ABSTRACT:
A camera with a lens barrier is provided with a slide member, which moves together with the lens barrier over a certain range of motion. A locking portion for keeping a strobe button locked and a stopper for limiting the push-down movement amount of the strobe button are integrated in the slide member. When the lens barrier is positioned at a position other than an opening position, the locking portion prevents the strobe button from being pushed down. When the lens barrier is positioned at the opening position, the locking portion moves away from the strobe button so that the strobe button can be pushed down, and the stopper limits the push-down movement amount of the strobe button. Thus, the locking portion for keeping the strobe button locked and the stopper for limiting the push-down movement amount of the strobe button are integrated so that the number of parts can be decreased to simplify the structure and lower the production cost.
