Abstract: A method for producing a rare earth aluminate sintered body includes: preparing a molded body by mixing a fluorescent material having a composition of a rare earth aluminate and a raw material mixture comprising an oxide containing at least one rare earth element Ln selected from the group consisting of Y, La, Lu, Gd, and Tb, an oxide containing Ce, an oxide containing Al, and optionally an oxide containing at least one element M1 selected from the group consisting of Ga and Sc; and calcining the molded body to obtain a sintered body.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the present invention, at least parts or all of the windows for tarry lamps are located in the outside of the front cover by constructing the front cover portion between the top face and left-hand side face of the front cover, and the front cover portion between the top face and right-hand side face of the front cover as the inclined planes respectively. That is, since the windows for tarry lamps are not covered by the front cover as conventional ones, visibility from the external improves.

Abstract: A lens-fitted photo film unit is pre-loaded with photo film. First and second taking lenses are arranged in an arranging direction crosswise to a photographic optical axis, and have focal lengths different from each other. A rotatable lens holder supports the first and second taking lenses. An externally operable button member is operable by external operation, rotates the lens holder in the arranging direction, and sets the first and second taking lenses selectively on the photographic optical axis. A viewfinder optical system is settable at first and second viewfinder magnifications, and adapted to observation of a photographic field. A magnification changer mechanism including a lever is shifted in response to rotation of the lens holder, and sets the viewfinder optical system at the first and second viewfinder magnifications respectively when the first and second taking lenses are set on the photographic optical axis.
