An image-capturing element that receives subject image light entering into a
camera
body through a taking lens is packaged and mounted within the camera body via a
holder. The image-capturing element is mounted at the camera body by ensuring that
its light-receiving surface is aligned with the image-forming position of the taking
lens. A shield plate is provided on the rear side of the image-capturing element
and a conductive elastic body is clamped and pressed between the shield plate and
the rear portion of the camera body. The shield plate is grounded to the camera
body having a large grounding capacity by the conductive elastic body. The conductive
elastic body covers a gap at the periphery of the shield plate to absorb and block
the electromagnetic wave noise which would otherwise leak through the gap.
