FINDER DEVICE OF SINGLE-LENS REFLEX CAMERA

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a finder device of a single-lens reflex camera, which enables photographing of a subject image as the finder device checks the subject image when an image pickup element is arranged to be inclined. SOLUTION: The single-lens reflex camera is constituted so that the subject image formed by a photographing lens can be picked up and the subject image is made visible in the finder device, wherein a finder visual field frame 11 positioned in the finder device enables adjustment of a rotating angle position around a fiber optical axis. By adjusting the rotational position of the finder visual field frame 11, the inclinations of the finder visual field frame 11 and the image pickup element are aligned so as to be able to obtain the photographing image of the same inclined state as that visually recognized by the finder device, and as a result, the photographer does not feel the sense of incongruity.
