A shake amount detection device includes an acceleration sensor. A vibration period detector detects a vibration period during which vibration that becomes a predetermined acceleration is applied to a body. A velocity variation estimation unit estimates a first movement velocity which is a component velocity due to an attitude movement of the body during the vibration period. A velocity calculator calculates a second movement velocity that is a velocity of the body and corrects the second movement velocity in a case of the vibration period as a detection result of the vibration period detector. A shake amount calculator calculates an image blur correction amount relative to the vibration applied to the body, based on the second movement velocity corrected by the velocity calculator.
