VIDEO CAMERA

摘要

A video camera includes an abutment piece which is perpendicularly placed on the anterior side of the bottom of a stand portion and abuts on an attachment body to which the video camera is to be attached, a lever portion which is rotatably attached on the posterior side of the bottom of the stand portion, and bias means for biasing the lever potion toward the bottom of the stand portion. The lever portion includes an abutment portion formed such that it abuts on the abutment body. The lever portion holds the attachment body between the abutment portion and the abutment piece when it is used, and is housed in the stand portion such that it is pressurized to abut on the stand portion when it is not used. This structure enables the video camera to easily be attached to and detached from various attachment bodies such as flat display that are different from each other in thickness. When the video camera is detached from the body, the lever portion is compactly housed and accordingly the video camera can be placed directly on a flat surface for use.
