Optical unit with shake correction function

An optical unit with a shake correction function, comprising:

• a movable body comprising a camera module;
• a turning support mechanism which turnably supports the movable body around an optical axis of a lens of the camera module;
• a gimbal mechanism which turnably supports the turning support mechanism around a first axis intersecting the optical axis and turnably supports the turning support mechanism around a second axis intersecting the optical axis and the first axis;
• and
• a fixed body which supports the movable body through the gimbal mechanism and the turning support mechanism;
• wherein the turning support mechanism comprises:
• a plate roll which is fixed to the movable body;
• a plate holder which comprises a facing part which faces the plate roll in a direction of the optical axis, and the plate holder being supported by the gimbal mechanism in a turnable state around the first axis;
• a plurality of spherical bodies which are capable of rolling between the plate roll and the facing part;
• and
• a magnetic attraction mechanism structured to generate an attraction force so that the plate roll and the facing part come close to each other in the direction of the optical axis;
• wherein the magnetic attraction mechanism comprises:
• an attraction part which is provided in a part in a circumferential direction around the optical axis in one of the plate roll and the plate holder;
• and
• an attracted part which is provided in a part in the circumferential direction in an other of the plate roll and the plate holder and is attracted by the attraction part;
• and
• wherein the attraction part comprises a magnet.
