An imaging apparatus having an imaging element which photoelectrically converts a photographic object image at a photoelectric conversion face, an optical member provided on a front face of the element and which forms an image of the object image on the face, an oscillation element which oscillates the member, an oscillation element driving means which makes the oscillation element oscillate according to each of oscillation modes having different oscillation forms, a foreign object specifying means which specifies a position of a foreign object attached to the optical member based on image data of a white screen imaged by the imaging element, and an oscillation control means which selects an oscillation mode where the foreign object is present at a peak portion of the oscillation form, based on the foreign object specified by the foreign object specifying means, and changes an oscillation condition of the oscillation mode.
