Parallax correcting apparatus of a viewfinder

A parallax correcting apparatus of a viewfinder of a camera, comprising:

• a finder block which accommodates all optical elements of said viewfinder;
• a stationary base which is integral with the camera body, said finder block being mounted on said stationary base;
• a pivotal projection and a pivotal recess which are formed on one and the other of said finder block and said stationary base, so that said finder block is rotatably engaged with said stationary base via said pivotal projection and said pivotal recess to allow said finder block to rotate relative to said stationary base, a common axis of said pivotal projection and said pivotal recess being perpendicular to an optical axis of said viewfinder;
• a first adjustment mechanism for rotating said finder block about said common axis;
• a pair of vertical position adjustment mounts formed on said stationary base on opposite sides of said common axis in a front and rear direction of said camera;
• a second adjustment mechanism for adjusting a height of one of said pair of vertical position adjustment mounts with respect to a height of the other of said pair of vertical position adjustment mounts which serves as a reference height;
• a pair of fixing mounts formed on said stationary base on opposite sides of said common axis in a right and left direction of said camera;
• and
• a pair of fixing limbs formed on said finder block which are fixed to said pair of fixing mounts, respectively, after the orientation of said finder block is adjusted via said first adjustment mechanism and said second adjustment mechanism.
