Lens driving device and camera module including lens driving device

A camera module comprising:

• a housing;
• a lens barrel in which at least one lens is disposed;
• a lens holder in which the lens barrel is disposed;
• a frame supporting the lens holder;
• a carrier in which the lens holder and the frame are disposed, the carrier being disposed in the housing;
• and
• an image stabilization driver comprising an image stabilization magnet and an image stabilization coil facing each other and configured to apply a driving force to the lens holder in a direction perpendicular to an optical axis of the lens barrel,
• wherein the lens holder comprises a molded frame structure, and a magnet mounting bracket comprising an upper plate member protruding away from an upper end of an external side of the molded frame structure in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis, and
• an upper side of the upper plate member is disposed on a same plane as an upper side of the molded frame structure of the lens holder.

A lens driving device comprising:

• a lens holder configured to hold a lens barrel;
