Data imprinting device for a camera having changeable image size

摘要

To provide a data imprinting device for a camera which has a simple construction and does not make the main body of the camera large in size, a data imprinting device for a camera includes: an LED for optically generating data to be imprinted on a film surface; a prism for allowing data light generated by the LED to form an image on the film surface; a holder for holding the LED and the prism and disposed in such a manner as to be movable in a direction perpendicular to an optical axis for photographing of the camera; and data-imprinting-position changing means for moving the holder in interlocked relation with a changeover of a photographing image size on the film surface, and for changing a position of imprinting data on the film surface.
