Abstract:

A protective carrying case for a video camera has peripheral side walls and a bottom wall defining a camera-receiving receptacle with an open top through which a camera can be inserted and removed. The case is provided with a top cover that is arranged to normally close the open top of the camera-receiving receptacle, and a side wall of the receptacle is preferably provided with a door-opening that is normally closed by a door for enabling a person carrying the encased camera to slip a hand into the receptacle when the door is partially or fully open for operating the camera, either without removing it from the case and its receiving receptacle or for removing the camera free and clear of the case and its receiving receptacle. In the former instance, the bottom of the receptacle is provided with openings for the objective lens and the microphone of a received camera and the cover for the open top of the receptacle is provided with an opening for the view finder of a received camera, such openings being covered with light or sound passing material as appropriate. The door-opening and the door therefor preferably extend across the width of the receptacle side wall which confronts the operating side of the received camera, with a portion thereof overlapping an adjoining side wall, and, in the latter instance noted above, both the door-opening and the door extending upwardly from a location above the bottom of the receptacle to coincidence with the open top of the receptacle, so the camera can be lifted free and clear for operation outside the case.
