The optical pickup actuator and an optical recording and / or reproducing apparatus

An optical pickup actuator includes a lens holder having an objective lens, the objective lens focusing a laser beam to the optical head actuator mounted on the optical information storage medium on the actuator. In the optical pickup actuator, the lens holder may be supported relative to the base member movably supported. The optical pickup actuator further comprises a magnetic circuit for independently driving the lens holder in the focusing direction and the oblique direction.
