Patent ID: 8876297

Claim:
A camera, comprising: an image-capturing unit that captures an image of a subject; a projection unit that includes a light source that generates heat and projects an optical image with light from the light source; a shift unit that shifts the projection unit between a usage position and a housed position; and a heat conduction member that is configured to be a flexible and deformable member so as to connect the projection unit and a chassis of a camera body when the projection unit is both in the usage position and in the housed position, to conduct the heat, due to the light source from the projection unit, to the chassis of the camera body in both the usage position and the housed position between which the projection unit is shifted, and to dissipate the heat to the exterior of the chassis of the camera body from the heat conduction member itself while conducting the heat to the chassis of the camera body in the usage position, wherein: the heat conduction member is deformed to keep connecting the projection unit and the chassis of the camera body and keep conducting the heat to the chassis of the camera body, when the shift unit shifts the projection unit between the usage position and the housed position; and the projection unit projects from the chassis of the camera body in the usage position.
