WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/210883

A1

Disclosed is an electronic device. The electronic device comprises: a housing of which at least a portion includes a surface facing a Z-axis direction; and a camera module disposed inside the housing to receive external light through the surface of the housing. The camera module comprises: a camera housing; and a camera assembly which includes a plurality of lenses, a lens barrel surrounding the plurality of lenses, and an image sensor, and of which at least a portion is disposed inside the camera housing, the camera assembly being configured to rotate about a rotational center point formed therein. The camera module includes a basic state in which an optical axis of the plurality of lenses is parallel to a z-axis, and a rotation state in which the optical axis of the lenses forms a predetermined angle with the z-axis. The plurality of lenses includes a first lens furthest from the rotational center point in an optical axis direction of the lenses. In each of the basic state and the rotation state, the first lens may be formed such that at least a portion of the surface thereof is positioned higher in the Z-axis direction than the lens barrel. In addition, various embodiments identified through the specification are possible.
