Abstract
A camera module includes a carrier configured to move in an optical axis direction, a frame and a lens holder disposed in the carrier in the optical axis direction and configured to move together with the carrier in the optical axis direction, a first ball member disposed between the carrier and the frame, a second ball member disposed between the frame and the lens holder, and a third ball member disposed between the carrier and the lens holder. The frame and the lens holder are configured to move together in a first axis direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction. The lens holder is configured to move relatively with respect to the frame in a second axis direction perpendicular to the first axis direction, and the third ball member has more contact points with the carrier than the first ball member.
