Abstract

A lens module arranged on a light-sensing surface of a sensor module is disclosed. The lens module includes at least one lens stacked along an optical axis and the lens includes a lens fixing element and a plurality of lens elements. The lens fixing element is provided with a plurality of through holes each receiving a corresponding one of the lens elements, and an edge of the lens elements is secured to the lens fixing element. According to the present invention, each of the through holes has the same shape as a corresponding one of photosensitive regions of the light-sensing surface, as well as a side wall spaced from the photosensitive region in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis by a relatively uniform gap. In the present invention, there is also provided a camera comprising such a lens module.
