An aspect of the present invention provides a lens-interchangeable camera
which has operability equal to a right-handed user and a left-handed user
without necessity of any addition of extra members and without
sacrificing a design for a smaller size. Since a camera according to the
present invention does not need any extra members, a user-friendly camera
which eliminates any disadvantage for a use by left-handed persons at a
high level that any conventional cameras have not yet achieved can be
achieved. Also, since a camera body can be disposed on a left side as
needed even for a right-handed user and the right-handed user can operate
the camera body only with his/her left hand, this form is convenient when
the user picks up images while the user is operating another apparatus
with his/her right hand.
