Abstract

A shutter for an objective lens particularly for a photoprinter or the like in which the objective lens must be frequently opened and shut. The shutter includes an arm swingably driven by an actuater and provided at a forward end with a pair of shutter blades. The objective lens is placed in a range over which the pair of shutter blades swing as the arm swings so that the objective lens may be received in a gap defined between this pair of shutter blades and the objective lens may be opened or shut as the arm swings.
