A varifocal mirror and a camera module comprising the same are disclosed. The varifocal mirror comprises a substrate, a thin film having a circumference supported by the substrate and a variable radius of curvature, and a reflective plane attached to the thin film to reflect light. The reflective plane has a radius of curvature varying in response to variation in the radius of curvature of the thin film. The camera module embodies focus and optical zoom functions via actuation of the varifocal mirror instead of using an electromagnetic actuator, a step motor and the like when adjusting positions of lens units, significantly reducing a volume of the overall system. With this structure, the camera module can be applied to various portable digital assistances requiring a minimized camera module, such as PDAs, mobile phones and the like. |
