An optical imaging system includes a plurality of fixed lenses disposed along an optical axis; a first reflective member disposed on an object side of the plurality of lenses; and a plurality of reflective members disposed on an image side of the plurality of lenses. At least one of the plurality of lenses is a variable lens having a variable focal length, and each of the plurality of reflective members is configured to move as the focal length of the variable lens changes.

Optical imaging system

An optical imaging system includes: a first lens group including a plurality of lenses; a second lens group including a plurality of lenses; a first reflecting member disposed on an object side of the first lens group; and a plurality of second reflecting members arranged between the second lens group and an image sensor. One or both of the first lens group and the second lens group is movable along an optical axis, an interval along the optical axis between the first lens group and the second lens group is varied between a first interval and a second interval smaller than the first interval, and as at least one of the first lens group and the second lens group is moved, one or more of the second reflecting members are moved.

A camera module includes a first lens group; a first optical path folding unit; a second lens group; and a second optical path folding unit. The first lens group, the first optical path folding unit, the second lens group, and the second optical path folding unit are sequentially disposed from an object side of the first lens group toward an imaging plane of the camera module. The first optical path folding unit includes a first fixed reflective member and a first movable reflective member configured to vary a length of an optical path between the first lens group and the second lens group, and the second optical path folding unit includes a second fixed reflective member and a second movable reflective member configured to vary a length of an optical path between the second lens group and an imaging plane.
