PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely supply oxygen necessary for a fuel cell to generate power in the fuel cell. SOLUTION: A tripod shoe 15 for attaching a tripod 2 is arranged near the right end and an air hole 45 through which space inside a cell chamber 44 for storing the fuel cell 43 communicates with the outside of the casing of the camera 1 is arranged near the left end, respectively, on the base 1-5 of the housing of the camera 1. Thus, even when the tripod 2 is connected to the camera 1, the air hole 45 is prevented from being covered with the universal head 21 of the tripod 2, and oxygen (air) is always supplied to the fuel cell 43 stored in the cell chamber 44, whereby the fuel cell 43 keeps the sufficient quantity of generated power. The invention can be applied to the camera. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
