The camera (10) has a housing (11) for receiving a leading end of a guide spacer of an endoscope. A receiving chamber is provided in the housing. A selective mask (21) is arranged in the receiving chamber in the cabinet. The selective mask surrounds an image-taking lens, and a protection element (19). A light source (13) i.e. LED, is utilized for emitting light rays through the protection element, where the light rays are reflected from the image-taking lens. The protection element consists of a material selected from a group of transparent adhesives, glasses, acrylic and plastics.一種適用於內視鏡的微型攝影裝置,包含有:一殼體,具有一容置空間;至少一光源,位於該容置空間;一第一保護件,係為透明,位於該容置空間且位於該至少一光源的前端;一取像鏡頭,位於該容置空間;一第二保護件,係為透明,位於該容置空間且位於該取像鏡頭前端;以及一遮罩,位於該容置空間,且將該取像鏡頭及該第二保護件遮住,並且保留該第二保護件的端面開放而可供光線進入以進行取像,該遮罩係使該光源所發出的光線在該殼體內時不會經由該第二保護件反射至該取像鏡頭。藉此,可避免不當的光線干擾,進而使得取像更為清晰。10...適用於內視鏡的微型攝影裝置11...殼體12...容置空間13...光源15...第一保護件17...取像鏡頭19...第二保護件21...遮罩
