A camera module according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a lens group; a lens support unit for accommodating the lens group; a magnet arranged on the outer surface of the lens support unit; a yoke portion spaced apart from the magnet and arranged to face the magnet; and a coil arranged on the yoke portion so as to be spaced apart from and to face the magnet between the magnet and the yoke portion, wherein the lens group, the lens support unit, and the magnet move together along an optical axis according to a current applied to the coil, the yoke portion includes a first yoke and a second yoke arranged on the first yoke, the second yoke is arranged between the first yoke and the coil, and magnetism of the first yoke is stronger than that of the second yoke.

A voice coil motor includes a housing, a first lens holder, a second lens holder, a first electromagnetic drive assembly, and a second electromagnetic drive assembly. The first electromagnetic drive assembly generates a first electromagnetic force to drive the second lens holder to move in a moving direction. The second electromagnetic drive assembly is adapted to drive the first lens holder to move along the moving direction. The first magnetic steel portion includes a first magnet and a second magnet. The first coil includes a first wire portion and a second wire portion. When the first coil is conducted, a direction of current in the first wire portion and a direction of current in the second wire portion have at least components in opposite directions. The present disclosure can solve the jam problem when zooming, and also increase the zoom stroke.

An optical assembly for an autofocus imaging system for capturing at least one image of an object appearing in an imaging field of view (FOV) is provided. The optical assembly includes a front aperture along an optical axis and a front lens group along the optical axis that receives light from the object of interest. The position of the front lens group is adjustable to change a focal distance of the optical assembly. The optical assembly further includes an actuator physically coupled to the front lens group that adjusts the position of the front lens. A rear lens group is disposed along the optical axis to receive the light from the front lens group, and an imaging sensor is disposed at a back focal distance of the rear lens group, to detect the light.

A remote control unit for controlling a motion picture camera comprises a grip section at a first side for holding the remote control unit, an extension section at a second side and a display section extending from the grip section to the second side. The display section comprises a display at a front side thereof, which is oriented orthogonal to a viewing axis. The extension section projects away from the display section. The extension section comprises an operating side facing away from the grip section, at which side a rotatable operating element for setting control commands is arranged.
