A holding base is inserted into the opening from a direction orthogonal to an optical axis of the imaging lens and holds the holding frame. A driving gear drives the holding frame in the direction orthogonal to the optical axis of the imaging lens. The holding base has an engagement portion that engages with the driving gear when the holding base is inserted into the opening.
