither of the first and second optical filters is located on the optical path.

A lens barrel includes a fixed tube, a moving tube arranged to move in the direction of an optical axis over the outer circumference of the fixed tube and to have a cutout part, and a band-like circuit board disposed around the optical axis on the outside of the fixed tube and having a part located inside the moving tube within an area corresponding to the cutout part and a part located outside the moving tube within an area other than the area corresponding to the cutout part.

An image stabilizer for stabilizing an image against unexpected vibrations or shaking of a zoom lens includes a diaphragm arranged to vary its full-open aperture diameter according to a magnification varying (zooming) action from a wide-angle end position to a telephoto end position of the zoom lens for the purpose of preventing variations in light quantity which more conspicuously take place in the peripheral part than in the central part of an image plane when an image stabilizing action is performed.

An apparatus having an image blur correcting function comprises a first unit including an image blur correction apparatus, a second unit rotatable about a first axis differing from a photo-taking optical axis relative to the first unit, a vibration detector provided in the second unit for detecting rotational vibration about the first unit, and a controller for operating the image blur apparatus in conformity with the output of the vibration detector.
摘要:
An image blur prevention apparatus including a detection device that detects a preparatory operation of an operation portion, such as the open or closed state of a cover member for a battery chamber, and, when the detection device detects a preparatory operation of the operation portion (indicating, e.g., a high probability of detachment of the power source), a movable member of the image blur prevention device is locked at a predetermined position, even if such detection occurs in the course of an image blur prevention operation.
摘要:
An image blur prevention apparatus for use with an image blur prevention device which prevents image blur and a restricting device which restricts movement of the image blur prevention device. The apparatus includes a releasing device which releases the image blur prevention device from a restricted state in which movement of the image blur prevention device is prevented by the restricting device and a holding device which holds a released state in which the image blur prevention device is released from the restricted state. The holding device holds the released state in a holding operation when electric current is supplied thereto. Operation of the holding device switches from the holding operation to a state in which the holding operation is not effected, when the supply of electric current is substantially discontinued.
