Endoscope

An endoscope comprising:

• an insertion portion having a bendable portion being attached thereto, the bendable portion being bendable at least upwardly and downwardly;
• a manipulator disposed on a proximal end side of the insertion portion and having a grip that is gripped by a user;
• a bend manipulating member disposed on the manipulator and standing up in a predetermined neutral direction when not manipulated, the bend manipulating member being tiltable in at least a first direction and a second direction;
• a finger rest which is disposed on an end portion of the bend manipulating member positioned outside of the manipulator and on which the user places a thumb thereof while gripping the grip;
• an arcuate first finger rest face serving as an outer surface of the finger rest that extends in the first direction away from the thumb, and extending about a first central point and having a first radius;
• and
• an arcuate second finger rest face serving as an outer surface of the finger rest that extends in the second direction closer to the thumb than the first finger rest face, and extending about a second central point positioned further in the first direction than the first central point and having a second radius.

An endoscope comprising:

• an insertion portion including a bendable portion;
• a manipulator disposed on a proximal end side of the insertion portion and having a grip;
• a shaft disposed outward from the manipulator and standing up in a neutral direction when not manipulated and configured to be tilted toward at least the insertion portion and the grip;
• a finger rest disposed on an end portion of the shaft, the finger rest having an outer surface, the outer surface including a first surface and a second surface,
• the first surface being arcuate and located on the side of the insertion portion and extending about a first central point and having a first radius,
• the second surface being arcuate and located on the side of the grip and extending about a second central point and having a second radius, the second central point being positioned closer to the insertion portion than the first central point.
