ABSTRACT:
A camera includes a movable lens barrel, a flip-up flash emitting unit, a biasing spring to retract the flash emitting unit, and a slidable cover for a front of the movable lens barrel. A transmission gear transmits motion from a motor toward the movable lens barrel. A flash shifting transmission ring moves the flash emitting unit between a contained position and a flashing position in response to the motion transmitted by the transmission gear. A connection changer is set in a first set position when the slidable cover is in a closed position, and set in a second set position when the slidable cover is in an open position, for unlinking the transmission ring from the transmission gear when in the first set position, and for linking the transmission ring with the transmission gear when in the second set position.
