Abstract
A lens drive device has a support section for supporting a shake correction movable section relative to a shake correction stationary section. The support section has: an upper frame body; a plate-shaped first side support body for connecting the upper frame body and the shake correction stationary section; and a plate-shaped second side support body for connecting the upper frame body and the shake correction movable section. The first side support body and the second side support body are formed from an elastomeric material. As the shake correction movable section moves in a first direction, the first side support body is bent in the opposite directions at two Y-hinge sections extending in a second direction. As the shake correction movable section moves in the second direction, the second side support body is bent in the opposite directions at two X-hinge sections extending in the first direction.
