An object of a galvanometer mirror of the present invention is to offer excellent driving characteristics in which when a mirror is driven to tilt, the center of torque acting on a moving body can be set in the vicinity of the center of the moving body. A mirror 6 is firmly fixed in a depression at the front of a rectangular frame-like mirror holder 18 constituting the moving body. First and second coils 21 and 22 are attached on the outer circumferential surface of the mirror holder 18 in the back-and-forth direction thereof at both sides of a plane passing through the center of gravity G of the moving body and parallel to the surface of the mirror. The moving body is rotatably supported by springs 23 so that a rotation axis 9 and another rotation axis orthogonal to the rotation axis 9 pass through the center of gravity G. Magnets 31 and 33 are fixed to a stationary magnet holder 14 so as to lie at the right and the left sides of the first coil 21 and the upper and lower sides of the second coil 22, respectively. With this configuration, the centers of torque D1-1 and D2-2 acting on the first and second coils 21 and 22, respectively when driving current is applied to the first and second coils 21 and 22 are set in the vicinity of the center of gravity G and the supporting point of the springs 23, thereby leading to improved driving characteristics.
