A housing of a finder unit is attached to a camera body and cam follower pins of movable lenses are engaged with grooves of a finder cam provided in the camera body. The housing is moved back and forth in this state along a guide bar attached to the camera body. Thereby, a position of a view frame of a view frame switch unit, which serves as an image forming part of the finder unit, is adjusted with respect to the movable lenses so that the focus of the finder unit is adjusted.
