An image-capture apparatus includes: an outer casing inside of which
predetermined sections are arranged; an imaging device arranged inside of
the outer casing; and a circuit board arranged inside of the outer
casing, on which electronic components are mounted, the electronic
components being heat generating elements. A heat-releasing air duct is
formed on an outer surface side of the outer casing, at least an opening
of the duct being formed at one surface of the outer casing and not
communicating with an inside of the outer casing. Part of the outer
casing is provided as a duct forming part that forms the heat-releasing
air duct. Heat generated by the electronic components mounted on the
circuit board is conducted to the duct forming part to be released
outside of the outer casing from the heat-releasing air duct.
