    Abstract: Multi-cameras and in particular dual-cameras comprising a Wide camera comprising a Wide lens and a Wide image sensor, the Wide lens having a Wide effective focal length EFLW and a folded or non-folded Tele camera comprising a Tele lens with a first optical axis, a Tele image sensor and an OPFE, wherein the Tele lens includes, from an object side to an image side, a first lens element group G1, a second lens element group G2 and a third lens element group G3, wherein at least two of the lens element groups are movable relative to the image sensor along the first optical axis to bring the Tele lens to a Macro state or to two zoom states, wherein an effective focal length (EFL) of the Tele lens is changed from EFLT,min in one zoom state to EFLT,max in the other zoom state, wherein EFLTmin>1.5×EFLW and wherein EFLTmax>1.5×EFLTmin. In the Macro state, the lens with EFLT,min allows for focusing on objects with short object-camera distances such as 5 cm. Actuators for enabling the movements are also disclosed.

    Abstract: Rotation mechanisms for rotating a payload in two, first and second degrees of freedom (DOF), comprising a static base, a first rotation arm coupled mechanically to the static base through a first rotation joint and used for rotating the payload relative to the static base around a first rotation axis that passes through the first rotation joint, a second rotation arm coupled mechanically to the static base through a second rotation joint and used for rotating the payload relative to the static base around a second rotation axis that passes through the second rotation joint, and a follower member rigidly coupled to the payload and arranged to keep a constant distance from the second rotation arm, wherein the rotation of the first arm rotates the payload around the first DOF and the rotation of the second arm rotate the payload around the second DOF.

    Abstract: Folded lens modules and assemblies characterized by low height and large entrance pupil (clear aperture), designed for folded cameras in consumer electronics and specifically in mobile phones. In some embodiments, a folded lens assembly comprises a plurality of lens elements that include, in order for an object side to an image side, a first lens element L1 with a clear aperture CA(S1) and a second lens element L2 with a clear aperture CA(S3), wherein CA(S1)/CA(S3)>1.2 and wherein the lens assembly has a ratio between an image sensor diagonal length SDL and a clear aperture of a last lens element surface CA(S2N), SDL/CA(S2N)>1.5.
