    Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes an interchangeable lens, and a camera body. The interchangeable lens includes a correction lens, a lens driver, and a first controller. The camera body includes an image sensor, a sensor driver, and a second controller. The first or second controller selects one of the interchangeable lens and the camera body, in accordance with a level of correction capability to perform the image stabilization. Corresponding to the selected one, one driver of the lens driver and the sensor driver performs the image stabilization for the image blur within a predetermined range. The other driver corresponding to non-selected one performs the image stabilization for a remaining portion of the image blur exceeding the predetermined range.

    Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes: a shake detector that detects a shake amount of at least one of an interchangeable lens and a camera body; an image stabilization unit that performs an image stabilization by moving at least one of a correction lens and an imaging device by an image stabilization amount obtained based on the shake amount; a storage unit that stores drive limit range information that indicates a relationship between an aperture value and a drive limit range corresponding to the interchangeable lens; and a controller. The drive limit range includes a range where the at least one of the correction lens and the imaging device is to be moved by the controller, and in the drive limit range, a light attenuation rate is less than or equal to a predetermined value. The controller sets the aperture value based on the drive limit range information and causes the image stabilization unit to perform the image stabilization, when a shooting mode is not a first mode that allows designation of the aperture value.

    Abstract: An image pickup device includes an optical system including a plurality of lenses, an imaging element that captures a subject image formed by the optical system, and a peripheral light quantity correction unit that corrects peripheral light quantity of an image captured by the imaging element. The image pickup device also includes a shake detector that detects shake of the image pickup device, and a drive controller that moves at least one of (i) the plurality of lenses and (ii) the imaging element on a plane perpendicular to an optical axis in response to an output signal of the shake detector to correct the shake. The peripheral light quantity correction unit extracts a predetermined frequency component of the shake and changes a correction amount of the peripheral light quantity in response to the predetermined frequency component of the shake.

    Abstract: An imaging apparatus capable of communicating with an external control device and configured to capture a subject image formed via an optical member includes a communication interface and a controller, wherein the controller starts the driving of the optical member based on a first command received from the control device via the communication interface, and wherein when the communication interface receives from the control device a second command different from the first command before completion of driving control of the optical member, the controller updates a target position as a target of driving the optical member based on the second command.
