Abstract:
A camera in which unexposed film is previously loaded, comprising:a strobe circuit board; a strobe emitting portion including, a) a light emitting tube having electrode terminals on both ends thereof, b) a reflector for reflecting strobe light emitted by said light emitting tube toward a photographic object wherein said light emitting tube is placed at a predetermined position in relation to said reflector, and c) a transmission window for covering a front surface of said reflector and for transmitting said strobe light; a first connection receiving section for receiving one of said electrode terminals; and a second connection receiving section for receiving the other one of said electrode terminals, wherein said one of said electrode terminals is longer than the other one of said electrode terminals so that said light emitting tube is prevented from being assembled in other than a predetermined direction; and a length of said one of said electrode terminals is longer than a distance between the end of said light emitting tube on said one of said electrode terminals side and said first connection receiving section, and said distance between the end of said light emitting tube on said one of said electrode terminals side and said first connection receiving section is longer than a length of the other one of said electrode terminals.
