To provide a digital camera which is thinner than conventional when a lens barrel
is collapsed, and is improved in suppression of degradation of image quality due
to dust or the like introduced into the lens barrel. A lens barrel has: an optical-member
advancement/retraction mechanism that retracts any of plural optical members from
an optical axis for picture taking when the lens barrel is collapsed, and advances
the optical member, which is retracted when the lens barrel is collapsed, onto
the optical axis for picture taking when the lens barrel is extended; and a cleaning
member that cleans at least either of the optical member or one, which is adjacent
to the optical member, of the plural optical members and a solid-state image pickup
section as a result of retracting or advancing the optical member by the optical-member
retraction/advancement mechanism.
