Abstract

See full text

The light-quantity control apparatus includes a base member, and a light-quantity control blade having a light-quantity control portion to control a quantity of light passing through a fixed aperture and a supported portion rotatably supported with respect to the base member. The light-quantity control portion and the supported portion of the light-quantity control blade are each rotated along a plane parallel to the aperture face, an intermediate portion thereof formed between the light-quantity control portion and the supported portion has a tilt with respect to the aperture plane toward the optical axis direction so that the light-quantity control portion is disposed distant from the supported portion in the optical axis direction. Thereby a concave space facing the fixed aperture is formed inside in the radial direction than the light-quantity control blade.
