Estimating the term…
A camera has a slide case for covering a taking lens of the camera. The slide case is slidably attached to a camera body and is set at an unused position, a photographing position, a battery exchange position and a cartridge exchange position. When the slide case is set at the cartridge exchange position, a cartridge lid of a cartridge chamber is openable so that a film cartridge is exchangeable. When the slid case is set at the unused position, the photographing position or the battery exchange position, the slide case covers at least a part of the cartridge lid so that it is impossible to open the cartridge lid. A lock mechanism of the cartridge lid is simplified so that the size of the camera may be reduced. A battery chamber for containing a battery is disposed above an exposure aperture and close thereto so that the height of the camera may be lowered.
