Image pickup device
An image pickup device includes a body case, a grip belt, and a Wi-Fi module stored in the body case. A communication module has a substrate, a processing circuit, and an antenna. The grip belt extends from a first attaching portion provided on a right side surface of the body case to a second attaching portion provided on a side opposite to an opening portion side of a lens barrel of the body case. The communication module is arranged closer to the opening portion of the lens barrel than a reference surface substantially orthogonal to an optical axis and passing through the first attaching portion or in the vicinity of the reference surface.
1. An image pickup device comprising:
a communication module having a substrate, an antenna provided on the substrate, and a processing circuit provided on the substrate and processing a signal transmitted/received by the antenna;
a housing configured to accommodate a lens unit having a lens barrel and the communication module; and
a grip belt configured to extend from a first attaching portion provided on a first side surface of the housing to a second attaching portion provided on a side opposite to an opening portion side of the lens barrel of the housing,
wherein the communication module is arranged closer to the opening portion of the lens barrel than a reference surface substantially orthogonal to an optical axis of the lens barrel and passing through the first attaching portion or in the vicinity of the reference surface; wherein
a stepped portion for changing a width between the first side surface and the second side surface of the housing is provided on the first side surface;
the housing has a wide portion provided on the opening portion side of the lens barrel of the stepped portion, and a narrow portion provided on a side opposite to the opening portion side of the lens barrel of the stepped portion; and
the communication module is arranged in the wide portion.
2. The image pickup device according to claim 1 , wherein
the antenna is arranged closer to the opening portion of the lens barrel than the processing circuit; and
the processing circuit is arranged closer to the opening portion of the lens barrel than the reference surface or in the vicinity of the reference surface.
3. The image pickup device according to claim 1 , further comprising a display portion capable of being opened and closed, provided on a second side surface facing the first side surface of the housing,
wherein the communication module is arranged in a portion other than a space between the second side surface and the lens unit.
4. The image pickup device according to claim 1 , wherein the antenna is provided on a side of the lens barrel.
5. The image pickup device according to claim 1 , further comprising an operation portion provided on the side opposite to the opening portion side of the lens barrel of the housing.
