Abstract
A camera device includes an image sensor which is assembled into a case, a first perspective-control component including a convex partial spherical surface for performing perspective control, and a second perspective-control component including a concave partial spherical surface having a radius of curvature and a center of curvature which are equal to those of the convex partial spherical surface. Before completion of the assembly of the image sensor into the case, the second perspective-control component is mounted on the first perspective-control component attached to a back side of the image sensor, and perspective control is performed with the convex partial spherical surface and the concave partial spherical surface in surface contact with each other. The first perspective-control component and the second perspective-control component are secured to each other via an adhesive after completion of the perspective control.
