Abstract
An image pickup apparatus includes a rotary ring that has a plurality of groove portions formed in an inner periphery in a rotation direction, a holding member that holds the rotary ring, a click member that generates a click feel by repeating an abutting state in which the rotary ring abuts on the groove portion and a non-abutting state in which the rotary ring does not abut on the groove portion when the rotary ring is rotated, and an urging member that urges the click member from an inside of the rotary ring toward an outside of the rotary ring. The click member which protrudes from a cutout portion obtained by cutting out a portion of the holding member abuts on the groove portion from the inside of the rotation ring toward the outside of the rotation ring.
