PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a press button capable of ensuring a long detecting time for the completion of depression after half-depressed without increasing power consumption, and to provide a photographing apparatus having the press button. SOLUTION: A movable contact piece 10-118, which is long sideways, is disposed across and in contact with the leading end of a pressing shaft part 10-112 extending downward from the depression receiving part 10-111 of the press button 10-11. Before the press button 10-11 is depressed, the contact movable piece 10-118 is kept in contact with a conductive part 10-117. The instant the press button 10-11 is slightly depressed, the movable contact piece is allowed to be released from the contact state. The conventional feeling of click is imparted in two steps by first and second elastic bodies. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
