Lens retaining device and projection display apparatus
A lens retaining device includes a first shifter and a second shifter. The first shifter holds a lens and moves in a first direction perpendicular to an optical axis direction of the lens. The second shifter supports the first shifter and moves in a second direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction and the first direction. The first shifter includes a first main body moves in the first direction, a lens retainer that is provided on the first main body and retains the lens, and a first drive portion that moves the first main body. The lens retainer is integrally formed with the first main body.
