Abstract: The present invention provides the following camera. A first camera-side contact pin is a pin corresponding to detection of a signal change caused by coupling of a camera accessory. A second camera-side contact pin is a pin corresponding to supply of power for communication with the coupled camera accessory. A third camera-side contact pin is a pin corresponding to supply of a driving force to an actuator of the camera accessory. The first, second, and third camera-side contact pins are disposed in such a manner that, when a camera-side mount shifts from a first state to a second state, the third camera-side contact pin contacts first and second accessory-side contact surfaces, the second camera-side contact pin contacts the first accessory-side contact surface, and the first camera-side contact pin does not contact the second and third accessory-side contact surfaces.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, a linear-scan ultrasonic inspection apparatus comprises: an ultrasonic array probe having ultrasonic elements aligned in a first direction; a delay-time calculator configured to calculate, referring to the surface shape of the test object, values of delay time of at least one of transmitting and receiving ultrasonic wave; an overlapping-region adjustor configured to set conditions for generating an image of an overlapping region; and an integrated-image generator configured to generate first image data of a region including the overlapping region. The overlapping-region adjustor is configured to set the conditions of the surface shape to be referred to the delay-time calculator in calculating the values of the delay time at either the first-probe setting position or the second-probe setting position as both of a first acquired shape obtained at the first-probe setting position and a second acquired shape obtained at the second-probe setting position.
