ABSTRACT:
A buckle device for a water-proof camera is disclosed, including a buckle arm pivotally mounted at its one end to the camera housing, and a buckle body whose one end is pivotally mounted on the free end of the arm and whose opposite end has a bent-over lug from a pin on the back lid of the camera. The buckle arm has a spring-biased buckle lock member arranged to engage in a recess provided in the camera housing. By slidingly moving the buckle lock member against the bias spring, the buckle arm is released from the connection with the recess. In this releasing position, the buckle lock member then functions as a handle for taking the lug from engagement with the back lid of the camera housing. Therefore, the back lid is surely prevented from opening by accident.
