The present invention relates to a camera unit equipped in the mobile terminal, in more detail, relates to a camera unit and mobile terminal equipped therewith which can ensure the smooth camera action through reducing the frictional resistance of the rotation axis and the camera case when the camera rotates. The characterization of the camera unit includes the following parts: a camera case, a camera hull mounted on the camera hull which can rotate; a rotation axis, mounted on both side of the camera hull; a reduction of friction member, mounted between the rotation axis and the camera case for reducing the rotation frictional of the camera hull. The effect of the invention is to reduce the rotation resistance of the camera case, when the drive unit such as a motor etc is used to control the rotation, not only the power loss is reduced and has high dependability when the precise rotation action is requested. |
