To provide a camera frame assembly which is prevented from a flash charging by scrolling of a film by not using a flash circuit and attachable and detachable parts or appliance when batteries exist in a battery compartment.
The camera frame assembly 1 has a flash unit 14 having a self-oscilation charging circuit and the battery compartment 30. The flash unit 14 has proximal battery contact points and distal battery contacts. The contacts delineate an active battery station housing the batteries 20 in electrical series within the compartment 30. A battery grip is arranged outside the proximal battery contacts in the compartment 30 and delineates a standby battery station sufficiently parted from the proximal battery contacts so as to be insulated from the circuit.
