Image pickup apparatus
An image pickup apparatus includes an image sensor, an optical filter, a holding member configured to hold the optical filter, a driving unit configured to move the holding member, a grip portion configured to be gripped by a user, and a light blocking member configured to control blocking or opening of an image pickup range. The driving unit moves the optical filter between (i) a first position at which the optical filter is inserted into the image pickup range and (ii) a second position at which the optical filter is retracted from the image pickup range in a direction from the first position toward the grip portion. The optical filter is located on a side closer to the image sensor than the light blocking member.
1. An image pickup apparatus comprising:
an image sensor;
an optical filter;
a holding member configured to hold the optical filter;
a driving unit configured to move the holding member;
a grip portion configured to be gripped by a user; and
a light blocking member configured to control blocking or opening of an image pickup range,
wherein the driving unit rotationally moves the optical filter between (i) a first position at which the optical filter is inserted into the image pickup range and (ii) a second position at which the optical filter is retracted from the image pickup range in a direction from the first position toward the grip portion, and
wherein the optical filter is located on a side closer to the image sensor than the light blocking member.
2. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein in a state where the optical filter is at the first position, the optical filter is located between the image sensor and the light blocking member.
3. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the optical filter moves to the second position by rotating 90 degrees from the first position.
4. An image pickup apparatus comprising:
an image sensor;
an optical filter;
a holding member configured to hold the optical filter;
a driving unit configured to move the holding member;
a grip portion configured to be gripped by a user; and
a light blocking member configured to control blocking or opening of an image pickup range,
wherein the driving unit moves the optical filter between (i) a first position at which the optical filter is inserted into the image pickup range and (ii) a second position at which the optical filter is retracted from the image pickup range in a direction from the first position toward the grip portion, and
wherein the optical filter is located on a side closer to the image sensor than the light blocking member, and
wherein the second position is a position between the image pickup range and a battery that can be inserted into and ejected from the image pickup apparatus.
5. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the optical filter retracts from the first position to the second position parallelly to a plane orthogonal to an optical axis of an image pickup optical system.
6. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the optical filter rotationally moves about a shaft located on a side to which a bottom surface of the image pickup apparatus is closer than the optical axis is.
7. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the shaft is located on a side to which the bottom surface is closer than the image pickup range is.
8. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein in a view from a rear surface side of the image pickup apparatus, the shaft is provided between the optical axis and a short side closer to the grip portion of two short sides defining the image pickup range.
9. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the driving unit is located on a side to which a bottom surface of the image pickup apparatus is closer than the optical axis is.
10. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a control board,
wherein the second position is located between the grip portion and the control board.
11. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 10 , further comprising a memory medium insertion portion into and from which a recording medium can be inserted and ejected,
wherein the second position is located between the grip portion and the memory medium insertion portion.
12. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein a moving direction of the optical filter is the same as an insertion/ejection direction of the recording medium.
13. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 10 , the moving direction of the optical filter is the same as an insertion/ejection direction of a battery that can be inserted into and ejected from the image pickup apparatus.
14. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the light blocking member is a focal plane shutter.
15. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a mount portion to which a lens apparatus is detachably attachable,
wherein the light blocking member is located on a side to which the mount portion is closer than the optical filter is.
16. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 15 , wherein the image pickup range is defined by an opening provided inside the mount portion.
17. The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the optical filter is an ND filter, a PL filter, or a soft filter.
