Abstract:
In a camera module 1 of the present invention, a mechanical shutter 2 is provided above a top surface of a lens unit 3, and a protrusion section formed to an end of a lens 31 is held in a depression section formed on a back surface of the mechanical shutter 2. With the arrangement, it is possible to cause the camera module 1 employing the mechanical shutter 2 to be smaller and thinner at the same time.
