Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes an apparatus main body including a lens mount to which a lens device is detachably attachable, and at least two protruding portions protruding further to a front side in a direction of an optical axis than a mount surface on which the lens mount is provided. Amounts of protrusion in the direction of the optical axis of the at least two protruding portions are approximately the same.
Claims21
An imaging apparatus comprising:
- an apparatus main body including:
- a lens mount which is provided on a front surface of the apparatus main body and to which a lens device is detachably attachable,
- a plurality of protruding portions provided on the front surface such that the lens mount is positioned between the plurality of protruding portions,
- a tripod thread portion provided on a lower surface of the apparatus main body,
- an air intake port provided on a left side surface of the apparatus main body as viewed from a side of the front surface with the lower surface facing down,
- an air exhaust port provided on a right side surface of the apparatus main body as viewed from a side of the front surface with the lower surface facing down, the air exhaust port having a height H2 relative to the right side surface,
- a right side protrusion provided on the right side surface of the apparatus main body and having a height H4 relative to the right side surface, and
- a duct unit configured to exhaust air taken in through the air intake port from the air exhaust port,
- wherein the plurality of protruding portions is positioned protruding further to a front side of the apparatus main body than the lens mount,
- a width of the plurality of protruding portions as viewed from the side of the front surface is wider than a diameter of an opening portion on which the lens mount is provided, and
- H2 is different from H4 such that the air exhaust port is not blocked if the imaging apparatus main body is placed upon a flat surface with the right side surface facing down.
