摘要:
The image taking apparatus of the invention includes a light quantity control device that is arranged on the optical axis of subject light and controls transmitted volume of the subject light. The light quantity control device includes a light quantity control layer and a pair of light-transmissive electrodes. The light quantity control layer expands and contracts in accordance with an electric field generated therein and thereby changes the transmitted volume of the subject light. The electrodes are disposed so as to sandwich the light quantity control layer and generate an electric field in the light quantity control layer, in response to application of voltage, thereby causing the light quantity control layer to expand and contract.

An optical barrel includes an outer wall and space members. The outer wall has a plurality of tube members which are each in tube form and are engaged one another in such a manner that one tube is inserted inside another and are relatively moved by a driving force. The space members are mounted between the plurality of tube members which open and close the spaces between the plurality of tube members by expanding and contracting in response to application and release of a voltage.

An image-taking apparatus which captures object light to take an image includes: an optical device through which the object light is transmitted; an image pickup device which generates an image signal representing an object image; and a cleaning section which is deformed by receiving a predetermined stimulus, the cleaning section being brought into contact with, and being separated from, the optical device and/or the image pickup device to clean substances attached to the contact portion. The apparatus further includes: a stimulus application section which applies the stimulus to the cleaning section; and a control section which controls the deformation of the cleaning section by controlling the stimulus applied from the stimulus application section, and which thus causes the cleaning section to clean the contact portion.

The present invention provides an optical information recording medium (2) capable of shortening a time from acquiring identification information to starting a program etc. recorded on an ROM layer. The optical information recording medium (2) includes two or more information recording layers, information of each of the two or more information recording layers is readable by emitting reproducing light thereto, at least one of said two or more information recording layers is an RE/R layer (4), at least another one of said two or more information recording layers is an ROM layer (5), and the RE/R layer (4) includes an identification information recording region (41), and an interlayer-movement Flag is recorded on the identification information recording region (41).

By adding a predetermined offset value which is not less than 0 to, to the value of a readout power at a time when readout power control operations are temporarily suspended, i.e., at a time when an optical head initiates a seek operation, with an adder, this latter value being stored in a readout power value storage circuit, because an optical recording medium readout apparatus makes it possible to cause the value of the readout power at the time when readout power control operations resume, i.e., at the time of completion of the seek operation performed by the optical head, to avoid abnormal power domains in which change in amplitude ratio with respect to change in readout power is not monotonically decreasing, it is made possible to avoid abnormal conditions such as occurrence of lag in response during readout power control operations.

An invention disclosed includes a layer number obtaining section (222) for determining which information storage layer (L1) has been accessed and a layer type identifying section (223) for identifying a type of the information storage layer (L1) determined by the layer number obtaining section (222). With the configuration, even in a case where an information recording and reproducing apparatus accesses an information storage layer different from an intended information storage layer by false operation or the like, it is still possible to dissolve mismatching between a recording or reproduction control scheme being set up and a recording or reproduction control scheme suitable for the information storage layer thus accessed.
