A digital camera which includes: a photographic lens movable along an
optical axis thereof between a retracted position and a photographing
position in front of the retracted position; an image pick-up device on
which an object image is formed through the photographic lens, the image
pick-up device being guided to be movable between a first position where
the image pick-up device is positioned in a photographic optical path of
the photographic lens behind the photographic lens and a second position
where the image pick-up device is positioned out of the photographic
optical path; and a mechanism for moving the image pick-up device between
the first position and the second position, wherein the moving mechanism
moves the image pick-up device to the first position when the
photographic lens is moved from the retracted position to the
photographing position, and wherein the moving mechanism moves the image
pick-up device to the second position when the photographic lens is moved
from the photographing position to the retracted position
