ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a box camera which comprises a rectangular body which is open at two opposite sides to define a housing which is formed of a completely dimensionally stable fiber reinforced thermosetting resin. A lens plate assembly including a lens mounting plate and lens mounting plate support frame is slidably carried by the housing. The lens mounting plate is supported about its periphery by the support frame and the camera lens and shutter assembly is carried by the lens plate thus providing a highly stable lens mount. The housing adjacent the opposite one side is adapted for removably receiving a back member which closes the opposite side of the housing. The back member comprises a film plate which carries film sheets for exposure or which may carry means for mounting a film cassette and may also comprise a viewing device by which one may view the images received by the camera for composing and framing pictures. Light seal means are provided about the back member for providing a light seal between the back member and the interior of the housing.
