Abstract
Abstract A circuit element mounting structure for an electronic still camera having a photographing lens, a recording medium, a magnetic recording unit provided with a magnetic head, a base, an inner housing lid housing the recording medium and which can be moved into and out of contact with the magnetic head on the base, an outer lid located outside of the inner housing lid, and an image pickup element for converting an image made through the photographing lens into an electric signal. The circuit element mounting structure has a circuit base plate, on which is provided at least a circuit for recording an image on the recording medium and a circuit for driving the recording medium and the magnetic head, with the circuit base plate being disposed along a bottom of the base and a top of the inner housing lid.
