Abstract: A camera module (8) includes a lens module (10), a focus correction element (20) disposed along optical axis of the lens module (10), an electrical control unit (30), and a temperature sensor (40). The focus correction element includes a transparent flexible sheet (21), a transparent supporting plate (23), and a transparent medium (25) filled between the flexible sheet and the supporting plate. The focus correction element is electrically connected with the electrical control unit, which is also electrically connected with the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor detects a change in ambient temperature, and sends a temperature signal to the electrical control unit. The temperature signal is converted into an electric signal so as to actuate the distortion of the flexible sheet, and cause a change in the curvature of the transparent medium, thus resulting in a change in the focal length of the camera module canceling out a change in the lens module's focal length caused by temperature variation.

Because the reflection film is directly attached to the light guide plate, there is no gap and no attendant leakage of light.
