Abstract: A monitoring camera includes a camera unit that has a lens, a housing that has an opening facing a light incident surface of the lens and surrounds the camera unit with a gap which is formed between the housing and the camera unit, a light-transmissive cover that is attached to the opening with spaced apart from the lens to seal off the housing, a fan that is disposed in the gap and circulates an air in the gap, a ventilation hole that is bored in the housing and causes the gap to be open to an outside, a water-proof air-permeable film that covers the ventilation hole, a heater that is provided facing the gap and heats the air, and an infrared light irradiation device that is provided facing the gap and emits infrared light to the outside through the cover and radiates heat into the air.

Abstract: A monitoring camera sets ON or OFF of swing correction in accordance with setting information about whether or not the swing correction of an image (that is, captured image) captured by an image sensor is performed, and corrects swing by cutting out a part of the captured image based on a swing detected value of a vibration sensor in a case where the swing correction is set ON. The monitoring camera outputs the captured image while maintaining a state thereof in a case where the swing correction is set OFF.
