Abstract
A lens holder for holding a plurality of lenses is provided. The lens holder is assembled from a plurality of subunits divided on a plane that is parallel to an optical axis. A subunit includes a substantially cylindrical outer shell and front side rear side portions that extend from an inner surface of the outer shell toward the optical axis to support at least one lens from in front and behind respectively. When the at least one lens is attached between the portions, one of the portions is harder to deform than the other of portions.
