Abstract: An image sensor converts an optical image formed by an imaging optical system to video signals. A heat dissipation section discharges heat generated in an image sensor to the outside. The imaging optical system, the image sensor, the heat dissipation section, and a battery chamber are arranged on an extension line of an axis of the system in the mentioned order. The battery chamber has an upper surface tilted forward in a direction in which the image sensor is disposed with respect to the axis by a predetermined angle. A projected shadow of a portion, close to the heat dissipation section, of an upper end portion of the battery chamber, which is projected from an upper surface side of the image capturing apparatus, overlaps the heat dissipation section.

Abstract: An image capturing apparatus having a forced air cooling function and capable of having an accessory attached thereto includes an image capturing apparatus body. A lens mount is provided on the apparatus body and can have a shooting lens removably attached thereto. An attachment portion is provided on the apparatus body and can have the accessory removably attached thereto. A built-in microphone is arranged on a side of a surface of the apparatus body, different from any of a surface where an air outlet port for discharging air used for forced cooling is arranged, a surface where the lens mount is arranged, and a surface where the attachment portion is arranged. The built-in microphone is arranged at a location closer to a top surface of the image capturing apparatus body than a bottom surface thereof.

Abstract: A main body of an image pickup apparatus which enables a user to easily interchange mount apparatuses, and at this time, adjust and finely adjust the flange back. At least one flange back adjustment member is removably held between the mount apparatus and an image pickup device holding member of the main body. In a state in which the mount apparatus is attached to the main body with at least one flange back adjustment member, on a projection surface in a case of viewing the main body from the front side in a direction of an optical axis, fixing portions that fix the mount apparatus to the main body, the at least one flange back adjustment member, and a connector of the main body or the mount apparatus are overlapped with an outside shape of the mount apparatus.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes a forced air cooling mechanism that uses driving of a fan. The imaging apparatus further includes a lens mount, an air intake port, and an air exhaust port. The lens mount is provided on a front surface of an apparatus main body. A lens device is detachably attachable to the lens mount. The air intake port is formed in a first protruding portion on a first side surface of the apparatus main body. The air exhaust port is formed in a second protruding portion on a second side surface of the apparatus main body. The second side surface is different from the first side surface.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes an apparatus main body including a lens mount to which a lens device is detachably attachable, and at least two protruding portions protruding further to a front side in a direction of an optical axis than a mount surface on which the lens mount is provided. Amounts of protrusion in the direction of the optical axis of the at least two protruding portions are approximately the same.
