Abstract
The vibration proof adapter is arranged between a lens and a camera. Indicators for indicating an ON/OFF status of a vibration proof function are provided on both of the right and left sides of the vibration proof adapter, and the indicators can be checked by a cameraperson with looking at a view finder. Each indicator is retractably provided in a body housing, and a lamp is rotatably provided at the tip of an arm. The arm is made to stand up at the time of image pickup, and is used with turning the screen of the lamp toward the cameraperson. Even if the cameraperson does not move a look from the view finder, the cameraperson can check the lighting status of lamp. Moreover, a cavity for containing the indicator is formed on the periphery of the vibration proof adapter, and the indicator is retracted in the cavity at the time of retraction.
