Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes a substrate including an imaging element, one or two attachment portions that attach the substrate by screwing and are capable of inclining a board surface of the substrate, by screwing in a screw, relative to a plane perpendicular to an optical axis of an optical system that forms an optical image on the imaging element; and one or more supports configured to abut the substrate from an opposite direction to a screwing direction of the attachment portion at any position, on the substrate, that rotates in the screwing direction of the attachment portion when the board surface is inclined by screwing. As a result, an imaging apparatus that allows an imaging element to be installed at a desired position and orientation while reducing the size of the substrate is provided.
