ABSTRACT:
A camera includes a lighttight body portion and a cover having an interior recess sized for receiving an end of said body portion. The cover is coupled to the body portion and is movable in opposing directions between an opened position and a closed position. A portion of the body or the cover includes stop surfaces for preventing the cover from opening beyond the opening position which are deformable or detachable to allow the cover to be released from the body portion of the camera. Alternately, the cover can be part of a two part releasable assembly which can be separated either destructively or non-destructively from the camera.
