Abstract
A lens mounting apparatus includes a base including an opening, wherein a lens including a connection part is inserted and attached, an annular frame including a notch provided on a part of an outer periphery, a socket electrically connected to the connection part of the lens, and a first elastic member provided to urge the socket from the outer periphery toward a center of the annular frame. The annular frame is configured to fix the lens inserted and attached into the base by rotating the annular frame in one direction by a predetermined angle. When the annular frame does not fix the lens, the notch does not face the socket. When the annular frame fixes the lens, the notch faces the socket, and the socket is electrically connected to the connection part of the lens by an urging force of the first elastic member.
