Abstract:
Provided is an electronic device in which a finder part pulled out from a device body can be rotated and in which the finder part can be locked in a rotated position by using a built-in support mechanism. A camera comprises: a camera body (1); a finder part (12) having a lens group (36a); and a support mechanism (50) that is provided inside the camera body (1), supports the finder part (12) so as to be capable of transitioning between a plurality of states, and has a tilt axis TA serving as the rotational center of the finder part (12). The tilt axis TA is positioned outside the camera body (1) when the finder part (12) is in a pulled-out state, a tilt-lock-released state, and a tilt-locked state, and the tilt axis TA moves into the camera body (1) as the finder part (12) transitions to a stored state.
