Camera module and imaging apparatus

Abstract

A camera module includes: a barrel; a movable lens provided to be movable in the barrel in an optical axis direction; an imaging device that captures an image of a subject viewed through the movable lens; and an actuator that changes the distance between the movable lens and the imaging device, wherein the actuator has a first power feed terminal provided at one end thereof and a second power feed terminal provided at the other end thereof, the first terminal attached on the side where the movable lens is present, the second terminal attached on the side where the barrel is present, the actuator bends when electric power is fed to each of the first and second terminals and changes the distance between the movable lens and the imaging device, and each of the first and second terminals, when electric power is fed thereto, bends and changes the distance between the movable lens and the imaging device.
