Abstract

A multi-lens camera module comprises at least two lens modules located side-by-side. Each lens module can be a voice coil motor (VCM) lens module having an auto-focusing (AF) or/and an optical image stabilizer (OIS) functions. The surface where two lens modules are adjacent with is called the neighbouring surface. A projection view on the neighbouring surface of a plurality of secondary driving magnets of these lens modules located at two sides of the neighbouring surface includes at least one secondary driving magnet which has two opposite edges with unequal length; in addition, shapes of these two opposite edges include at least one of the following: slope, arc and straight line. These secondary driving magnets are arranged across the neighbouring surface in a staggered manner.
