Patent ID: 6842585

Claim:
A camera comprising: a sensor unit which measures a distance to a subject; the sensor unit comprising: a photoelectric conversion element which is sensitive to an ambient temperature, the photoelectric conversion element having first and second sides; a plurality of first connection terminals which extend from one side of the photoelectric conversion element; a plurality of second connection terminals which extend from the other side of the photoelectric conversion element; a housing with which the photoelectric conversion element is covered and in which a first through hole is formed in a predetermined position; and an electric substrate having a plurality of first connection lands to which the plurality of first connection terminals are operatively coupled respectively, and a plurality of second connection lands to which the plurality of second connection terminals are operatively coupled respectively, and in which a second through hole is formed between the plurality of first connection lands and the plurality of second connection lands; patterns for plating disposed on a region between the plurality of first connection lands and the plurality of second connection lands on the electric substrate and which brings at least one part of the plurality of first connection lands or the plurality of second connection lands into conduction for carrying out a plating treatment, wherein the second through hole is formed on the patterns for plating after the plating treatment, and conduction for the plating treatment is cut off, wherein the second through hole is formed in the electric substrate and is disposed opposite the first through hole formed in the housing in a state in which the electric substrate is electrically connected to the photoelectric conversion element, and serves as a vent hole.
