Disclosed herein are apparatus and system aspects for a camera lens flexure collar. An aspect includes an interior wall with one or more inner protrusions, an exterior wall with one or more openings, a cam located between the interior wall and the exterior wall, an actuator arm coupled to the cam and extending through the one or more openings of the exterior wall, and two flexures. The aspect operates through manipulation of the actuator arm, where manipulation of the actuator arm moves the cam and causes a force through the one or more inner protrusions of the interior wall, causing the interior wall to move in the axial direction within the stress limitations of the two flexures. In this aspect, movement of the interior wall in the axial direction can focus one or more camera lenses.

Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, and method for accurately setting a focus flange depth and planarity of a camera lens. An aspect includes a lens housing with at least one camera lens, a camera body with an imaging plane, and a lens mount removably coupling the lens housing to the camera body via a coupling mechanism. At least one shim may be inserted between the lens mount and the camera body to adjust a depth, pitch, and yaw of the camera lens in the lens housing with respect to the imaging plane in the camera body. Each shim may comprise a body having an opening extending from an edge of the body to a center of the body. The opening of each shim is configured to receive the coupling mechanism such that the pitch and yaw may be adjusted without fully removing the lens housing from the camera body.
