Abstract
A camera includes a flange back adjusting mechanism in which the operation of the flange back adjusting mechanism is not obstructed, and the flange back adjustment is easily performed. A flange back adjusting mechanism which moves and adjusts a CCD in the direction of the optical axis can be operated by an operation section which protrudes to the outside of a case portion through an operation window. The operation window is opened in a side wall face of a camera chassis separating rearward from a lens mount portion along the direction of the optical axis and on a peripheral wall of a case portion of the camera chassis.
