ABSTRACT:
A camera built-in flash device is movable between a retracted rest position where the light emitting portion of the device is within the contour of the camera body, and an extended operative position where the flash emitting portion projects beyond the camera contour a distance from the optical axis of the camera objective sufficient to avoid the red-eye phenomenon. A mechanism for transferring the flash device from the rest to the operative position includes a first member movable a predetermined distance relative to the camera body, a second member movable a predetermined distance relative to the first member and means for interconnecting these two members to move the flash device a distance equal to the sum of distances of movement of the members. The flash device is releasably retained at the rest and operative positions.
