SELF-PHOTOGRAPHING COLLIMATOR FOR CAMERA

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to photograph a picture balanced in composition at the time of photographing a photographer himself (or herself) while holding a camera turned to the photographer by his (or her) arm extended forward by oppositely fitting a backsight and an foresight to a camera. SOLUTION: The backsight 1 and the foresight 2 are fitted to the camera so as to be opposed to each other. When the face of a photographer trying to photograph himself (or herself) is arranged on a well composed position, the backsight 1 and the foresight 2 are set up in positional relation that a photographer's right eye exists on an extension line connecting the backsight 1 and the foresight 2. At the time of using the camera, the camera is held by the photographer's hand extended forward in the direction turned to the photographer and arranged on a position where the backsight 1 and the foresight 2 coincide with each other at the time of observing them by the photographer's right eye. When the backsight 1 and the foresight 2 are constituted as folding units, the convenience of the camera can be improved. Consequently a photographer can take a picture of himself (or herself) without using a self-timer or requesting photographing to a third person.
