    摘要: An optical apparatus includes holders configured to hold on a base member a third holding member that holds a third optical element among a plurality of optical elements, and provided at three locations in a circumferential direction around an optical axis when viewed from an optical axis direction, or a holder configured to holding the base member on another member. Where first, second, and third axes pass through the optical axis and holders at the three locations, a first driver and a first guide member are disposed in a first area between the first axis and the second axis, and a second driver and a second guide member are disposed in a second area between the first axis and the third axis. The first driver and second driver are disposed in two areas that at least partially overlap each other in the optical axis direction.

    摘要: Actuators for actuating a lens in a folded camera, folded cameras including such actuators and dual-cameras including such folded cameras. The actuators actuate a lens having a lens optical axis for auto-focus (AF) and optical image stabilization (OIS) and comprise a stationary sub-assembly that includes an OIS coil having an OIS coil plane and an AF coil having an AF coil plane, and a lens actuating sub-assembly movable relative to the stationary sub-assembly with a lens holder holding the lens, wherein the OIS coil plane is perpendicular to the AF coil plane and wherein the lens optical axis lies between the OIS coil plane and the AF coil plane. Some actuators have a design using VCM actuation and a reduced height due to top and/or bottom openings in actuator envelopes.

    摘要: A driving method is provided. The driving method includes providing first driving information to a first driving element to drive a first movable portion to move relative a fixed portion in a first direction. The first driving information has a total duration, and includes positive driving signal, negative driving signal, and middle driving signal. The positive driving signal has a positive duration, the negative driving signal has a negative duration, and the middle driving signal has a middle duration. The positive duration, the negative duration, and the middle duration add up as the total duration. A ratio of the positive duration to the total duration is between 0.1 and 0.15.
