Connector jack attaching structure and electronic camera

An electronic camera, comprising:

• a connector jack attaching structure for attaching a connector jack to a board;
• and
• a liquid crystal monitor, wherein:
• the connector jack attaching structure comprises a reinforcing member shaped to cover an outer circumference of the connector jack and having an attaching portion to be attached to the board, said reinforcing member comprising:
• a sheet metal member being connected to a ground;
• and
• an integrally formed spring portion which protrudes on a side opposite to the attaching portion;
• the spring portion is kept in elastic contact with a member adjacent to the board, thereby grounding the member;
• the connector jack is surface-mounted on the board;
• the outer circumference of the connector jack surface-mounted on the board is covered with the reinforcing member;
• the attaching portion of the reinforcing member is fixed to the board;
• the liquid crystal monitor has a metal member on a rear surface thereof and is held with a frame of a resin molding;
• and
• the metal member on the rear surface of the liquid crystal monitor is brought into elastic contact with the spring portion of the reinforcing member when the frame is fixed in the camera, thereby grounding the metal member on the rear surface of the liquid crystal monitor through the reinforcing member.
