PURPOSE:To easily enable flash photography, daylight synchronized flash photography, etc., by providing a flash lamp above a pentagonal prism and providing a means which puts a flash lamp storage means in an in-use state or projection state. CONSTITUTION:Guide pins 50a and 50b are normally fitted in guide holes 48a and 48b and a spring 40 rotates a leg lever 34a counterclockwise around support shafts 38a and 38b of rotation, so that a force for transition from the storage state to the projection state operates on a lamp support body 24. The lamp support body 24 is held in the storage state inside a panel 52 against the force of the spring 40 and a lock mechanism which releases the lamp support body 24 manually or automatically as necessary is provided. When a push button 62 is depressed, a lock piece 56 rotates counterclockwise around the shaft 54 of rotation to release the top end surface 56a of the lock piece 56 and the pin 60 of the leg lever 34a from frictional engagement, so that the lamp support body 24 projects from a storage chamber 26 with the force of the spring 40.
