An adjusting device includes a base body, at least two drive elements, and a movable platform. Each of the drive elements abuts against a lever transmission device to perform a defined adjustment motion relative to the base body as a tilting motion about an axis through the platform and/or a translational motion parallel to an axis perpendicular to a platform plane. Joint elements allow for a tilting motion of the platform solely about the tilting axis. A spring element counteracts a parasitic translational motion in the platform plane and/or a parasitic rotatory motion of the platform about an axis of rotation arranged perpendicular to the platform plane due to the adjustment motion.
