Abstract:
An indication system of a camera which allows the use of an indication system such that photographing information of a camera is indicated with illumination by a plural number of indication elements being positioned in parallel. Further such letters and symbols which distinguish different kinds of photographing information are indicated by at least a part of the plural number of indication elements.
Abstract:
In a single lens reflex camera, a lever responsive to operation of a shutter button initiates timing of an electronic shutter control a predetermined time interval before the shutter is actually opened. The predetermined time interval corresponds to the time elapse between the moment the shutter control changes the current which operates the magnet that holds the shutter open and the moment the magnet actually causes the shutter to close. After this predetermined time interval the shutter is opened, such as by running of the opening screen. After the measured shutter interval has ended, a current in the shutter control changes and operates on a magnet which has been holding the shutter open and causes the magnet to close the shutter, such as by releasing a closing screen.

A vehicle electronic apparatus (1) includes an electronic control section (2) received in an accommodation cavity (23) in an instrument panel (22) in a vehicle for effecting an electronic function in the vehicle, a switch section (3) detachably attached to the electronic control section (2) for controlling the electronic control section (2), and a cover panel (4) to be fitted in the accommodating cavity (23) in the instrument panel (22) to cover the switch section (3) at the front side. It is possible to use in common the electronic section (2) which is an expensive electronic element and also to design the cover panel (4) with flexibility. The switch section (3) can be produced in compliance with the designed cover panel (4). A common use of electronic parts will achieve a reduction of cost and enhance a flexibility in design of an interior of the vehicle.
Abstract:
A plant-growing system includes a covering material filled with a substrate for growing plants. The covering material has a bag form or a tubular form and is made of a water-impermeable resin sheet of woven or nonwoven fabric having a basis weight of 20 to 100 g/m.sup.2, a visible-ray reflectance of more than 60%, and an air-permeability of 10 to 200 sec/100 cc. Thus, the substrate does not suffer oxygen shortage, thereby promoting healthy growth of plant roots. Excellent air-permeability prevents an excessive rise in moisture and temperature within the plant-growing system. Further, since excess water is drained from the substrate to maintain a constant water level within the substrate, watering is easy to perform, and excess watering does not cause root rot. In a plant-growing method, the plant-growing system is placed on a ground surface while the covering material is held by a metallic part at its bottom as well as at its both side walls or single side wall. Thus, the metallic part keeps the covering material in shape. Further, the plant-growing system may be placed on a ridge formed on ground, whereby water contained in the covering material is divided by the ridge such that water is held along a lower section of each slope of the ridge. Thus, the plant-growing system can be placed stably on an unflat ground.
