A mobile terminal including a terminal body; and a camera module provided in the terminal body. The camera module includes a lens assembly; an image sensor provided at a lower end of the lens assembly; a first actuator mounted with a first filter and a second filter provided on one side of the lens assembly to filter light incident on the image sensor, wherein the first actuator comprises first and second support walls, and a first plate supported by the first and second support walls and supporting the first and second filters; a filter change device configured to move the first filter to overlap with the lens assembly in a first state and to move the second filter to overlap with the lens assembly in a second state; and a cover constituting an appearance of the camera module and including a through hole corresponding to an optical axis of the camera module, the cover having an inner space accommodating the lens assembly and the first actuator.

Mobile terminal

A mobile terminal includes a terminal body, and a camera module provided on one side of the terminal body and including a lens assembly exposed outwardly in at least a portion thereof, an iris provided on an inner side of the lens assembly to adjust an amount of incident light, and an actuator moving the lens assembly and the iris, wherein the lens assembly includes a first lens assembly provided on a front side of the iris and exposed to the outside and a second lens assembly provided on a rear side of the iris and determining a magnification together with the first lens assembly, the actuator includes a moving member disposed on a rear side of the second lens assembly, a housing accommodating the moving member, and a driving unit provided between the moving member and the housing.

A mobile terminal and 3D image controlling method therein are provided, by which a user can be informed of a state of a 3D effect on one or more objects in a 3D image. The mobile terminal includes a first camera configured to capture a left-eye image for generating a 3D image, a second camera configured to capture a right-eye image for generating the 3D image, a display unit configured to display the 3D image generated based on the left-eye image and the right-eye image, and a controller configured to determine an extent of a 3D effect on at least one object included in the 3D image, and to control the display unit to display information indicating the determined extent of the 3D effect.
