1. A camera module comprising:
a camera housing;
a barrel structure comprising at least one lens aligned along a first optical axis direction and at least partially accommodated in the camera housing;
a guide unit at least partially accommodated in the camera housing and configured to guide the barrel structure to reciprocate along the first optical axis direction or reciprocate in a plane intersecting a first optical axis;
a driving unit including a first coil disposed on the camera housing, a first magnet disposed on the guide unit to at least partially face the first coil in a direction intersecting the first optical axis, second coils provided disposed on the camera housing or the guide unit, and second magnets disposed on the barrel structure to at least partially face corresponding one of the second coils in a direction intersecting the first optical axis;
a reflective member at least partially accommodated in the camera housing and configured to refract or reflect light incident through the at least one lens in a second optical axis direction intersecting the first optical axis; and
an image sensor disposed on the camera housing, aligned with the reflective member in the second optical axis direction, and configured to receive the light refracted or reflected by the reflective member,
wherein the reflective member is at least partially disposed between the first coil and one of the second coils.
