A camera module includes a solid-state imaging device; a lens unit having
a lens for guiding light to the solid-state imaging device; a lens holder
for holding the solid-state imaging device, the lens holder including a
lens coupling section provided for adjusting the position of the lens,
such that a distance between the lens and the solid-state imaging device
becomes a prescribed focusing distance; and a shield cap for covering the
lens coupling section and the lens unit so as to allow the light to be
guided to the lens in the lens unit.
