An information processing terminal includes a camera serving as an image capture unit for capturing an image of a subject; a body part having a front surface which is a predetermined surface on which a display unit for displaying a captured image including the subject captured by the image capture unit is disposed; and a coupling part that directly or indirectly couples the image capture unit relatively rotatably to the body part via a plurality of rotation axes including a pivot axis that is a first rotation axis for changing an angle formed by an optical axis direction of the image capture unit and the normal direction to the display unit, and a pivot axis that is a second rotation axis in a direction different from the first rotation axis.

Folded cameras comprising a movable lens having a lens optical axis and positioned in an optical path between an optical path folding element (OPFE) and an image sensor, wherein the OPFE folds light from a first direction to a second direction, the second direction being substantially along the lens optical axis, and an actuator for controlled lens movement, the actuator including or being attached to a shield partially surrounding the lens, the shield having an opening positioned and dimensioned to enable installation of the lens into the shield from an insertion direction substantially parallel to the first direction. A folded camera disclosed herein may be included together with an upright camera in a dual-camera.

An information handling system peripheral camera is built in a cylindrical housing, such as an extruded aluminum cylinder, having a bottom portion rotationally coupled to an upper portion by a hinge to act as a bracket that couples the peripheral camera to a display upper surface. A bracket disposed in the housing and exposed by rotation of the bottom portion to an open position rests on the display upper surface to rotate for varied camera tilt. The bottom portion leverages against a rear surface of the display to hold the camera in position.

A device mount mounts a display with an aspect ratio greater than or less than 1:1. A camera is integrated into the device mount at a position above a top edge of the display. A hinge of the device mount rotates the mounted display. A mounting plate of the hinge couples the hinge to the device mount, and a shuttle of the hinge couples the display to the hinge to rotate the display between a landscape mode and a portrait mode. The hinge is configured such that rotation of the display from landscape mode into portrait mode translates a center of the display away from the camera on a vertical axis and rotation of the display back to landscape mode translates the center of the display towards the camera on the vertical axis.
