Abstract: Folded digital camera module comprising an optical path folding element (OPFE) for folding light from a first optical path with a first optical axis to a second optical path with a second optical axis perpendicular to the first optical axis, an image sensor, and a lens module carrying a lens with a symmetry axis parallel to the second optical axis. The camera module is adapted to perform optical image stabilization (OIS) involving at least one tilt motion of the OPFE tilt around an axis such that the OPFE tilt creates an image Roll movement and a shift movement, the OPFE tilt-created image Roll movement compensating for a folded camera module-induced Roll movement and the shift movement cancellable by a movement of the lens module.

Abstract: The imaging apparatus comprises a retractable structure with active and inactive positions. In the inactive position the lens group and the lens group actuator reside close to an image sensor. An activating actuator moves the lens group and at least one lens group actuator between active and inactive positions. The activating actuator comprises a movable ferromagnetic element and a fixed electromagnetic element. When an electric current is applied to the electromagnetic element, the ferromagnetic element moves to a predefined position. The retractable lens movement is in one embodiment bistable, for example a piece of ferromagnetic material holding the retractable element in place.
