Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate adjustment of an image-pickup direction and to prevent an image reflected in the inside of a window from being image picked up in the case of picking up image through the outside of the window by fixing the electronic camera in a direction desired of image pickup in the case of conducting image pickup for many objects such as an aircraft, a train, an automobile or a building or the like through the window glass thereof over a long time. SOLUTION: A stationary section 1 is provided in front of an electronic camera to fix the electronic camera onto a window glass. Since a sucker or an adhesive member is used for the stationary section 1, the stationary section 1 can be mounted easily, removed easily and fixed strongly, without falling off due to vibration. Since a hood section 3 prevents light from a back side, this side of the window is not photographed, even if this side is bright. A ground object is photographed through a window of an aircraft, and an object in the horizontal direction is photographed through a front glass of an automobile by setting an angle between the stationary section 1 and the photographing direction of the electronic camera to be around 45 degrees. Since the electronic camera is supported freely turnably by a support section 4, the photographing direction is properly adjusted.

When the photographer wants to take an image while looking at the scenery outside the window, he presses the shutter to image the scenery outside the window. In addition, an image is taken at regular intervals by a timer, and unnecessary video is deleted later. When used in a window of a public transportation system, it is preferable to use a suction cup or an adhesive member for the fixing portion in order to easily and without removing the glass. As the adhesive member, for example, an adhesive urethane rubber can be used. In the case of private use and long-term use, it is preferable to use an adhesive member because it can be stably fixed for a long period of time. As the adhesive member, an adhesive for glass or a double-sided adhesive tape can be used. According to the present invention, even if the inside of the window is bright and there is illumination, for example, it is possible to prevent the hood portion of the fixture from being reflected on the glass surface. The mounting portion of the fixing portion of the fixing tool can have the same function as the hood portion.
