Abstract
A camera including a built-in strobe light generating unit having a strobe capacitor and a red-eye reduction lamp to reduce red-eye phenomenon. The red-eye reduction lamp is positioned between the strobe light generating unit and the strobe capacitor. The strobe capacitor, red-eye reduction lamp and the strobe light generating unit are arranged in the vertical direction within the camera body. To provide a compact camera, the red-eye reduction lamp is located above the strobe capacitor in a space between a pair of terminals projecting from the strobe capacitor, and below the strobe light generating unit, in a cut-away portion of a strobe reflector.
Claims29
A camera, comprising:
- a strobe capacitor having a pair of projecting terminals;
- and
- a light generating member having at least a portion located between the pair of projecting terminals at a height in the camera which overlaps with a height of the pair of projecting terminals.
A camera, comprising:
- a strobe light generating unit;
- a strobe capacitor having a pair of terminals projecting from an end surface of the strobe capacitor;
- and
- a light generating member located between the strobe light generating unit and the strobe capacitor,
- wherein at least a portion of the light generating member is located between the pair of terminals projecting from the strobe capacitor at a height in the camera which overlaps with a height of the pair of projecting terminals.
A camera, comprising:
- a strobe capacitor having a pair of projecting terminals;
- and
- a light generating member having at least a portion located between the pair of projecting terminals, wherein the light generating member is positioned such that a line connecting the pair of projecting terminals intersects the light generating member.
A camera, comprising:
- a strobe light generating unit;
- a strobe capacitor having a pair of terminals projecting from an end surface of the strobe capacitor;
- and
- a light generating member located between the strobe light generating unit and the strobe capacitor,
- wherein at least a portion of the light generating member is located between the pair of terminals projecting from the strobe capacitor and is positioned such that a line connecting the pair of terminals intersects the light generating member.
A camera, comprising:
- a strobe capacitor having a pair of projecting terminals;
- and
- a light generating member having at least a portion located between the pair of projecting terminal, the portion being sandwiched between the pair of projecting terminals.
