Abstract
A camera module includes a module structure constituted by a lens unit to which an image pickup lens is attached and a package to which an imaging element is attached so as to be opposite to the image pickup lens. An optical filter is arranged between the imaging element and the image pickup lens. A portion of a flat surface of the optical filter is fixed to a filter fixing portion via an adhesive. The optical filter is adhered to the filter fixing portion in a state in which an end portion formed by a side surface of the optical filter and the flat surface is in noncontact with the filter fixing portion or the adhesive. Minute particles generated from a cut surface of the optical filter fall outside the filter fixing portion.
