Abstract

See full text

A lens driving device includes a lens holder that holds a lens, a driving portion that drives the lens holder through a magnetic force produced using a coil and a magnet, and a guide shaft that supports the lens holder movably. When moving the lens holder to a target position, an AC voltage is applied to the coil over a specific interval from a beginning of movement of the lens holder. Further, an amplitude of the AC voltage is reduced stepwise with the passage of time.
