ABSTRACT:
A camera assembly has a main member having a mount defining an optical axis. A rocker supported by the mount, is pivotable between first and second positions. First and second taking lenses are movable by the rocker between a first configuration, in which the optical axis intersects the first lens and a second configuration, in which the optical axis intersects the second lens. A linkage is switchable between first and second conformations to pivot the rocker. The linkage includes an inner link having an inner end rotatably joined to the rocker. The inner end and rocker have overlapping projections holding them in alignment relative to a plane perpendicular to the optical axis.
