ABSTRACT:
To set a distance between a lens mounting surface of a lens mount and a image pickup element for a back-focus of a interchangeable lens, the video camera comprises two guide pins fixed inside a front panel of a camera body parallel to an optical axis of a lens, said front panel which the lens mount is fixed in, a carrier supported by the two guide pins to move parallel to the optical axis, said carrier to which the image pickup element is fixed, a spring provided between the carrier and the front panel of the camera body to bias the carrier in such a direction that the carrier separates from the lens mount, a screw shaft rotatably assembled on the camera body by a holder to move parallel to the optical axis of the lens, said screw shaft having one end connected with the carrier and the other end on which an adjusting ring is screwed, and an opening formed in the camera body.
When the ring is rotated by a finger or a tool being inserted in the camera body through the opening, the screw shaft moves back and forth, so that the carrier moves parallel to the optical axis of the lens along the guide pins. As a result, a change occurs in The distance between a lens mounting surface of the lens mount and the image pickup element.
