<p>The image pickup apparatus comprises a holder (8) for holding optical parts; and a holder holding member (9), a part of which is engaged with the holder (8), for holding a package (7) enclosing an image pickup device (4) in an engaged state. A first engagement portion (11) provided for the holder (8) and a second engagement portion (12) provided for the holder holding member (9) are engaged with each other to sandwich the package (7) from the upper and lower sides, and at least one of the holder (8) and the holder holding member (9) has a structure by which the holder (8) and the holder holding member (9) are pressed against each other, thereby integrating the package (7) and the optical parts. By the arrangement, a condition which limits the shape of the package is eliminated, and the image pickup apparatus having excellent strength in integration between the optical system and the package, excellent light shielding performance, the reduced number of parts, and the reduced number of assembling steps is obtained. <IMAGE></p> |
