Abstract

The invention is a security bracket assembly for preventing theft of camera lenses from cameras that are on display at retail locations. The bracket assembly carries and partially receives the camera body. The assembly has a forward shield that prevents finger access to the lens release mechanism that allows detachment of the lens from the camera body. The forward shield may be removed from the assembly so that a camera lens can be swapped without disconnecting other security or power features associated with the camera display post.
