Abstract: The present utility model relates to a transverse tube and a photographic equipment support. The purpose of the utility model is to provide a transverse tube that can be used with a common photographic equipment to allow a centre shaft transverse, and provide a photographic equipment containing the transverse tube.

Abstract: The present invention is an on-camera flashlight, comprising a lower light holder and a top light holder freely rotatably connected to the lower light holder. A flashlight light source is mounted on the top of the top light holder. The light emitting diode and the flashlight light source are mounted on the on-camera flashlight, combined for ease of use. Two functions-in-one lighting device saves space, avoids overloading the camera, and makes it portable. Because the two light sources are set in combination, the cooperation and sequence of the two light sources are easier to control. As the light emitting diode is mounted on the top light holder which may freely rotate with respect to the lower light holder, the light emitting diode may also freely rotate. It is also convenient to adjust the light direction. Above features all remarkably facilitate operation and versatility of the on-camera flashlight.

Abstract: A general-purpose battery compartment, comprising a compartment body that can receive either lithium batteries or AA batteries therein and separate the AA batteries received therein to prevent contact therebetween; wherein spring leafs used to connect with the lithium batteries or the AA batteries are provided within the compartment body, and contact points of anode and cathode of the lithium batteries are respectively connected to the two spring leafs that are connected to output terminals of anode and cathode of the battery compartment.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a hot shoe connector for camera functional accessories. On the camera functional accessory body exposed in the middle part of the hot shoe connector, there is fixedly provided with a set of at least two groups of electrical contacts which may match with at least two types of camera hot shoes respectively. In the electrical contact set, there is provided with a multi-functional electrical contact, with its first part corresponding to contact of camera shot shoe of a first type and its second part corresponding to contact of camera hot shoe of a second type which transmits the same type of data. The electrical contact set is connected to an auto detection control unit. The multi-functional contact also includes a second shared trigger with its first part corresponding to a first clock contact of camera hot shoe of the first type and its second part corresponding to a second clock contact of camera hot shoe of the second type.
