ABSTRACT:
In a flash built-in camera, a movable lens barrel is movable between a collapsed position of being contained inside a camera body, and photographing positions in front of the collapsed position, and holds a taking lens. A flip-up flash emitting unit is movable between a contained position and a flashing position, and when in the flashing position, applies flash light to a photographic field. A motor drives the movable lens barrel and the flash emitting unit. One transmission mechanism connects the movable lens barrel and the flash emitting unit with the motor, and responds to motion of the motor in a predetermined direction, to move the movable lens barrel to a photographing position and to move the flash emitting unit to the flashing position. The transmission mechanism includes one ring-shaped gear disposed about the movable lens barrel.
