摘要

A focusing and defocusing mechanism incorporated in a digital camera lens for simplifying the lens structure. The mechanism includes an outer lens barrel, a cam barrel having a slot of multiple slopes for adapting to the outer lens barrel, a guide pin affixed onto the outer wall of the outer lens barrel for rotating into the slot of the multiple slopes, and controlling elements affixed to the guide pin for controlling the distance and movement of the guide pin on the slot of multiple slopes.
