Abstract

An image capturing module includes a casing, a lens component arranged in the casing, and a lens shade disposed directly facing the lens component and having a thin plate shape. The lens shade includes a first bottom surface close to the lens, a second bottom surface disposed opposite to the first bottom surface and away from the lens, a snap portion configured to snap the lens shade with the casing, and a light incoming pathway running through the lens shade to allow external light to enter the lens. The light incoming pathway includes a first light inlet formed at the first bottom surface and a second light inlet formed at the second bottom surface. A size of the second light inlet is greater than a size of the first light inlet.
