PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a camera and its lens cap for achieving high durability and highly reliable photographic lens protection by realizing a spring structure where mechanical damage is hardly caused even in repeated elongation and contraction. SOLUTION: In this digital still camera 13, a lens cap 21 having restraining pawls 24a and 24b energized in one direction by a pair of leaf springs (24e1 and 24e2) and (24f1 and 24f2) formed nearly in a bellows state is attached through the pawls 24a and 24b. The most proximate parts curved in a U-shape of the pair of leaf springs (24e1 and 24e2) and (24f1 and 24f2) are coupled with each other by coupling parts 24e3 and 24f3. |
