A lens held by a lens holding member is to be centered easily correctly. To this
end, a guide pin 21 is inserted into a guide hole 22 for positioning
the lens holding member 3 with respect to the main body unit of the lens
barrel 2 in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens 4
and for mounting the lens holding member for movement in a direction along the
optical axis. If, in this state, each of adjustment pins 26, rotationally
mounted on at least three sites on the outer peripheral surface of the main body
unit of the lens barrel 2, is rotated, an offset portion 29 of the
adjustment pin, offset relative to the center of rotation of the adjustment pin,
is rotated, as the offset portion is engaged in an engagement hole 32 of
the lens holding member 3, so that the lens holding member 3 on each
site is displaced in the direction along the optical axis to adjust the tilt of
the lens 4 held by the lens holding member 3.
