Camera module and electronic equipment

The invention provides a camera module and electronic equipment, the camera module comprises a photosensitive element and a shell, and the shell covers the photosensitive element along the thickness direction of the photosensitive element. The photosensitive element is provided with two first side faces in the first direction, and at least one of the two first side faces is configured to be part of the outer surface of the camera module. Therefore, the size of the camera module in the first direction can be smaller under the condition that the camera module has the same photographing effect, or the size of the photosensitive element of the camera module in the first direction can be larger under the condition that the camera module has the same size in the first direction. Therefore, the photosensitive element has a larger photosensitive area, so that the camera module has a better photographing effect. 本申请提供了一种摄像头模组以及电子设备，其中，摄像头模组包括感光元件和壳体，壳体沿感光元件的厚度方向罩设于感光元件。感光元件具有在第一方向上的两个第一侧面，且两个第一侧面中的至少一个第一侧面被配置为摄像头模组的部分
