Abstract
A range finding device for a camera comprises a range finding module including at least a range finding element, a first support member for supporting the range finding module, a second support member for rotatably supporting the first support member, a unit base for rotatably supporting the second support member, a first adjusting member, such as a screw, for rotatably adjusting the first support member provided in the second support member, and a second adjusting member, such as a screw, for rotatably adjusting the second support member. The first adjusting member is set relative to the unit base in a non-contacting fashion and the rotation adjustment by the first adjusting member is independent of, and exerts no influence over, the adjustment by the second adjustment member.
