Focal-plane shutter device

摘要

The present invention aims at improving the durability of a very high-speed shutter exceeding 1/8000 sec and further attaining a very high shutter speed even with sectors composed of a material exhibiting a low rigidity. For this purpose, a focal plane shutter device comprises: first and second blinds each constructed of a plurality of sectors; and a light shielding plate having an opening and an intermediate plate disposed between the first blind and the second blind. The first and second blinds are run in the facial direction of the light shielding plate so as to cover and expose the opening. The light shielding plate and the intermediate plate are bonded, or a shock absorbing member is interposed between these two plates.
