ABSTRACT:
A carefully designed arrangement of an electrical board and an FPC board connected by electrical connectors in a camera. The reliability of electrical connections is improved, and of a higher quality. An FPC board or the like, is positioned along top side wall surfaces of a prism inside a main camera body. An electrical board, such as a rigid board or the like, is positioned along a flat surface on the main camera body that extends in an approximately horizontal direction adjacent to the side wall surface. A two-surface mount-style mounting board is positioned between the top side wall surface and the flat surface in an approximately vertical direction. A horizontal electrical connector is positioned to receive the FPC board mounted on the surface of the side wall surface side of the mounting board. A vertical electrical connector is provided to receive the electrical board surface of the flat surface side of the mounting board. The horizontal and vertical connectors are arranged in symmetrical positions on either board surface of the mounting board.
