Abstract

The invention concerns a small-size imaging apparatus (3) comprising a sensor (4) and an objective of focusing lenses (8, 9, 10) arranged in a frame (12). The sensor is fitted to a first surface (16) of the substrate (18) which has an opening (20) opposite which is arranged the photosensitive surface (6) of said sensor. Means are provided for positioning the objective when it is being mounted, in particular consisting of an optical element (10).
