Abstract
An electronic device includes a container, a camera, a sheet, and a shutter support. The camera is accommodated in the container and includes a lens on which light is to be incident from an outside of the container. The sheet covers the camera from a light incident side of the lens and allows the light to be incident on the lens. The shutter support is included in the container, and supports a shutter while attached to the container such that the shutter is slidable between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position the shutter is located between the camera and the sheet to cover the light incident side of the lens and shield the lens from the light. In the open position the shutter exposes the lens.
