Abstract
The photographic camera has a watertight housing (11, 12) in which a film transport and guide mechanism, a taking lens (15), a viewfinder (16), as well as a flash unit are accommodated. The novel and inventive step consists in that an integral support member (14) is provided which is connected with housing (11, 12) in a watertight manner and into which the taking lens (15), the viewfinder lens (16) as well as the diffusion screen (17) of the flash unit are all integrated.
