SUBSTANCE: invention relates to an image capturing device and accessories, each of which includes a bayonet provided with leads, which provide electrical connection to another device. Disclosed image capturing device includes a second bayonet configured to be connected to a first bayonet included in an accessory, wherein the accessory is mounted on and removed from the image capturing device by rotating the first bayonet relative to the second bayonet in a circular direction. Second bayonet comprises a plurality of leads arranged in the circumferential direction of the second bayonet and configured to be used in the electrical connection, and a terminal holder configured to hold the plurality of terminals. Output holder has a height difference to hold a plurality of terminals in different positions in the direction of the central axis of the second bayonet. Plurality of terminals includes a first lead, configured to be used to supply power to drive an internal component of an accessory, and a second terminal configured to indicate the ground level corresponding to the first terminal. Second lead is located closer in the direction of the accessory installation than the other leads from the plurality of leads at the preset step of the terminal holder, and is connected to the corresponding one of the plurality of the accessory leads by the first of the plurality of leads when the accessory is mounted on the image capturing device.
