Abstract
A lens holding frame includes: a frame portion, a plate-shaped portion, holding portions, and auxiliary holding portions. The frame portion has a tubular shape extending along a reference axis. The plate-shaped portion overhangs inward from an inner circumferential surface of the frame portion. The holding portions protrude at sites of at least three places, which are away from each other in a circumferential direction around the reference axis on a surface of the plate-shaped portion, in a direction along the reference axis and are located on an abutting plane. The auxiliary holding portions protrude from a surface of the plate-shaped portion up to heights at which the auxiliary holding portions do not reach the abutting plane in the same direction as the holding portions.
