Abstract
A hand-portable electronic devicecomprising: a first body part; a second body partrotatably connected to the first body part, the second body part comprising a camera assemblyhaving an imaging axisand an imaging window; and a slidable cover, the first and second body parts being rotatable with respect to each other about a rotation axis, the camera assembly being configured such that the imaging axis is orthogonal to the rotation axis, the slidable cover being adapted to slide between: i) a first position in which the first and second body parts are unlocked and are thereby able to rotate relative to one another; and ii) a second position in which the first and second body parts are locked by engagement of the slidable cover therebetween, relative rotation of the first and second body parts being thereby prevented, and in which the slidable cover covers the imaging window.
