Exchangeable lens

摘要

An exchangeable lens includes: a camera lens mount unit having a mount center point, to which a camera body, with twelve body connector terminals disposed near a camera body mount unit at the camera body, is attached; a holding portion where twelve lens connector terminals, each connected to one of the twelve body connector terminals and each including a contact area to come into contact with one of the body connector terminals, are disposed; an optical system that includes a drive target member which can be driven; and a drive unit that drives the drive target member. A distance setting apart a center of at least one lens connector terminal among the twelve lens connector terminals from the mount center point is different from a distance setting apart a center of at least one other lens connector terminal from the mount center point.

1. An exchangeable lens, comprising:
a camera lens mount unit having a mount center point, to which a camera body, with twelve body connector terminals disposed near a camera body mount unit at the camera body, is attached; a holding portion where twelve lens connector terminals, each connected to one of the twelve body connector terminals and each including a contact area to come into contact with one of the body connector terminals, are disposed; an optical system that includes a drive target member which can be driven; and a drive unit that drives the drive target member, wherein: the twelve lens connector terminals are:
a first lens connector terminal through which a drive voltage to be used to engage the drive unit in operation is provided from the camera body;a second lens connector terminal that functions as a ground terminal corresponding to the drive voltage;a third lens connector terminal through which a first clock signal from the camera body is input;a fourth lens connector terminal through which a first data signal from the camera body is input in synchronization with the first clock signal;a fifth lens connector terminal through which a second data signal is output to the camera body in synchronization with the first clock signal;a sixth lens connector terminal through which a second clock signal from the camera body is input;a seventh lens connector terminal through which a third data signal is output to the camera body in synchronization with the second clock signal;an eighth lens connector terminal through which a first asynchronous signal that is not synchronous with the first clock signal or the second clock signal is output to the camera body;a ninth lens connector terminal through which a second asynchronous signal that is not synchronous with the first clock signal or the second clock signal is input from the camera body;a tenth lens connector terminal through which a third asynchronous signal that is not synchronous with the first clock signal or the second clock signal is output to the camera body;an eleventh lens connector terminal through which an operating voltage, enabling reception of the first data signal from the camera body through the fourth lens connector terminal and transmission of the second data signal to the camera body through the fifth lens connector terminal based upon the first asynchronous signal output through the eighth lens connector terminal and the first clock signal input through the third lens connector terminal and also enabling transmission of the third data signal to the camera body through the seventh lens connector terminal based upon the second asynchronous signal input through the ninth lens connector terminal, the third asynchronous signal output through the tenth lens connector terminal and the second clock signal input through the sixth lens connector terminal, is provided from the camera body; anda twelfth lens connector terminal that functions as a ground terminal corresponding to the operating voltage; an interior angle formed by the contact area of the first lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point is largest among interior angles, each formed by contact areas of any two lens connector terminals among the twelve lens connector terminals at the mount center point; an interior angle formed by the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal and the contact area of the twelfth lens connector terminal at the mount center point is smaller than an interior angle formed by the contact area of any lens connector terminal among the first lens connector terminal through the tenth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point; an interior angle formed by the contact area of the third lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point is smaller than an interior angle formed by the contact area of any lens connector terminal among the first lens connector terminal, the second lens connector terminal and the fourth lens connector terminal through the tenth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point; an interior angle formed by the contact area of the fourth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point is smaller than an interior angle fowled by the contact area of any lens connector terminal among the first lens connector terminal, the second lens connector terminal and the fifth lens connector terminal through the tenth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point; an interior angle formed by the contact area of the fifth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point is smaller than an interior angle formed by the contact area of any lens connector terminal among the first lens connector terminal, the second lens connector terminal and the sixth lens connector terminal through the tenth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point; an interior angle formed by the contact area of the eighth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point is smaller than an interior angle formed by the contact area of any lens connector terminal among the first lens connector terminal, the second lens connector terminal, the sixth lens connector terminal, the seventh lens connector terminal, the ninth lens connector terminal and the tenth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point; an interior angle formed by the contact area of the ninth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point is smaller than an interior angle formed by the contact area of any lens connector terminal among the first lens connector terminal, the second lens connector terminal, the sixth lens connector terminal, the seventh lens connector terminal and the tenth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point; an interior angle formed by the contact area of the tenth lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point is smaller than an interior angle formed by the contact area of any lens connector terminal among the first lens connector terminal, the second lens connector terminal, the sixth lens connector terminal and the seventh lens connector terminal and the contact area of the eleventh lens connector terminal at the mount center point;
