Auto focus and optical image stabilization in a compact folded camera
Abstract
A folding chamber module (100, 200, 1100) comprising: a) a lens module (104, 204, 1004, 1104) having a lens optical axis (206, 1106), and b) an optical path folding element (OPFE) (102, 208, 1108) for folding light from a first optical path (205, 1105) to a second optical path (206, 1106), towards an image sensor (106, 202, 1102), the second optical path (206, 1106) being along the second optical axis (206, 1106), characterized in that the lens module (104, 204, 1004, 1104) is designed to be moved for autofocus (AF) along a first direction substantially parallel to the optical axis of the lens (206, 1106) and to be moved for optical image stabilization (OIS) along a first direction. second direction substantially orthogonal to both the first (205, 1106) and second optical paths (206, 1106) to compensate for the tilt of the folding camera module (100, 200, 1100) about the first direction, and wherein the OPFE (102, 208, 1108) is designed to be tilted for OIS around an OPFE tilt axis (102, 208, 1108) that is parallel to the second direction to compensate for the tilt of the folding camera module (100, 200, 1100) around the second address.
