Abstract
A camera has a housing accommodating a shutter release element, and a detachable handgrip on the housing which is turnable about a pivot axis extending transverse to the optical axis. A trigger element is integrated in the handgrip and a coupling is provided which, on depressing of the trigger element, will operate the shutter release element irrespective of the position which the handgrip assumes relative to the camera housing on being turned about the aforementioned pivot axis.
