ABSTRACT:
A camera having an anti-vibration sensor positioned so as to reduce the effect of electrically generated noise on the anti-vibration sensor. The camera includes a camera body having first, second and third portions, the second portion for coupling a photographic lens barrel to the camera body and being between the first and third portions. An anti-vibration sensor is positioned on the first portion of the camera body. An electrical noise generating source is positioned on the third portion of the camera body. In this manner, the photographic lens barrel acts as a shielding member when the photographic lens barrel is coupled to the second portion of the camera body. The present invention also describes a camera which includes a camera body, a first anti-vibration sensor which is coupled to the camera body and detects the amount of vibration of the camera in a first direction, and a second anti-vibration sensor which is coupled to the camera body and detects the amount of vibration of the camera in a second direction, the second direction being different from the first direction. The camera includes a strobe and a strobe capacitor which delivers electric charge to the strobe. Wiring electrically connects the strobe to the strobe capacitor and generates electric noise when current is passing through the wiring, the effect of the electric noise being greater in the second direction then in the first direction and the distance from the second anti-vibration sensor to the wiring being longer than the distance from the first anti-vibration sensor to the wiring.
