An objective lens for an endoscope, an actuator for focusing the objective lens, and an endoscope system including the objective lens are provided. The objective lens for an endoscope includes a plurality of lenses and a stop, and an optical element disposed adjacent to the stop, wherein a focal length may be varied by moving the optical element in a direction different from an optical axis.

Objective lens for endoscopic device, actuator for focusing, and endoscopic system

A camera and a lens module are provided. The camera includes a lens module and an image sensor. The lens module includes a lens unit including a protrusion, the lens unit being configured to move in a direction of an optical axis of the camera. The lens module further includes a movement guide including an inclination part, the protrusion being configured to slide along the inclination part while the lens unit moves in the direction of the optical axis. The lens module further includes a driver configured to drive the lens unit in the direction of the optical axis, and a pre-loader configured to provide a pre-load between the lens unit and the movement guide in the direction of the optical axis.

Camera and lens module

A shutter device and an image capturing apparatus including the shutter device are provided. The shutter device includes at least one shutter blade assembly, each of the at least one shutter blade assembly including at least one shutter blade that opens and closes the shutter opening and a driving link that drives the shutter blades, and at least one actuators for rotating the driving link, wherein a rotation center of the actuator is eccentric from a rotation center of the driving link.

An image stabilizer that compensates for external vibrations by moving an imaging unit. The image stabilizer includes a first frame on which an imaging unit is installed, a second frame that is connected to the first frame using three points and guides movement of the first frame in a first direction and second direction, and a third frame that is connected to the second frame using three points and guides the first frame and the second frame to move in a third direction and fourth direction, which are perpendicular to the first and second directions.

Image stabilizer

A focal plane shutter having a front film and a back film which expose a charge-coupled device to light as they move back and forth between a cover plate and a base plate, between a charging position and a discharging position at a certain time interval. The focal plane shutter includes at least one lever member which is connected to the front film and/or back film, and which amplifies an impact force generated during a charging and a discharging movement of the front film and/or back film using a lever action. An elevating member slides in a direction parallel with the movement of the front film and/or back film by the impact force amplified in the lever member. An impact absorbing unit regulates the sliding movement of the elevating member to absorb impact energy generated by the movement and stop of the front film and/or back film.

Focal plane shutter and camera having the same

An image stabilizer includes a rotor including a lens assembly, and configured to move perpendicular to an optical axis of light passing through the lens assembly, and a suspension unit configured to support movement of the rotor and to prevent the rotor from moving non-perpendicular to the optical axis of the light passing through the lens assembly. Accordingly, the image stabilizer prevents variance of characteristics of a rotor in a low frequency band according to the position and distortion of phase characteristics in a high frequency band. Therefore, the image stabilizer has consistent operation characteristics regardless of the position, posture, and movement of a person using an image capture device containing the image stabilizer.
