PHOTOGRAPHING APPARATUS AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE
A photographing apparatus and an electronic device are provided. The photographing apparatus includes a frame assembly, a first movement assembly, first support members, a second movement assembly, second support members, and a lens module. The frame assembly is provided with a receiving cavity. The first movement assembly is suspended in the receiving cavity, and a movement cavity is provided inside the first movement assembly. The first support members are each arranged at least partially in a respective first movement groove and abut against the first movement assembly and the frame assembly. The first movement grooves adapted to the first movement assembly and the second movement grooves adapted to the second movement assembly are provided such that the photographing apparatus is of a compact structure on condition that the lens module can rotate about the first axis of rotation and/or the second axis of rotation.
DRIVE APPARATUS AND EQUIPMENT
A drive apparatus includes a first unit including a coil, a second unit including a magnet, and a third unit having an electronic device. The third unit is fixed to the first unit. The first unit and the third unit move relative to the second unit by a magnetic force between the coil and the magnet. The first unit includes a first opening and a second opening in a direction along a principal surface of the electronic device in an area overlapping the principal surface. The first unit is such that an induced current due to a magnetic field generated from the coil does not flow to a first portion located between the first opening and the second opening in the first unit.
Liquid lens
A liquid lens includes a first plate including a cavity in which a conductive liquid and a non-conductive liquid are disposed; a first electrode placed under the first plate; a second electrode placed on the first plate; a second plate on the second electrode; and a third plate under the first electrode, wherein a region of the second plate, which is disposed on the conductive liquid, includes a first region having a first thickness and including an optical axis, and a second region extending from the first region and having a second thickness, and the first thickness is greater than the second thickness.
Imaging apparatus and interchangeable lens apparatus that utilize image circle information of an imaging optical system in the interchangeable lens apparatus
An interchangeable lens apparatus attachable to an imaging apparatus configured to move an image sensor in an image stabilization includes an imaging optical system, a storage unit configured to store image circle information including a relationship between an imaging condition and position information of an image circle of the imaging optical system, and a transmission unit configured to transmit at least part of the image circle information to the imaging apparatus.
USER INTERFACE FOR CAMERA EFFECTS
The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces. In some examples, the electronic device transitions between user interfaces for capturing photos based on data received from a first camera and a second camera. In some examples, the electronic device provides enhanced zooming capabilities that result in visual pleasing results for a displayed digital viewfinder and for captured videos. In some examples, the electronic device provides user interfaces for transitioning a digital viewfinder between a first camera with an applied digital zoom to a second camera with no digital zoom. In some examples, the electronic device prepares to capture media at various magnification levels. In some examples, the electronic device enhanced capabilities for navigating through a plurality of values.
Position detection device, camera module, and rotary actuator
A position detection device includes a magnetic field generator and a magnetic sensor. The magnetic field generator is configured so that a mode of variation of a direction of a target magnetic field relative to variations in a position of a lens is such that the direction of the target magnetic field varies nonlinearly relative to the variations in the position of the lens. The magnetic sensor is configured so that a mode of variation of a detection signal relative to variations in the direction of the target magnetic field is such that the detection signal varies nonlinearly relative to the variations in the direction of the target magnetic field.

GEAR-SKIPPING PREVENTION MECHANISM
A gear-skipping prevention mechanism including a first gear, a second gear, and a positioning member is provided. The first gear is sleeved on an axle. The second gear meshes with the first gear and has a first guiding groove. The positioning member includes at least one body and at least one engaging portion. Each of the at least one body has a sleeving hole. The sleeving hole is sleeved on the axle, and each of the at least one engaging portion is slidably disposed in the first guiding groove to limit a relative position between the first gear and the second gear.
LENS DRIVING DEVICE, CAMERA MODULE AND OPTICAL INSTRUMENT
A camera module including a first camera module and a second camera module including a second side that faces a first side of the first camera module, wherein the first camera module includes a housing; a bobbin disposed inside the housing; a coil disposed on the bobbin; and a magnet arranged at a side of the housing and facing the coil, wherein the magnet is disposed biased toward a center line of the side of the housing.
User interface for capturing photos with different camera magnifications
