Abstract
A camera assembly for a vehicle vision system includes an imager, a lens and a lens holder. The imager is disposed at a circuit element. The lens holder includes a barrel portion that houses the lens. The lens holder is positioned relative to the imager and includes a flange protruding outward from the barrel portion. The flange of the lens holder includes a generally flat structure having a planar surface that resides in a plane that is normal to an axis of the barrel portion. The lens holder is positioned relative to the imager such that the plane is parallel to the image plane and such that the planar flat surface is a predetermined distance from the image plane, thereby positioning the lens at a desired location relative to the imager.
