Abstract
A camera is less likely to have lower light-shielding performance. The camera includes a frame accommodated in a housing having a front surface with an opening, a lens barrel accommodating a lens, a rear light shield that blocks light outside the lens barrel, and a pressure plate pressing the rear light shield against the frame and securing the rear light shield to the frame. A base in a stationary cylinder has an inner surface being rectangular, an arc surface extending outward in an arc along a cylindrical wall, and a contact surface in contact with a front surface of the pressure plate. The pressure plate includes a pressing portion being a rectangular frame extending along the inner surface of the base in the stationary cylinder and in contact with a rear connector in the rear light shield, and an extension extending outward from the pressing portion and facing the arc surface of the base in the stationary cylinder.
