Abstract

A camera having a metallic front cover comprises a plastic inner cover to mount the front cover to a main body. The inner cover is provided with a step wall. Height of the step wall is more than thickness of the front cover. A pair of hollows are formed in the step wall. A pair of engaging projections are provided on an edge of the front cover. The front cover is attached to the inner cover by fitting the engaging projection into the hollow so that the front cover is adapted to be not lifted up from the inner cover.
