Реферат: A camera is provided with alternative mounting structures, one for an extensible flash and another for a fixed flash. One of the mounting structures is used for securing and aligning a selected alternative extensible or fixed flash device. The other is covered by a camera casing. The casing defines first and second apertures aligned with the first and second mounting structures, respectively. The first aperture provides access through the casing for mounting the extensible flash assembly on the first mounting structure and the second aperture permits passage through the casing of illumination from the fixed flash assembly. A method of assembling a photographic camera also is provided including the steps of assembling alternative extensible and fixed flash assemblies; forming a core including alternative flash mounting structures corresponding to and adapted to receive the respective flash assemblies; coupling a selected one of the flash assemblies to the corresponding mounting structure; and covering the core with a camera casing.
