Abstract
A rotation regulating device and a lens barrel includes a rotating ring, a holder that rotatably holds the rotating ring, a rotation regulator that regulates the rotation of the rotating ring by contacting and stopping the rotating ring, and a receiver that receives a part of the rotation regulator. The rotation regulator is held on the holder and formed of an elastic body. The holder includes a holding shaft that holds the rotation regulator and a rotation stopper that stops the rotation regulator to prevent the rotation regulator from rotating about the holding shaft.
