CAMERA SUPPORT STRUCTURE

A camera support structure for supporting a camera disposed adjacent to an exterior member includes a cylinder fixed to a vehicle body, a piston, an annular bag, and an interlocking member. The piston is inserted into the cylinder such that the piston is a relatively displaceable along an axial direction of the cylinder. The piston is configured to support the camera. The annular bag is provided between a peripheral edge of a lens of the camera and an end portion of the cylinder. The camera projects from the end portion of the cylinder. The interlocking member couples the exterior member and the piston. The interlocking member moves the piston in a direction in which the lens is retracted into the cylinder in response to displacement of the exterior member. The annular bag covers at least a part of a surface of the lens in response to movement of the piston.
