Abstract

A simple focusable lens combination of a camera including a housing formed with a lens hole. A photosensor and a base board are disposed in the housing.

By means of moving the base board, one of the multiple lenses is selected to aim at the lens hole for focusing images of different distances onto the photosensor.
