Abstract:
1. A movable mirror shock-absorbing mechanism of a camera, comprising: a movable mirror which is supported to be rotatable between a viewfinder light-guiding position, in which said movable mirror is positioned in a photographing optical path to reflect incident light emanated from an object toward a viewfinder optical system of said camera, and a retracted position, in which said movable mirror is retracted from said photographing optical path to allow the object-emanated light to travel toward a photographic light-receiving medium; a pressing portion which moves with the rotation of said movable mirror; a first shock-absorbing member which is pressed and moved by said pressing portion to absorb shock of said movable mirror when said movable mirror rotates from said retracted position to said viewfinder light-guiding position; and a second shock-absorbing member which is pressed and moved by said pressing portion to absorb shock of said movable mirror when said movable mirror rotates from said viewfinder light-guiding position to said retracted position, wherein said first shock-absorbing member and said second shock-absorbing member are mutually identical in specifications.
