A camera module may include a set of housing elements that at least partially defines an interior cavity, a set of lens elements, an image sensor positioned within the interior cavity to receive light through the set of lens elements, and a substrate assembly. The substrate assembly may include a set of rigid substrates, a first set of electrical contacts positioned on a first surface of the set of rigid substrates, and a second set of electrical contacts positioned on a second surface of the set of rigid substrates. The substrate assembly may be positioned such that a first portion of the substrate assembly is positioned inside the interior cavity and a second portion of the substrate assembly extends outside of the interior cavity.
