Abstract

A camera having an electronic flash equipment includes a body case having a generally rectangular shape in a front elevational view. A photographing lens is provided near the center of a front surface of the body case. A strobe mounting arm is pivoted, at a base end thereof, to an upper portion of the body case, to be rotatable between inoperative and operative positions. When the strobe mounting arm is in the inoperative position the strobe mounting arm extends along and on the body case. When the strobe mounting arm is in the operative position, a front end portion of the strobe mounting arm projects outward from a lateral edge of the body case adjacent to the pivotal connection of the body case to the strobe mounting arm. The strobe mounting arm is provided on the front end portion with a strobe light emitter which faces toward a subject to be photographed when the strobe mounting arm is in the operative position.
