Adjustable lens system

A zoom and focusing lens system for use with a camera phone comprising:

• a housing comprising sides connected to one another at corners;
• an adjustable lens assembly, comprising a lens element, mounted within the housing and placeable in different focusing states and different focal length states;
• first, second, third and fourth corner regions defined between the lens assembly and corners of the housing, said first and third corner regions being on opposite sides of the lens assembly, said the second and fourth corner regions being on opposite sides of the lens assembly;
• a first MEMS based micro-motor mounted within each of the first and third corner regions, operably coupled to at least a part of the lens assembly for movement of said at least a part of the lens assembly to change the focusing state of the adjustable lens assembly;
• and
• a second MEMS based micro-motor mounted within each of the second and fourth corner regions, operably coupled to the lens element for movement of said lens element to change the focal length state of the adjustable lens assembly.
