1. A method for assembling a camera comprising a sensor, a lens, and a housing, the method comprising:
attaching at least one of the sensor and the lens to a carrier, wherein the sensor is attached to a sensor carrier and the lens is attached to a lens carrier; arranging a connection plate in a retainer such that an opening in the retainer is aligned with an opening of the connection plate; attaching one or more retainers to at least one of the sensor carrier and lens carrier such that the opening of each retainer is aligned with an opening in the carrier to which the retainer is attached; inserting a first end of a peg in the opening of the connection plate, in the opening in the carrier to which the retainer is attached, and in the opening of one of the one or more retainers, the peg extending in a direction parallel to the optical axis of the lens, and a second end of the peg being attached to the housing; adjusting a position of at least one of the sensor and the lens such that the sensor is positioned at a predetermined angle in relation to an optical axis of the lens; laser welding the at least one of the sensor carrier and the lens carrier in relation to the housing such that the sensor and the lens are fixed in relation to each other; wherein the step of laser welding comprises laser welding the connection plate to at least one of the peg and one of the one or more retainers.
