An exemplary lens actuator includes a lens barrel, a coil wrapped around the lens barrel, a plurality of magnets, a bracket, and a first resilient plate. The lens barrel includes a main body and a plurality of first positioning pins protruding out from the main body. The first resilient plate includes an outer frame, an inner frame substantially coaxial with the outer frame, and a plurality of spring portions interconnected between the outer frame and the inner frame. A fixed panel is mounted on the first side of the bracket. The outer frame of the first resilient plate is fixed on one portion of the fixed panel. The inner frame of the first resilient plate is fixed on the lens barrel. The first positioning pins extend through the inner frame of the first resilient plate and resist on another portion of the fixed panel.
