The size of the openingof the shutter base plateis set, considering driving amounts of the image sensorand the low pass filterduring shake correction, so that the size of the openingin X-axis direction (Y-axis direction) is set equal to or larger than the sum of the size of the low pass filterand the maximum moving amount of the low pass filterin the X-axis direction (Y-axis direction). Specifically, the length Lx of the openingof the shutter base platein the X-axis direction, and the length Ly thereof in the Y-axis direction respectively satisfy the following equations:+2&#x394;+2&#x394;where X represents the length of the low pass filterin the X-axis direction, Y represents the length of the low pass filterin the Y-axis direction, &#x394;x represents the maximum moving amount of the low pass filterin the X-axis direction with respect to the centering position, and &#x394;y represents the maximum moving amount of the low pass filterin the Y-axis direction with respect to the centering position.
