Abstract
A digital camera capable of optimizing the circuit board disposition in a relationship with other parts when an optical system having refracting means for refracting the subject light is adopted, comprising: a body having a shape being flat in a subject direction when photographing; a refracting optical system having refracting means for refracting incident light from a subject in a direction vertical to the subject direction of the body; a power source portion supplying power to the image forming apparatus; and a circuit board disposed so as not to overlap with the refracting optical system and the power source portion in a direction of a thickness in the subject direction of the body.
Claims18
An image forming apparatus, comprising:
- a body having a shape being flat in a subject direction when photographing;
- a refracting optical system having refracting means for refracting incident light from a subject in a direction vertical to the subject direction;
- a power source portion for supplying power to the image forming apparatus;
- and
- a circuit board disposed so as not to overlap with the refracting optical system and the power source portion in a direction of a thickness in the subject direction of the body.
An image forming apparatus, comprising:
- a body having a shape being flat in a subject direction when photographing;
- a refracting optical system disposed at an end of the body, and having refracting means for refracting incident light from a subject in a direction vertical to the subject direction;
- and
- a power source portion for supplying power to the image forming apparatus, and disposed at an another end adjoining the end where the refracting optical system is disposed.
An image forming apparatus, comprising:
- a body having a shape being flat in a subject direction when photographing;
- a refracting optical system having refracting means for refracting incident light from a subject in a direction vertical to the subject direction of the body;
- and
- a display portion for displaying a taken image, and disposed so as not to overlap with the refracting optical system in the direction of a thickness in the subject direction of the body and to overlap with the refracting optical system in a direction vertical to the subject direction.
