Abstract

An imaging apparatus includes an accessory shoe that includes an engagement member configured to be engaged with and hold an accessory unit that slides in an attachment direction relative to the accessory shoe, and an imaging apparatus side connector electrically connected to an accessory side connector of the accessory unit. The engagement member includes first and second engagement members provided apart from each other via a space in which the accessory unit slides, and a third engagement member that is provided on a front side of the first and second engagement members in the attachment direction, projects in a direction opposite to the attachment direction, and covers the imaging apparatus side connector. The third engagement member is engaged with the accessory side connector that is inserted into an engagement space formed between the third engagement member and the imaging apparatus side connector.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image pickup device having an accessory shoe to which accessory units such as a lamp and a microphone can be mounted. Background technique [0002] An imaging apparatus such as a video camera generally has an accessory shoe to which accessory units such as a lamp for illuminating a subject and a microphone for recording sound can be mounted. See Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-315989, No. 2006-79053 and No. 2005-236532. [0003] Figure 13 A conventional, generic accessory receptacle is shown. The accessory receptacle has an engagement plate 1300 that engages with and holds an accessory unit. The joint plate 1300 includes a mount base surface 1301 and a pair of joint members (hereinafter referred to as “camera-side joint members”) 1302 located on both sides of the mount base face 1301 . A contact group for power supply and communication (hereinafter referred to as “camera-side contact group”) 1305 i...
