被拍體之拍攝範圍者,以位於在相機本體1前面中之右上 位置的狀態下,如第1圖以及第2圖所示,爲設置成由相 機本體1之前面連續貫通至後面。 在該種相機本體1之內部中,係如第3圖所示,爲對應 於相機本體1之採光孔9而設有拍攝單元1 0。該拍攝單元 馨 1 〇係具備有分別被配置在光軸1 3上之拍攝透鏡1 1以及拍 攝部1 2。在此情況下,相機本體1前面之採光孔9係將其 中心與光軸1 3 —致,經由透鏡蓋6而與拍攝透鏡1 1對應。 此外,拍攝透鏡Π係爲一種使被拍體之影像擷取至相機本 體1內、且成像至拍攝部1 2者。拍攝部1 2係構成爲,具 備有CCD等之固體拍攝元件,且被配置在拍攝透鏡11之 影像面側(在第3圖中係爲下部),將以拍攝透鏡1 1所成 -10- 1231888 像之影像作爲影像資料來擷取。 不過,透鏡蓋6係位在相機本體1前面之採光孔9與拍 攝透鏡1之間,且以驅動裝置14而移動在光路上(在第3 圖中以實線所表示之位置)與光路外(在第3圖中以兩點 鏈線所表示之位置),藉此,以構成爲開閉拍攝單元1 0之 光路。亦即,該透鏡蓋6係如第3圖所示,爲由些許大於 相機本體1前面之採光孔9的圓板部1 5、以及設在該圓板 部1 5之臂部1 6所形成,該臂部1 6係被安裝成可迴轉於設 在相機本體1內之支撐軸17,且構成爲以該支撐軸17爲中 · 心來旋轉移動圓板部1 5。 驅動裝置1 4係具備有使透鏡蓋6迴轉之驅動源1 8、以 及彈簧構件1 9。驅動源1 8係構成爲,由電磁螺形線圈或馬 , 達等所形成,且使本體部1 8a固定在相機本體1內,作動 部1 8b則連結臂部1 6,在此種狀態下,本體部1 8a爲藉由 使作動部1 8b往復移動而將支撐軸1 7作爲中心、使臂部1 6 對抗彈簧構件1 9之彈力而迴轉,藉此,構成爲使透鏡蓋6 之圓板部1 5由光路上移動至光路外。彈簧構件1 9係爲, · 一端部爲被安裝在相機本體1內、另一端部則被安裝在臂 部1 6,藉此,爲使透鏡蓋6施加作用力於光'路上移動之方 向上。 此外,該種透鏡蓋6係具備有用以映照被拍體之影像的 鏡面機能。亦即,在該種透鏡蓋6之前面中的中央部、亦 即爲在對應於拍攝透鏡1 1之部分上,如第3圖所示,設有 凸面鏡2 0。該凸面鏡2 0係一種當拍攝者本身進行自我拍攝 -11- 1231888 時,用以通過相機本體1前面之採光孔9、得以看見所映照 之自我本身之影像者,且形成爲適於自我拍攝之曲率半徑 的凸曲面,藉以將映照在該凸面鏡20之影像與拍攝角度、 亦即爲以拍攝部1 2所拍攝之影像(畫角)形成爲略成相同 大小。 其次,針對該電子相機之動作流程,參照第4圖進行說 明。 在開始該動作流程後,便判斷是否已開啓電源(步驟 S 1 ),倘若電源開啓,則判斷是否具有拍攝者本身進行自我 φ 拍攝時的拍攝模式(步驟S2 )。此時,在選擇自我拍攝之 拍攝模式後便關閉透鏡蓋6 (步驟S3 )。亦即,使透鏡蓋6 之驅動裝置1 4驅動,使臂部1 6對抗彈簧構件1 9之彈力、 以支撐軸17爲中心來迴轉,使透鏡蓋6之圓板部15移動 在光路上(在第3圖中爲以實線來表示之位置)。藉此,設 在透鏡蓋6之凸面鏡20爲對應於相機本體1前面之採光孔 9,而形成爲可看見將拍攝者本身映照在該凸面鏡20上。 在此狀態下,爲將相機本體1朝向拍攝者,以將拍攝者 · 本身的臉部映照在凸面鏡2 0上,看見映照在凸面鏡2 0之 自我本身之臉部、進而決定拍攝角度。此時,將拍攝參數 (例如,爲用以強調膚色或是雨側背景等,而開啓光圈等 的拍攝參數)設定在於自我拍攝之拍攝中的最佳狀態(步 驟S4 )。並且,判斷是否已半按壓快門鈕4、開啓第一階段 之開關(步驟S5 )。此時,倘若並未按壓快門鈕4,則待機 直到被按壓爲止,而當快門鈕4被按壓、且開啓第一階段 -12- 1231888 之開關後,便開啓透鏡蓋6 (步驟S 6 )。亦即,使透鏡蓋6 之驅動裝置1 4驅動,使臂部1 6對抗於彈簧構件1 9之彈力 而以支撐軸1 7爲中心來迴轉,並使透鏡蓋6之圓板部1 5 移動至光路外(在第3圖中係以兩點鏈線所表示之位置)。 藉此’係形成爲可藉由拍攝單元1 0來進行拍攝之狀態, 因此’進行焦點調節(A F )以及曝光調節(A E )(步驟S 7 ), 判斷是否已更加按壓快門鈕4、而開啓第二階段之開關(步 驟S 8 )’倘若並未開啓第二階段之開關時,則回到步驟s 5, 重複上述之動作。並且,在開啓第二階段之開關後,便實 · 施拍攝者本身之拍攝(步驟S 9 ),將以拍攝透鏡1 1所成像 之影像藉由拍攝部1 2而作爲影像資料來擷取。之後,回到 步驟S 1、重複上述之自我拍攝之動作。 此時’倘若在步驟S 2中並未選擇拍攝者本身進行自我拍 攝時的拍攝模式時,便判斷爲一般的拍攝模式、亦即爲拍 攝風景或人物等的拍攝模式。在該種一般的拍攝模式時, 拍攝者爲睽視光學取景部8、決定對於被拍體之拍攝角度, 因而開啓透鏡蓋6 (步驟S 1 0 )。亦即,爲使透鏡蓋6之驅 馨 動裝置14驅動,將臂部1 6對抗於彈簧構件1 9之彈力、以 支撐軸1 7爲中心而迴轉,並使透鏡蓋6之圓板部1 5移動 至光路外(在第3圖中係以兩點鏈線所表示之位置)。藉此, 爲形成可藉由拍攝單元1 0來進行拍攝之狀態。 在此狀態下,當拍攝者睽視光學取景部8、決定對於被 拍體之拍攝角度時,將拍攝參數設定在適於風景或人物之 狀態(步驟s 1 1 ),判斷是否已半按壓快門鈕4、開啓第一 -13- 1231888 階段之開關(步驟S 1 2 )。此時,倘若並未按壓快門鈕4, 則待機直到被按壓爲止,而當快門鈕4被按壓、且開啓第 一階段之開關後,便進行焦點調節(AF )以及曝光調節(AE ) (步驟S 1 3 ),判斷是否已更加按壓快門鈕4、而開啓第二 階段之開關(步驟S 1 4 ),倘若並未開啓第二階段之開關時, 則回到步驟S 1 2,重複上述之動作。 ’ 並且,在開啓快門鈕4之第二階段之開關後,便實施風 景等之一般的拍攝(步驟S 1 5 ),將以拍攝透鏡1 1所成像之 影像藉由拍攝部1 2而作爲影像資料來擷取。之後,回到步 鲁 驟S 1、重複上述之一般拍攝之動作。此時,因透鏡蓋6爲 經常的開啓,因此可進行連續拍攝。此外,在此種狀態下, 當在步驟S2中選擇自我拍攝之拍攝模式時,便前進至步驟 S 3,進行如上所述之自我拍攝的拍攝動作(步驟S 3至步驟 S9 )。此外,當形成爲在步驟S 1關閉電源時,便使透鏡蓋 6之驅動裝置1 4驅動、關閉透鏡蓋6 (步驟S 1 6 )、結束該 動作流程。 如此,若藉由此種電子相機時,係將映照被拍體之影像 · 的凸面鏡20設在保護拍攝透鏡1 1之透鏡蓋6上,因此, 除了可獲得在外觀方面、設計性方面均佳之物外,在拍攝 者本身進行自我拍攝時,係通過相機本體1之採光孔9而 將自我本身之影像映照在透鏡蓋6之凸面鏡20上、進而可 確認拍攝範圍。此時’將映照在透鏡蓋6之凸面鏡20的影 像與藉由拍攝單元1 0所拍攝之影像雙方位在相同的光軸1 3 上,藉此而將雙方之光軸1 3 —致化,因此係不致產生視差/ -14- 1231888 而可將視線合一、進行正確的拍攝。特別是藉由將設置在 透鏡蓋6之凸面鏡形成爲適合於自我進行拍攝之拍攝中的 曲率半徑之凸曲面,藉以將映照在該凸面鏡20之影像與拍 攝角度、亦即爲以拍攝部1 2所拍攝之被拍體之影像形成爲 略成相同大小。因此,可更加進行正確的拍攝。此外,凸 面鏡2 0亦可形成爲由透鏡蓋6拆卸。若使僅在自我拍攝時 安裝在透鏡蓋6時,則一般的電子相機之外觀係可形成爲 更佳之物。 〔第2實施例〕 φ 其次,參照第5圖以及第6圖,針對將本發明之拍攝裝 置適用在電子相機之第2實施例來進行說明。此外,與在 第1圖至第4圖所示之第1實施例相同部分方面爲付與相 同符號而進行說明。 該種電子相機係爲,在透鏡蓋6之圓板部1 5之中央部、 亦即爲與拍攝透鏡1 1對應之處上,形成具有鏡面機能之分 光鏡2 5的構造,除此以外係形成爲略與第1實施例相同的 構造。亦即,在透鏡蓋6之圓板部1 5之中央部上,係如第 鲁 5圖以及第6圖所示,設有將矩形狀之開口部26貫通於表 裏面。此外,分光鏡2 5所具有之構造係爲一種在由丙烯酸 或聚碳酸酯等有機玻璃或是無機玻璃形成之透明板25a之 裏面(在第6圖中係爲下面),形成具有光透過性之半透過 型的金屬蒸鍍膜25b,且被嵌入至透鏡蓋6之圓板部15之 開口部26內。 在此種電子相機中,係將分光鏡25形成在透鏡蓋6之圓 -15- 1231888 板部1 5的中央部,因此即便使透鏡蓋6之圓板部1 5對應 於拍攝透鏡1 1而進行配置,因相機本體1內之拍攝透鏡1 1 側係爲較暗,故而通過相機本體1之採光孔9、爲可看見映 照在分光鏡2 5上之拍攝者本身的影像。因此,除了可獲得 與第1實施例相同的在外觀方面、設計性方面均佳者以外, 當拍攝者本身進行自我拍攝時,爲在透鏡蓋6之分光鏡25 上映照出自我本身之影像而可確認拍攝範圍。 即使在此情況下,爲可將映照在透鏡蓋6之分光鏡2 5上 之影像以及以拍攝單元1 0所拍攝之影像雙方位在相同光軸 1 3上,藉此而呈現一致狀,因此,係不致產生視差,而可 將視線合一而進行正確的拍攝。特別是在此情況下,係可 通過分光鏡25而擷取某種程度之外部的光,因此,不僅是 可形成焦點調節(AF )以及曝光調節(AE ),係可將拍攝 者本身之影像藉由拍攝部1 2而作爲影像資料來擷取,而可 使該種已擷取之影像資料顯示於設在相機本體1後面的顯 示部2。 〔第3實施例〕 其次,參照第7圖,針對將本發明之拍攝裝置適用在電 子相機之第3實施例來進行說明。即使在此情況下,將與 在第1圖至第4圖所示之第1實施例相同部分方面爲付與 相同符號而進行說明。 該種電子相機係爲,爲將平面鏡3 0設成跨越透鏡蓋6之 圓板部1 5中之前面、亦即爲位在被拍體側之表面(在第7 圖中爲上面)的整個區域,除此以外係形成爲略與第1實 -16- 1231888 施例相同的構造。在此情況下,圓板部1 5係使其前面形成 爲平坦面,平面鏡3 0則將金屬蒸鍍膜形成爲跨越圓板部1 5 之平坦狀前面的構造。 在此種電子相機中,係將平面鏡3 0設在於透鏡蓋6之圓 板部15中之前面的整個區域上,因此,除了具有與第1實 施例相同之作用效果之外,特別是僅需將金屬蒸鍍膜跨越 整個區域而形成在圓板部1 5之前面上即可,因此,可簡單 且容易地將平面鏡3 0設在透鏡蓋6上,因此,可獲得比第 1實施例之構件更爲低價格之物。 φ 此外,在上述第3實施例中,爲將透鏡蓋6之圓板部1 5 形成爲平坦面,雖將平面鏡3 0設在該圓板部1 5,不過,並 非僅限定於此,亦可將圓板部1 5之表面形成緩和狀之凸曲 面,亦可將其表面藉由金屬蒸鍍而形成爲大於第1實施例 之曲率半徑、且緩和狀之曲面的凸面鏡,此外,並非一定 要設爲凸曲面,亦可將圓板部15之表面形成爲凹曲面,且 在該表面上將凹面鏡藉由金屬蒸鍍來形成之構造。此外, 並非僅限定於此,亦可將圓板部1 5整體形成與第2實施例 鲁 相同的分光鏡。在此情況下,係將透鏡蓋6以透明的合成 樹脂來形成,且亦可在該透鏡蓋6之圓板部上形成具有透 光性之半透過型之金屬蒸鍍膜。即使在此種構造中,亦具 有與第2實施例相同的作用效果。 〔第4實施例〕 其次,參照第8圖,針對將本發明之拍攝裝置適用在電 子相機之第4實施例來進行說明。即使在此情況下,將與 -17- !231888 在第1圖至第4圖所示之第1實施例相同部分方面爲付與 相同符號而進行說明。 該種電子相機係爲,將透鏡蓋6分割成第一透鏡蓋3 5與 第二透鏡蓋36之雙方,第一透鏡蓋35、第二透鏡蓋36係 構成爲在關閉拍攝透鏡1 1之被拍體側時形成爲一體化,而 在開啓時則相互分離、分割狀,除此以外係形成爲與第1 實施例略爲相同之構造。 亦即,第一透鏡蓋3 5係由約略封閉拍攝透鏡〗1之被拍 體側之一半的半圓部37、以及設在該半圓部37之臂部38 所形成,且將該臂部3 8以可迴轉狀地安裝於設在相機本體 1內之支撐軸39,構成爲在此狀態下爲藉由第一驅動裝置40 而將半圓部3 7以支撐軸3 9爲中心狀地進行迴轉移動。此 外,第二透鏡蓋36係與第一透鏡蓋35相同的,係由約略 封閉位於與第一透鏡蓋3 5之半圓部3 7相反位置上之拍攝 透鏡1 1之被拍體側之一半的半圓部4 1、以及設在該半圓部 4 1之臂部42所形成,且將該臂部42以可迴轉狀地安裝於 設在相機本體1內之支撐軸43,構成爲在此狀態下爲藉由 第二驅動裝置44而將半圓部4 1以支撐軸43爲中心狀地進 行迴轉移動。 在此情況下,第一透鏡蓋3 5、第二透鏡蓋3 6之各個半 圓部3 7、4 1係如第8圖所示,係構成爲在封閉拍攝透鏡1 1 之被拍體側時,爲將光軸1 3作爲中心而一體化成圓形狀。 此外,在該第一透鏡蓋35、第二透鏡蓋36之各個半圓部37、 41中,係分別設有第一、第二凸面鏡45、46。該等第一、 1231888 第二凸面鏡45、46係構成爲,當將各半圓部37、41 一體 化成圓形時,在其中央部上係形成與第1實施例之凸面鏡2 0 相同構造的凸面鏡。此外,第一、第二驅動裝置40、44係 形成爲與第1實施例之驅動裝置1 4爲相同的構造。 在該種電子相機中,藉由第一、第二驅動裝置40、44, 而使第一透鏡蓋35、第二透鏡蓋36之各個半圓部37、41 以支撐軸39、43爲中心而進行迴轉移動、且配置在拍攝透 鏡1 1之被拍體側上,如第8圖所示,爲將各半圓部3 7、4 1 以光軸1 3爲中心而一體化成圓形,藉此,亦使各半圓部3 7、 φ 41之第一、第二凸面鏡45、46形成一體化、且形成爲與第 1實施例之凸面鏡20相同的凸面鏡。因此,與第1實施例 相同的,當拍攝者本身進行拍攝之自我拍攝時,係通過相 機本體1之採光孔9,而可看見將自我本身之影像映照至第 一透鏡蓋35、第二透鏡蓋36之第一、第二凸面鏡45、46, 藉此,係不致產生視差,而可將視線合一而進行正確的拍 攝。 此外,在此種電子相機中,半按壓快門鈕4、開啓第一 鲁 階段之開關而關閉第一、第二透鏡蓋3 5、3 6時,以及更加 地按壓該快門鈕4、開啓第二階段之開關而開啓第一、第二 透鏡蓋3 5、3 6時,係將第一、第二透鏡蓋3 5、3 6分割爲 二,因此,可將對於拍攝透鏡Π之開閉速度加快成高於第 1實施例之物,藉此爲可進行更快速的拍攝,因此,即使在 進行自我拍攝之攝影時、在進行連續攝影時,均可獲得使 用便利性較佳之物。 -19- 1231888 〔第5實施例〕 其次,參照第9圖,針對將本發明之拍攝裝置適用在電 子相機之第5實施例來進行說明。在此情況下,將與在第8 圖所示之第4實施例相同部分方面爲付與相同符號而進行 說明。 該種電子相機係爲,除了在已組裝有拍攝透鏡1 1以及拍 ’ 攝部1 2之鏡筒5 0中安裝第一、第二透鏡蓋3 5、3 6的構造 以外,係形成爲與第4實施例相同的構造。亦即,第一、 第二透鏡蓋35、36係分別將各個臂部38、42之各支撐軸39、 φ 43設置在鏡筒5 0之上端部,在此種狀態下,爲藉由第一、 第二驅動裝置(未圖示)而構成爲將支撐軸39、43作爲中 心而進行旋轉。 在此種電子相機中,除了具有與第4實施例相同之作用 效果以外,特別是藉由將拍攝透鏡1 1、拍攝部1 2、以及第 一、第二透鏡蓋3 5、3 6安裝至鏡筒5

此外’在上述第4、第5實施例中,雖然是分別將第一、 第二驅動裝置40、44設置在第一、第二透鏡蓋35、36而 -20- 1231888 分別獨立的進行驅動,不過,並非僅限定於此,亦可構成 爲藉由一個驅動裝置來連動第一、第二透鏡蓋3 5、3 6以同 時地進行驅動。倘若藉由如此,便可獲得構造簡單化、構 件數目亦少、且低價格之物。 再者,在上述第4、第5實施例中,雖針對分別將第一、 第二凸面鏡45、46設置在第一、第二透鏡蓋35、36之各 ' 個半圓部3 7、4 1的情況進行敘述,不過,並非僅限定於此, 亦可構成爲分別將第一、第二分光鏡設置在第一、第二透 鏡蓋35、36之各個半圓部37、41,當使第一、第二透鏡蓋 φ 3 5、3 6之各個半圓部3 7、4 1配置在對應於拍攝透鏡1 1之 位置上而封閉時,爲將第一、第二分光鏡形成爲與第2實 施例之分光鏡2

A shutter button 4 and a plurality of key buttons 5 are provided. The display unit 2 is a flat-type display such as a liquid crystal display element or an EL element (electric field light-emitting element). In addition to displaying the captured image, it is configured to display a through-image, display date, or Information such as shooting mode. Cursor key 3 is a switch that can operate 1231888 in the direction of the cross. It is configured to select the captured image or select the shooting mode. The shutter button 4 is a multi-stage switch that performs a two-stage pressing operation. In the half-pressed state, the switch is turned on in the first stage, and when it is pressed, it is in the fully-pressed state and turned on in the second stage. Most of the button 4 is a switch for selecting various menus. The front surface of the camera body 1 (closer to the viewer in FIG. 2) is provided with a lens cover 6, a flash unit 7, and an optical viewfinder 8 as shown in FIG. 2. The lens cover 6 is a light-opening hole 9 provided in the front of the camera body 1 in an openable and closable manner, and is disposed on the right side of the φ front side in the camera body 1. The flash unit 7 is a person who generates a flash when shooting, and is arranged at the center of the upper, middle, and upper portions of the front surface of the camera body 1. The optical viewfinder 8 is a person who confirms the shooting range of the subject when shooting a general shooting mode such as a landscape or a person, and is positioned in the upper right position in the front of the camera body 1, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the camera body 1 is provided so as to continuously penetrate from the front surface to the rear surface of the camera body 1. As shown in Fig. 3, the camera body 1 is provided with a photographing unit 10 corresponding to the lighting hole 9 of the camera body 1. This imaging unit Xin 10 is provided with an imaging lens 11 and an imaging unit 12 respectively arranged on the optical axis 13. In this case, the lighting hole 9 on the front of the camera body 1 is aligned with the optical axis 1 3 at its center, and corresponds to the photographing lens 11 through the lens cover 6. In addition, the shooting lens Π is a type that captures an image of the subject into the camera body 1 and forms an image into the photographing section 12. The imaging unit 12 is configured to include a solid-state imaging element such as a CCD, and is arranged on the image surface side of the imaging lens 11 (the lower part in FIG. 3). The 1231888 image is captured as image data. However, the lens cover 6 is located between the lighting hole 9 and the photographing lens 1 in front of the camera body 1, and is moved on the optical path (the position indicated by the solid line in FIG. 3) and outside the optical path by the driving device 14. (The position indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 3) is thereby configured to open and close the optical path of the photographing unit 10. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the lens cover 6 is formed by a circular plate portion 15 that is slightly larger than the lighting hole 9 on the front of the camera body 1 and an arm portion 16 provided on the circular plate portion 15. The arm portion 16 is mounted so as to be rotatable on a support shaft 17 provided in the camera body 1 and is configured to rotate and move the circular plate portion 15 with the support shaft 17 as a center and center. The driving device 14 includes a driving source 18 for rotating the lens cover 6 and a spring member 19. The driving source 18 is formed by an electromagnetic spiral coil or a horse, etc., and the main body portion 18a is fixed in the camera body 1, and the operating portion 18b is connected to the arm portion 16. In this state, The main body portion 18a is configured to make the circle of the lens cover 6 by revolving the actuating portion 18b with the support shaft 17 as the center and the arm portion 16 rotating against the elastic force of the spring member 19. The plate portion 15 moves from the optical path to the outside of the optical path. The spring member 19 is as follows: · One end is mounted in the camera body 1 and the other end is mounted on the arm 16 to thereby apply a force to the lens cover 6 in the direction of movement on the light path. . In addition, this lens cover 6 has a mirror function for reflecting an image of a subject. That is, as shown in Fig. 3, a central portion of the front surface of the lens cover 6 is a portion corresponding to the photographing lens 11 as shown in Fig. 3. The convex mirror 20 is a kind of person who can see the image of the self being reflected through the lighting hole 9 in front of the camera body 1 when the photographer is taking self-shooting 11-1231888, and is formed to be suitable for self-shooting. The convex curved surface with the radius of curvature is used to form the image and the shooting angle reflected on the convex mirror 20, that is, the image (picture angle) shot by the shooting section 12 is formed to have the same size. Next, the operation flow of the electronic camera will be described with reference to FIG. 4. After starting the operation flow, it is determined whether the power is turned on (step S1), and if the power is turned on, it is determined whether there is a shooting mode when the photographer himself performs self-phi shooting (step S2). At this time, the lens cover 6 is closed after the shooting mode for self-shooting is selected (step S3). That is, the driving device 14 of the lens cover 6 is driven to rotate the arm portion 16 against the elastic force of the spring member 19 and center around the support shaft 17 to move the circular plate portion 15 of the lens cover 6 on the optical path ( (The position shown by the solid line in Figure 3). Thereby, the convex mirror 20 provided in the lens cover 6 corresponds to the lighting hole 9 in the front of the camera body 1, and is formed so that the photographer himself can be reflected on the convex mirror 20. In this state, in order to point the camera body 1 toward the photographer, the photographer's own face is reflected on the convex mirror 20, and the face of the self reflected on the convex mirror 20 is seen to determine the shooting angle. At this time, set the shooting parameters (for example, shooting parameters to emphasize the skin tone or the rain-side background, etc., and open the aperture, etc.) to the optimal state in the self-shooting shooting (step S4). Then, it is determined whether the shutter button 4 has been pressed halfway and the first stage switch is turned on (step S5). At this time, if the shutter button 4 is not pressed, it waits until it is pressed, and when the shutter button 4 is pressed and the first stage -12-12888888 switch is turned on, the lens cover 6 is opened (step S 6). That is, the driving device 14 of the lens cover 6 is driven, the arm portion 16 is rotated around the support shaft 17 against the elastic force of the spring member 19, and the disc portion 15 of the lens cover 6 is moved. To the outside of the light path (the position indicated by the two-dot chain line in Figure 3). With this, 'the system is in a state where shooting can be performed by the shooting unit 10, so' focus adjustment (AF) and exposure adjustment (AE) 'are performed (step S7) to determine whether the shutter button 4 has been further pressed and opened Switch in the second stage (step S 8) 'If the switch in the second stage is not turned on, return to step s 5 and repeat the above-mentioned action. In addition, after the switch of the second stage is turned on, the photographer's own shooting is performed (step S 9), and the image formed by the shooting lens 11 is captured by the shooting section 12 as image data. After that, return to step S1 and repeat the self-shooting operation described above. At this time, if the shooting mode when the photographer himself performs the self-shooting is not selected in step S2, it is determined as a general shooting mode, that is, a shooting mode for shooting landscapes or people. In this general shooting mode, the photographer despises the optical viewfinder 8 and determines the shooting angle for the subject, so the lens cover 6 is opened (step S 1 0). That is, in order to drive the driving mechanism 14 of the lens cover 6, the arm portion 16 is rotated against the elastic force of the spring member 19 and is centered on the support shaft 17, and the disc portion 1 of the lens cover 6 is rotated. 5 Move to the outside of the light path (the position indicated by the two-dot chain line in Figure 3). Thereby, a state in which shooting can be performed by the shooting unit 10 is established. In this state, when the photographer despises the optical viewfinder 8 and decides the shooting angle for the subject, the shooting parameters are set to a state suitable for scenery or people (step s 1 1), and it is determined whether the shutter is half-pressed Button 4. Turn on the first 13-1231888 stage switch (step S 1 2). At this time, if the shutter button 4 is not pressed, it waits until it is pressed, and when the shutter button 4 is pressed and the first stage switch is turned on, focus adjustment (AF) and exposure adjustment (AE) are performed (steps) S 1 3), to determine whether the shutter button 4 has been pressed further and the second stage switch is turned on (step S 1 4). If the second stage switch has not been turned on, then return to step S 1 2 and repeat the above action. 'Furthermore, after the second-stage switch of the shutter button 4 is turned on, general shooting of landscapes and the like is performed (step S 1 5), and the image formed by the shooting lens 11 is used as the image by the shooting section 12 Data to retrieve. After that, return to step S1. Repeat the above-mentioned general shooting action. At this time, since the lens cover 6 is constantly opened, continuous shooting is possible. In addition, in this state, when the self-shooting shooting mode is selected in step S2, the process proceeds to step S3 to perform the self-shooting shooting operation as described above (steps S3 to S9). In addition, when the power is turned off in step S1, the driving device 14 of the lens cover 6 is driven to close and close the lens cover 6 (step S1 6), and the operation flow is ended. In this way, if such an electronic camera is used, a convex mirror 20 that reflects the image of the subject is provided on the lens cover 6 that protects the photographic lens 11. Therefore, in addition to obtaining an excellent appearance and design, Outside the object, when the photographer is shooting himself, the self-image is reflected on the convex mirror 20 of the lens cover 6 through the lighting hole 9 of the camera body 1, and the shooting range can be confirmed. At this time, 'the image of the convex mirror 20 reflected on the lens cover 6 and the image captured by the photographing unit 10 are both on the same optical axis 1 3, so that the optical axes 1 3 of both sides are made into the same, Therefore, the parallax does not occur / -14- 1231888, and the line of sight can be combined for accurate shooting. In particular, the convex mirror provided on the lens cover 6 is formed into a convex curved surface with a radius of curvature suitable for self-shooting, so as to reflect the image and shooting angle of the convex mirror 20, that is, the shooting section 1 2 The images of the photographed subject are formed to be slightly the same size. Therefore, more accurate shooting can be performed. In addition, the convex mirror 20 may be formed by removing the lens cover 6. If the lens cover 6 is mounted only during self-imaging, the appearance of a general electronic camera can be improved. [Second Embodiment] φ Next, a second embodiment in which the imaging device of the present invention is applied to an electronic camera will be described with reference to Figs. 5 and 6.

In this type of electronic camera, the beam splitter 25 is formed at the center of the circle of the lens cover 6-15-1231888 plate portion 15. Therefore, even if the circle plate portion 15 of the lens cover 6 corresponds to the photographing lens 11, For the configuration, since the side of the shooting lens 11 in the camera body 1 is dark, the image of the photographer himself reflected on the beam splitter 25 can be seen through the lighting hole 9 of the camera body 1. Therefore, in addition to obtaining the same excellent appearance and design as those in the first embodiment, when the photographer himself performs self-shooting, in order to project an image of himself on the dichroic mirror 25 of the lens cover 6 You can check the shooting range. Even in this case, both the image reflected on the beam splitter 25 of the lens cover 6 and the image captured by the shooting unit 10 are positioned on the same optical axis 13, thereby presenting a uniform shape. , No parallax will occur, but you can combine your sights for correct shooting. Especially in this case, because a certain degree of external light can be captured by the beam splitter 25, not only the focus adjustment (AF) and exposure adjustment (AE) can be formed, but also the photographer's own image The capturing section 12 is used as image data to capture, and the captured image data can be displayed on the display section 2 provided behind the camera body 1.

In this case, the circular plate portion 15 has a front surface formed as a flat surface, and the flat mirror 30 has a metal vapor-deposited film having a flat front structure that spans the circular plate portion 15. In this type of electronic camera, the plane mirror 30 is provided over the entire area of the front surface of the circular plate portion 15 of the lens cover 6. Therefore, in addition to having the same function and effect as the first embodiment, it is only necessary to The metal vapor-deposited film can be formed on the front surface of the circular plate portion 15 across the entire area. Therefore, the plane mirror 30 can be simply and easily provided on the lens cover 6. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a member more than that of the first embodiment. Even lower prices. φ In addition, in the third embodiment described above, in order to form the circular plate portion 15 of the lens cover 6 as a flat surface, the flat mirror 30 is provided on the circular plate portion 15. However, it is not limited to this, and The surface of the circular plate portion 15 can be formed into a gentle convex curved surface, or its surface can be formed into a convex mirror having a curved radius larger than the radius of curvature of the first embodiment and a gentle curved surface by metal evaporation. To form a convex curved surface, the surface of the circular plate portion 15 may be formed into a concave curved surface, and a concave mirror may be formed on the surface by metal evaporation. In addition, the invention is not limited to this, and the circular plate portion 15 may be integrally formed with the same beam splitter as the second embodiment. In this case, the lens cover 6 is formed of a transparent synthetic resin, and a translucent metal vapor-deposited film having a light-transmitting property may be formed on the circular plate portion of the lens cover 6. Even in this structure, the same effects as those of the second embodiment are obtained.

This type of electronic camera has a structure in which first and second lens caps 3 5 and 36 are attached to a lens barrel 50 in which a photographing lens 11 and a photographing unit 12 are assembled. The fourth embodiment has the same structure. That is, the first and second lens covers 35 and 36 are provided with the respective support shafts 39 and φ 43 of the respective arm portions 38 and 42 at the ends above the lens barrel 50. In this state, the 1. The second driving device (not shown) is configured to rotate around the support shafts 39 and 43 as a center. This type of electronic camera has the same functions and effects as those of the fourth embodiment. In particular, by mounting the photographing lens 11, the photographing section 12, and the first and second lens covers 3 5 and 36 to The lens barrel 50 can achieve the unitization of these components. Therefore, the positioning of the first and second lens covers 35 and 36 can be correctly performed for the shooting lens 11 and the shooting section 12, and at the same time, It can be repaired to improve the assembly workability, so as to obtain something that is also superior in terms of productivity. In addition, in the above-mentioned fourth and fifth embodiments, the case where the lens cover is divided into two of the first and second lens covers 35 and 36 is not limited to this, and the lens cover may be divided. Become more than three. In addition, in the above-mentioned fourth and fifth embodiments, although the first and second driving devices 40 and 44 are respectively provided on the first and second lens covers 35 and 36 and -20-1231888 is driven independently, However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the first and second lens covers 35 and 36 can be driven simultaneously by one driving device. If this is the case, a simple structure, a small number of components, and a low price can be obtained. Furthermore, in the above-mentioned fourth and fifth embodiments, the first and second convex mirrors 45 and 46 are respectively provided on each of the semi-circular portions 3 7, 4 1 of the first and second lens covers 35, 36. The case will be described, but it is not limited to this, and the first and second beam splitters may be provided on the semicircular portions 37 and 41 of the first and second lens covers 35 and 36, respectively. When the semicircular portions 3 7, 4 of the second lens cover φ 3 5, 3 6 are arranged at positions corresponding to the photographing lens 11 and closed, the first and second beam splitters are formed in a manner similar to the second embodiment. The example of the beam splitter 25 has the same structure. If so, in addition to the same effects as those of the fourth and fifth embodiments, the same effects as those of the second embodiment can be obtained. [Effects of Invention] As described above, if the present invention has a mirror function for reflecting an image of a subject on a lens cover for protecting a photographing lens, the present invention is excellent in appearance φ and design, and When the photographer is shooting himself, the shooting range can be confirmed in order to reflect the image of himself on the lens cover. At the same time, the optical axis of the image reflected on the lens cover and the image captured by the shooting section can be presented. It is consistent, so that parallax does not occur, and the eyes can be combined for accurate shooting. In this case, if the lens cover is configured to move outside the optical path and the optical path of the aforementioned shooting lens in response to the shutter operation, the state of the self image is reflected on the lens-21-1231888 cover, and The shutter operation can be performed, and the lens cover can be moved on and off the optical path of the photographing lens in response to the shutter operation. Therefore, in order to simplify the photographing operation, accurate photographing can be performed by this. In addition, if the mirror function is a convex mirror provided on the outer surface of the lens cover, the convex mirror provided on the lens cover is formed into a convex curved surface with a radius of curvature suitable for self-shooting, and the convex mirror can be reflected on the convex mirror. The image of the shadow_ is set to be slightly the same size as the image of the subject captured by the shooting section, so that it can be shot more accurately. In addition, if the mirror function is a spectroscope formed in the lens cover to a portion corresponding to at least φ corresponding to the shooting lens, even if the lens cover is arranged corresponding to the shooting lens, the shooting lens side is dark. Therefore, it can be found that the photographer's own image is reflected on the beam splitter, and at the same time, to the extent that external light can be captured through the beam splitter, the captured image can be displayed on the monitor. In addition, the lens cover is divided into a plurality of parts, in order to integrate the aforementioned shooting lens when it is closed and to divide it when it is opened, it can speed up the opening and closing speed of the lens cover of the shooting lens. Fast shooting, so the system is formed for continuous shooting. In addition, the lens cover can be opened and closed to be mounted on the lens barrel of the assembled shooting lens, and the shooting lens, the shooting unit, and the lens cover can be unitized by the lens barrel. The lens cover can be positioned correctly, and assembly workability can be improved. Furthermore, by using a convex mirror detachably provided on the outer surface of the lens cover, the appearance when not in use can be set to a better level. -22- 1231888 [Brief description of the drawings] Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the first embodiment in which the photographing device of the present invention is applied to an electronic camera, as viewed from the rear side.
