Abstract

A camera module includes: an optical path folding member configured to refract or reflect light incident along a first optical axis in a direction of a second optical axis intersecting the first optical axis; a driving assembly configured to provide driving force to rotate the optical path folding member on a plane intersecting the first optical axis; and a first ball bearing and a second ball bearing supporting the optical path folding member such that the optical path folding member is enabled to rotate on the plane. A distance from the first ball bearing to the first optical axis is less than a distance from the second ball bearing to the first optical axis.
