A lens barrel includes a lens mount, a fixed frame, and a movable frame. The lens mount includes an attachment part to which the fixed frame is attached, and a recessed part which is adjacent to the attachment part and is recessed toward the camera body, and into which an end part of the movable frame enters at least when the movable frame is positioned closest to the lens mount. Part of the attachment part close to the camera body has a tapered surface inclined relative to the optical axis. A counterbore in which a screw for attaching the fixed frame to the attachment part is disposed is formed at the tapered surface. Due to the tapered surface, part of the lens mount where the attachment part is formed has a thickness greater than that of another part of the lens mount where the recessed part is formed.
1. A lens barrel configured to be attached to a camera body, comprising:
a lens mount configured to contact the camera body to determine a position of the lens barrel relative to the camera body;
a fixed frame attached to the lens mount; and
a movable frame housed in the fixed frame so as to be movable in an optical axis direction,
wherein the lens mount includes
an attachment part to which the fixed frame is attached, and
a recessed part which is adjacent to the attachment part in a radial direction about an optical axis and is recessed toward the camera body as compared to the attachment part, and into which an end part of the movable frame enters at least when the movable frame is positioned closest to the lens mount,
part of the attachment part close to the camera body has a tapered surface inclined relative to the optical axis,
a counterbore in which a screw for attaching the fixed frame to the attachment part is disposed is formed at the tapered surface, and
due to the tapered surface, part of the lens mount where the attachment part is formed has a thickness greater than that of another part of the lens mount where the recessed part is formed.
2. The lens barrel of claim 1 , wherein
part of the another part excluding part facing the end part of the movable frame when the movable frame is positioned closest to the lens mount is formed with a protrusion projecting relative to the part facing the end part of the movable frame.
3. The lens barrel of claim 2 , wherein
the protrusion is positioned inside the part facing the end part of the movable frame in the radial direction.
