Abstract
A cradle for a digital camera. When a digital camera is set in a retainer of the cradle, side portions of a wall formed at the retainer are disposed to shield a charging terminal and a USB terminal formed at a lower portion of a side surface of a casing of the digital camera. Thus, a charging cord and a USB cord cannot be connected directly to the charging terminal and the USB terminal when the digital camera has been set in the digital camera cradle. That is, when the digital camera is set in the cradle, it is possible to prevent redundant connection of connecting cords to any ones of a plurality of connecting terminals formed in the digital camera that are of kinds the same as other connecting terminals of the digital camera, which others are connected to connecting terminals provided at the cradle.
