る。In a portable telephone, components such as a display, various buttons, a microphone, a speaker, and an antenna must be efficiently arranged in a limited space. Therefore, the mounting position of the camera body is greatly restricted as in the case of other components. Heretofore, there has been a case where a rectangular notch is formed on a side surface or an upper end surface of a housing constituting a telephone main body, and a camera main body is rotatably attached thereto. The reason why the camera body is rotatably mounted is that the camera can be aimed at the subject.
