Abstract
A light quantity control unit includes a base plate having an aperture forming an optical axis; a blade member for regulating a condition of the aperture; a coil and a magnet rotor polarized with two magnetic poles, formed on the base plate; and a pair of magnetic force inducing members. Each member has a base end part, and a leading end part extending from the base end part perpendicular to the optical axis and having an equal thickness throughout an entire length thereof. The leading end parts surround the magnet rotor at a middle area thereof and have magnetic poles for rotating the magnet rotor. A regulating device is formed at the base plate for regulating a rotation of the magnet rotor to swing at a predetermined angle between the magnetic poles formed in the magnetic force inducing members.
