Abstract
A lens support structure includes a tubular holding frame a flat holding surface orthogonal to a center axis of the frame, and a lens held within the holding frame with a planar part, orthogonal to the optical axis of an optically functioning surface, abutting the holding surface. Since the planar part of the lens abuts the flat holding surface, the lens can be moved in directions orthogonal to the optical axis to enable optical axis adjustment.
