Abstract
In a photographic camera of the type having a box-like camera housing and a cover door having a main cover portion which is hinged at one end to the camera housing and a lens support portion on the other end of the main cover portion, a two-part light-tight bellows is provided which couples the cover door with the camera housing in a manner permitting movement of the cover door between a closed position wherein the main cover portion is substantially parallel to one wall of the camera housing and an open position wherein the main cover portion is extended outwardly from the housing at an oblique angle and the lens support portion is substantially parallel to the one wall of the camera housing. When the door is closed, the two-part bellows is collapsed with one part folded flat against the main cover portion of the door and the other part folded flat against the lens support portion of the cover door.
