  • Patent number: 7689118
    Abstract: An image capture apparatus has an electronic view finder assembly. The assembly has a casing including inner and outer casings; an accommodation spacing, an opening, a cover, an eye cup portion, a stopper, and a dust prevention cushion. The accommodation spacing accommodates the inner casing held in the same extension direction as the outer casing. The opening is provided in the outer casing for insertion of the inner casing into the accommodation spacing. The cover closes the opening. The eye cup portion is attached to a rearward end of the outer casing. A stopper stops forward movement of the inner casing accommodated in the accommodation spacing in the state of the opening closed by the cover. The dust prevention cushion is interposed in a compressed state between overall circumferential peripheries of respective rearwardly facing and forwardly facing wall faces of the inner and outer casings in the state where the forward movement of the inner casing is stopped by the stopper.
