1. An electronic device comprising:
a base member;
a reference member fixed to the base member;
an image sensor;
a holding member holding the image sensor and being held by the base member such that a distance from the reference member to the image sensor is changeable;
a biasing member generating a first force that biases the holding member in a direction in which the distance increases; and
a correction member providing, to the holding member, a second force acting against the first force,
wherein the second force changes due to deformation of the correction member depending on its temperature,
wherein the correction member and biasing member each have a spring constant, and
the spring constant of the correction member is greater than that of the biasing member.
