Abstract: Folded scanning zoom cameras comprising an optical path folding element (OPFE) and an OPFE actuator operative to rotate the OPFE around a first rotation axis and around a second rotation axis that is perpendicular to the first rotation axis to perform optical image stabilization (OIS) by more than ±1 degrees around respectively, a first OIA direction and a second OIS direction.

Abstract: Folded camera modules, comprising: an optical path folding element (OPFE) for folding light from a first optical path toward a second optical path that is substantially orthogonal to the first optical path; a lens with a lens optical axis along the second optical path and an effective focal length in the range of 5-40 mm; an image sensor; a module frame with an inner wall pointing towards the OPFE and having a module height HM, a module length LM and a module width WM; and an OPFE actuator for rotating the OPFE around a first rotation axis and around a second rotation axis that is perpendicular to the first rotation axis to perform optical image stabilization (OIS) by more than ±1 degrees around respectively, a first OIA direction and a second OIS direction, wherein a minimum distance YMin between the OPFE and the inner wall of the module frame in an extreme rotation OPFE position measured along a direction parallel to the second optical path fulfills YMin?2 mm, wherein YMin/LM?0.
