PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To keep an image pickup pattern horizontal at all times by providing an integrated CCD holder lens section with a weight provided thereto to a desk top microphone stand type camera having a flexible arm. SOLUTION: A stopper shaft holder 6 and a CCD holder 9 are fixed by a CCD holder screw 11 to have a flange section of a stopper shaft 8 in between. After the shaft 8 is inserted to a round hole of the holder 6, a stop release lever 5 is screwed and fixed to the shaft 8 and a lens 13 is screwed and fixed to the holder 9. Weights A7, B12 are fixed to the holders 6, 9 respectively so that a CCD image pickup element fixed to the holder 9 is placed horizontally and normally. When the CCD holder lens starts turning with gravity and comes to a standstill, the video pattern is adjusted horizontally and the turning is stopped by stopping the operation of the lever 5 simultaneously and then the horizontal posture of the video pattern is maintained. |
